hey does everybody remember like 3 years ago when the head of facebook's truth and ethics board or whatever whistleblew about how facebook would only combat disinformation in english and global political destabilization caused by facebook disinformation is still rampant in every language other than english? (and also about teenage girls' body image issues).

okay and remember how she was fired and nothing was done about it because content moderation costs money? and remember how they disbanded their truth and ethics board immediately after?

okay do we think this might have had an impact on the election and the american latine vote? is it possible that spanish language disinformation has been festering under the surface for the last 10 years and not that there is something mysteriously wrong with an entire demographic?

The Role of Hispanic Voters in the 2024 Elections

The Liberal media outlets are all doing damage control for Kamala Harris, as she is now the presumptive Democrat Nominee for President.

They are trying to re-write history, especially on the issue of the Border and her position as the "Border Czar." At one time, they all repeated the fact she was the Czar, but now that she is running for President, the dismal border facts are not the image they want to portray.

Fortunately, we Republican Latinos know a lie when we see one. We know she FAILED us at the border, and is responsible for the horrendous conditions at the southern border.

At one time, Latinos supported Democrats blindly, voting at over 70% for Democrat President, Barak Obama. But the shift is happening, and Latinos are leaving the Democrat Party, unable to support the radical Socialist agenda which is now Democrat policy.

It's one thing to leave the Democrat Party, yet another to support the man they consider to be the biggest threat to democracy, former President, Donald J. Trump. But this is exactly what's happening.

We asked Latino Republicans from across the country, "What about Trump makes you support him?

Carlos Santos, recently elected Republican Chairman for Union County, NJ, says, "President Trump is an everyday person who relates to blue-collar workers and the everyday person. Trump is the first politician to accomplish what he said he was going to do."

Alex Reyes, a Conservative activist and U.S. Army Veteran is located in Virginia, the epicenter of American politics. He fights to overcome the liberal media and their agenda. He is a content creator and true patriot. "Faith, Democrats have mocked Christianity for far too long this century than white supremacists have regarding race," he says is one of the main reasons he supports Trump. "Also, the incompetence of the Democrat party, as seen with the near assassination of Trump," he adds.

Aram Hernandez, a Republican activist in Texas, was fired up about Trump in 2016, and is even more convinced Trump is the right man to pull us out of the downward spiral we are in now. "His America First message and also the policies he ran on were most important to me, and he accomplished almost all of them. He did what he said he was gonna do," said Hernandez. Also, "Sticking up for the American people like when he told NATO that them not paying their fair share and letting the American taxpayer make up the difference was no longer gonna fly."

We Latinos have many reasons to support President Donald J. Trump in 2024, and these are just a glimpse into the reason why Trump will win more and more Latino votes.

Winning

Latino Voters Choose Trump

They’re moving to Donald Trump and as far away from the vice president as they can.

Just 28% of men back Harris’ campaign, compared with a whopping 59% who support Trump, a metric that contributes heavily to the former president’s 47% to 43% lead overall.

Harris has only 29% job approval among men against 59% disapproval, further cementing the impression “Dudes for Harris” could have their meetings in phone booths — assuming any are to be found in the Peach State.

Democrats are really behind on this and need to work on getting the message out!

For a postelection analysis of how and where Democrats fell short in 2024, the New Republic’s Greg Sargent visited Reading, Pennsylvania—the majority-Latino, long-Democratic city that saw a significant swing in support toward Donald Trump this election cycle, even as Kamala Harris carried the bulk of the votes. Sargent points to myriad factors that likely cut into Latinos’ traditional Democratic support (inflation, immigration, Trump’s name-recognition advantage) but saves an especially noteworthy contributor for the very end: the Spanish-language right-wing propaganda machine.

“It’s now clear that the Democratic Party’s undeniable deficit in the information wars, in which Republicans benefit from a massive media propaganda network while dominating more apolitical cultural information spaces, extends to Latino voters in a very big way,” Sargent writes.

America needs MAX PARTICIPATION for the economic blackout this Friday. This thing is snowballing fast because so many reasons are popping up for why people are doing it (including some "what it's really about" lists). A short list:

-inflation/the egg thing

-protesting the trend of corporations getting bigger and richer and more powerful while normal people are finding it harder and harder to keep up with the cost of living

-protesting corporations who heard Trump say diversity is out and went "Oh thank God" and immediately dropped (sorry, "didn't renew") their DEI policies, their support for the LGBTQ+ community, all of it

-protesting consumerism/huge corporations in general

-Trump giving a giant chainsaw of power to Musk and they are literally having fun with it

-the giant, reckless cuts Trump is making in general

-Jon Schwarz started a grassroots movement for government accountability and corporate reform and is going to make a million bucks this week selling Tshirts of his Blackout Tour

-moderate Republicans, Trump leavers, and even Trump supporters are starting to realize that Trump needs reining in from every angle possible because wow.

IT DOESN'T MATTER, at least not on Friday. The point is that the energy this has gathered is part of a wider pool of protests, boycotts, spending freezes, etc. that are gathering steam fast. And that's a good thing, because this Friday, Feb 28th, has become a productive, nonviolent flashpoint. There is so much anger and fear building right now in America and this is a good, healthy way for it to emerge. But if participation is too spotty, it will lead to absolutely nothing.

So please, less gatekeeping and more welcoming. Honestly, for the sake of max participation, if even one of these reasons matter to you, or matters to people that you care about, please participate.

Tl;dr: What is Friday really about? It's about momentum. Please, participate.

trump winning mostly due to channeling the economic concerns of american voters into a better campaign (and probably also a few bomb threats) being blamed by hardline dems on arab/muslim/jewish voter treachery is pretty medieval europe coded i have to say

All I’m saying is a lot of Black people truly believe they have no allies now.

And they aren’t wrong to think that way.
