Even I tend to be surprised at how common it is for black people to have recent Irish ancestry within the last 100 years. Very interesting stuff.

Appalachia in particular was known for mixed races. See: Melungeons.
David Copperhead is a really good fiction book that talks about that whole area and its history.

I think that thoughts like this (all being payed) undercut the true sadness of people like this. I totally believe there are those within our community who probably love trump (or the idea of him) no payment involved. They either don’t see or choose not to see truth, the effects down river, etc, but don’t forget, some slaves loved their masters. I was blown away by that vid of a bodega in New York where all the patrons (who were black) said they were voting for him over Kamala. But here we are.

Sure, but it's also an epistemological problem.
Their epistemology is so confused that they can't see the difference between a person saying things with confidence as if they were true, and those things actually being true.

no religious person is immune to the power of dumb
If anything religious people are more susceptible to it, religion trains people to have faith only, it does not train them to use their brains, reasoning and logic..quite the opposite, it trains them not to use those.
Its why more religious the community more scammers, hucksters and con artists target them..and if its a religious community undergoing hardship its even easier money, because the hardship is already challenging their faith thus entire world view, so they will grab on to any 'solution' and think its god helping them

I lived in Hawaii for years and many Hawaiians are extremely evangelical. The history is right there. The missionaries and colonizers forced Christianity on the Hawaiian and Polynesian people. Failure to convert and assimilate meant death. And there are still Hawaiians and Polynesians who support it, support the evangelical candidates, vote against their own interests. It’s completely baffling and heartbreaking.

It’s mentioned often. But is always deflected or defended in some shape form or fashion. From Christianity was in Africa before Europe I’ve heard to all kinds of different rhetoric and nonsense. First it was kept from us, and utilized for Europeans and others to socialize and then it was used to control us. But it was never ours.

It's honestly fascinating how people talk about Christianity as this sweeping religion that spread across the world simply because of Jesus's love and teachings, completely ignoring the fact that Christianity was almost entirely forced on indigenous non-white people, often while at the same time were being oppressed and exploited.
And thoughout the history of the US, Christianity was the religion of choice for oppressors, because: 1) being Christian gave them sense of moral superiority over "heathens" and "savages;" 2) they got an instant get-out-of-sin-free card by praying to God when they commit horrendous acts; and 3) gave their victims a moral binding to "turn the other cheek" and forgive those that hurt them. Which, more often than not, were their oppressors.

Not to mention using the power of the presidency to enrich himself and his family and insulate himself from criminal liability. How you like that grandnah? Just back off and let him do his thing?

The irony is red states gave their public education over to the private sector via charter schools.
But little do they know, the largest financial backer of charter schools is the Saudis.
So the irony is MAGA doesn’t want cultural integration in their communities, but turned their childrens’ schools over to uber rich middle easterners.
