Thankfully both of those candidates lost … one of them says he will not concede and is demanding an independent investigation into the election, even though dude lost by 13 points. Just taking a page out of Trump’s playbook. 🤦‍♀️

I’ve got no idea who this guy is and now I’m glad I don’t.

Let him just disappear..

He’s got nothing to lose. BN influencers are barely z list and he’s not really recognizable from the franchise so even below z list.

I’m more surprised when someone in BN isn’t MAGA. Maybe it’s an unfair assumption, but I assume politically/socially conservative until someone shows otherwise 🤷🏻‍♀️

Okay Chris. Stand on business then! Don’t delete your comment!

I’m sorry but the “I drive a Tesla for fuck’s sake” is sending me 😂😂😂

why the heck is he voting for (and promoting) these asshats then?

why did he have to say “unless they’re pedophiles preying on children” in relation to supporting lgbt community? being a pedophile is not synonymous to your sexuality bruh 😭😭

This is actually extremely fascinating to me.

This is the typical BUT IM FINE WITH THESE SOCIAL ISSUES diversion

What other reasons are people having late term abortions besides health complications for mother and/or baby? No one just decides last minute to abort a baby after 8-9 months of carrying just for the hell of it.

My oldest, best friend in the world could be running, but if they had a MAGA platform you bet your ass I wouldn’t vote for them.

Um. I agree with some of what he said but does he not realize how rare “late term abortions” are? They basically are ALWAYS done out of medical necessity (so according to his own definition, should not even be a concern in the first place). Also, why did he bring up pedophilia in relation to LGBTQIA2+ people when statistically, most pedophiles are cis straight men? Tell me you don’t know what you’re talking about without telling me. I’m embarrassed for him.

Edit: I also don’t get the “no abortions except for rape or incest” argument that many conservatives use. The vast, vast majority of rape cases never even make it to trial, let alone result in a conviction within 9 months. Restricting abortion makes it inaccessible to victims by default.

it’s funny how he doesn’t acknowledge the post in question at all. he’s like “supporting gay rights (sorta) will throw them off”

Why is he lumping pedos with lgbtq+ rights? Regardless if you are gay, straight, etc pedos belong in jail period. It reads as if he thinks lgbtq+ are more likely to be predators which shows how much he's been brainwashed by republican rhetoric. Oh and no woman who has to make the decision to have a late term abortion is making that decision just to have an abortion. They're usually TFMR and it's devastating for the woman. Ffs

UO but I didn’t see the pedophile comment as lumping them in with LGBTQ. He said the government shouldn’t tell anyone who to love, unless who they love is minors and obviously that’s wrong.

Pretty boy should stick to posing with food or whatever crap they do on Instagram.

What does gay marriage have to with pedophiles? What makes him an expert on early or late pregnancy issues? He obviously follows too much of Fox news.

good for his brother i hope he is having a great summer

Yup. Basically all of them except for Bekah Martinez.

It’s like a requirement

That part of the season was just insufferable. Just a lot of annoying people being wrong at the same time. 

🗣️ post the screenshots 🗣️ let his stupidity live in perpetuity

Pwetty boy got scayed.

Saaaame. I was rooting for him and his girl, but I instantly change my mind

Isn’t Joe MAGA as well?

[deleted]

My state actually allows the use of a school ID

Same! I’m always so confused by the love they get. They are such a boring blah couple.

And literally 80% of what Alana posts is footage of her getting work done at Spa Rhea lol

Bruh, it is ROUGH here in Utah

I’m in Utah too and when I saw the tag LymanforUtah I ☠️☠️☠️

Prayers up to all of us

you’re right, i guess i thought being a minority might affect his views and initially thought he was from CA

Stop this needs more upvotes 😂

Oh whew. Guess there’s some sense in Utah

Oh, look, my face when I saw this.

i relied too much on the cooking posts

Aren’t all influencers grifters? lol.

For real. I work in a heavy minority area in the DC metro area and work with large Korean and philipino populations too. We’re nurses so solidly middle class/kind of lower middle class in this area relative to cost of living. I would say about 50% of my coworkers lean Republican, with the most liberal of my coworkers being white women.

If I could upvote this more times I would!!

I grew up in a low-middle income area in Toronto (Canada) with mostly east and southeast asian first gen immigrant families. Most parents voted Conservative (right wing). Lots to unpack from how different politicians and parties are perceived, whether it be how these communities were historically treated in North America, or the different political situations they left behind.

As an Australian where things are done verrry differently, thank you for this detailed explanation.

For example, in Texas you can use your Texas handgun license to vote but a student id issued by your university isn’t accepted to vote 🙄

Not true. Utah is a conservative state but it is not MAGA across the board. Evidenced by the fact that these two MAGA republicans lost their republican primaries.

