The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/how-the-60s-changed-america-for-the-worse\/\" title=\"How The &#039;60s Changed America For The Worse\">author shares personal experiences<\/a> in a deep-blue region where they frequently engage in discussions about \u2062race and Trump. They illustrate a common exchange where one \u200bperson claims\u2063 Trump is a racist \u200cand the other challenges that\u2063 assertion by asking for specific policies\u200c that demonstrate this racism. The conversations often \u2064end abruptly when the facts become uncomfortable or the\u200b evidence is questioned.<\/p>\n<p>The author highlights a \u2064recurring narrative in which Trump supporters \u2062are labeled as potential\u2062 threats, with \u2064rhetoric suggesting Trump would intern his opponents, akin to sending them to\u200c camps. They argue that such \u200cfears persist despite past behavior showing \u2063that those fears were unfounded. This cycle of accusations and fear, they contend, \u200bhas no basis in reality and continues without challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the piece suggests that political discourse is dominated by entrenched narratives that do \u200bnot change regardless\u200b of the actual situation\u200b or outcomes, leaving little room for\u2063 rational discussion.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>In a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/redirect\/c354c00a-43ae-4633-b117-d49f44a9cdcf?j=eyJ1IjoiazY0aTEifQ.satm_hK_k8vRSDWSBIE8CVwg4ptQQeonCGvCDHbjQxs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">long thread<\/a>&nbsp;on his many discussions over the last year with Trump and Harris supporters, a Daily Wire editor drops this contrast down in the middle:<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>I live in a deep-blue zone, and I have these vibes-and-racism conversations several times a week. I learned today, face-to-face, that Donald Trump hates everyone who isn&rsquo;t white. I mean, he&nbsp;<em>despises<\/em>&nbsp;them. All of them. These conversations go like this:<\/p>\n<p>A: Trump is SUCH a f-cking&nbsp;<em>racist<\/em>, man. He hates everyone who isn&rsquo;t white. How can you even support someone like that?<\/p>\n<p>B: Why is he racist?<\/p>\n<p>A: Are you being serious right now?
