This thing you wrote in another thread probably applies the opposite way here: > [@Is James Lindsay's description of Wokeness accurate?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-james-lindsays-description-of-wokeness-accurate/925177/127): > > I think the core problem comes down to simply this: No one is surprised to find assholes in a white-supremacist movement; There is an expectation that you’ll find far fewer of them in a woke movement. No one is surprised to find assholes supporting Trump, so they don’t stand out as much. But Republicans can get away with being assholes since they are mostly selling themselves on the basis of self interest. If you’re asking people to care about others you kinda have to live up to that. > [@Sam\_Stone](#): > > Hispanic people from different regions have rich and varied backgrounds just like everyone else, and they shouldn’t be lumped together under one label like that. It is a bit silly. Of course Latin Americans don’t all vote the same way in their home countries, so why would you expect the ones who’ve moved to the US to do so? --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-dont-understand-what-voters-trump-couldve-picked-up-between-2016-and-2020/924722)._