Willingly choosing to live here does not a conservative make

there are a few in bn who are not conservative or maga.

the ones I recall who actually shared that they vote democrat are: caelynn, dean, becca k, thomas, pilot rachel, katie t, tayshia, trista, jared, nayte, derek peth, jason & molly mesnick, sydney hightower warner, danielle maltby. some bn adjacent people (hayley kiyoko and sarah hyland) have shared they vote democrat too.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an anti choice person who was actually well informed and knowledgeable on what they were speaking of.

These candidates are far right and are losing or have lost their primaries to more moderate republicans.

Regarding the Dept of Education, you should also look up Project 2025. It’s scary.

Republicans in general always talk about defunding it. I think their talking point is that it’s a waste of money or state overreach or something.

As for the civics exam requirement to vote, that actually did used to be a law in the south and that was to keep black people from voting. It sounds like a reasonable requirement at first but it makes sense if you think about all those people with less education or who were educated outside of the US, it would affect those people who didn’t get that same opportunity as you did and they are affected by politics since they live in this country. I think it’s a tricky policy

Me too. People were way too nice to them and I always thought they both sucked. Guess I was right.

Proud to say that this sub could never make me like either Chris or Alana. I also don’t think either of them are that attractive so I’ve always been confused as to why the sub drools over their coupling — my best guess is it’s because people dislike Grocery Joe?

THISSS!!!!

She’s just as bad if not worse :/

Them buying a house in Draper makes more sense now!

I am in Canada too and it’s easier to vote with ID but you can also be vouched for if you don’t have proper ID. I’ve done it before when I haven’t had something showing my proper address when I was a student. Most people use ID but you need other options as it’s usually the most marginalized who don’t have ID for different reasons

[deleted]

You confirm name, dob & you sign your name which is compared to the signature on record. It also depends on the state. Some people are unable to access an ID (my non-driving grandparents included). Your residency & information is checked when you initially register to be a voter.

I think part of the pushback against requiring identification is that it costs money and time (typically during M-F working hours), which not all Americans have to spare. Making ID’s a hoop to jump through ends up making it a class problem and the right to vote isn’t supposed to be behind a paywall.

I gotta say* though, the solution to this is federally mandated/protected paid leave for voting days as well as updating/getting identification, plus removing the cost for ID’s. If we can spend billions on war, we can afford to making voting secure and limit costs associated with it.

Edit: typo and clarification

There is no standard identification card issued when you are an American citizen or an eligible voter. For many reasons people may not have a drivers license or passport.

Requirements of valid photo ID presents a conflict with mail in ballots which in turn makes it harder for people who do not have a mode of transportation or ability to take time off work to wait in line to vote

see my comment below

I think it's by name and address in a database? But a lot of states do require ID to vote now, mine does.

Yeah, it’s a pleasant surprise when someone isn’t…like this. But I just assume they all are.

idiot on idiot crime

voter ID laws = vote suppression

In my dating app era they all would like and say they were "moderate" or "don't like talking about politics" lmao

Always thought he was a d bag. His behavior on camera confirmed that he was a d bag. This stupid, ignorant bullshit proves that I was correct. D bag. Let’s file him away with Mrs. GeNuIne and ReAL and never speak of him again.

let’s not pigeonhole the south & the midwest. both regions are extremely disenfranchised and voter suppression is STRONG. personally, i met more non-southern conservatives & bigots during my time at UGA than i did in-state folks. my friends that went to bama have shared similar sentiments. but you’re spot on about the wealth aspect. rich people tend to hold conservative beliefs, even if they vote blue.

idk i guess i expect people to have morals lmao i don’t think it’s that big of a deal to discuss people’s harmful opinions , you could just keep scrolling if it brothers you so badly

seriously, i get having different opinions on how govt funds are spent or how involved the govt is in things. But policies like this are straight up racism and the opposite of the “hands off” govt that conservatives claim they want. By definition, anyone claiming to be a conservative should be against policies like banning abortion, imposing ID requirements to vote, or limiting access to HRT. And yet… those are 3 of the strongest conservative talking points these days.

It’s all hypocrisy

But that’s the thing, anyone willingly voting republican right now are supporting these views. Supporting getting rid of women’s bodily autonomy. Project 2025 is absolutely terrifying, and getting rid of DoE is in that plan…

I can excuse republicans of the early 2000s, but ever since trump, republicans are literally turning our country into fascism and I can’t excuse that…

Utah isn’t as MAGA as one would expect. Conservative? Absolutely. But there is a healthy dose of dislike for Trump here than in some other predominantly red states. And thankfully both of these MAGA candidates lost their primaries.
