        @[email protected] In the future, you need to include this kind of context in the post’s body. Any kind of editorializing you do to the article’s title needs to be backed up by a credible source in the body, but especially if the entire LAMF component hinges on context outside of the article you’re linking to.

          LAMF citation context needed as well

          (Im being silly sorry, but I actually didn’t know what LAMF means)

      I was prepared to argue with you on this, but after reading the article, you’re right. It never says he supported trump or voted for him. The closest thing I can see them using for that assumption on their part was that he opposed vaccine mandates in 2021. I understand the venn diagram of people that opposed vaccines and supported trump was almost a perfect circle, but ALMOST doesn’t really say it definitively.

        Him living in a town of 202 people in the Deep South while homeschooling his kids and living in deep poverty is a pretty solid indicator too but he could just as easily be an ultra libertarian or sovereign citizen nut too

        My anti-vax brother voted Hillary in 2016, Biden in 2020, and Harris in 2024.

        But we aren’t white, which is probably the #1 reason why he didn’t just become a fully unhinged conservative.

        Just because someone is a democrat, doesn’t mean they can’t simultaneously hold beliefs rooted in conspiracy theories.
