Because Trump somehow allowed them to constantly express their worst personality traits and celebrated them for it. Now if someone is a Trump supporter they are loudly and proudly misogynistic, racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemetic, and a whole host of other bigoted. And sane people who have compassion for others don’t want to deal with that shit.

Back in the day people used to hide this part of themselves because they were rightfully shamed for it. Now they get elected to congress for being socially gross.

Back in the day everyone was phobic. I remember fag being the most popular invective. Comedians were so cringe. I remember my mom joking and laughing about blacks on England national soccer team and throwing Jews jokes left and right.

People haggling on the street throwing racial slurs at each other.

I don’t know maybe I just don’t get out much nowadays. I may live in a shelter like fallout vault. People are more cultured though. So maybe that’s why many don’t like conservatives as a whole as opposed to then when it was the default
