(10,169 posts)I see it here in rural TN. They are smart, they aren't racist but they would never object if uncle Joe tells a racist joke. They aren't sexist but if their friend harrasses a woman they will ignore it.
They are stealth egalitarians. They would like to see a free and equal world but they don't think anything they do will make a difference.
I think if you point out the dangers of Trump crap it would stop and make these people think. Give them a narrative to hang their hat on of how Trump crap will hurt them and they will change. I mean these folks live and work with racist and crazy MAGATs and to them Trump is just another version of their racist crazy neighbor.
Perhaps these stealth egalitarians are your undecided. But they are really just not motivated to to stand up to the crazies.If we give them a reason they will take their egalitarian tendencies to the voting booth.
