What? Me? Really?
That seems like propaganda on almost every level.
First, and most obviously, instead of using straight percentages of 100, the meme uses 400 to magnify the numbers,
Second, the 9% without health insurance implies they are witthout health care, or that health insurance makes health care affordable. Neither is true. Nor is it true that 91% of Americans can afford medical costs.
Also, 21% of Americans are not illiterate. They are low literacy, like TV news readers, or sports stars, or the folks working at Burger King. But that's not illiterate. Exagerating the claim is pure spin. I taught high school English in the Deep South. I can assure you that 20% of my students were not illiterate.
That 23% of Americans experience some form of mental illness would include 18% classified as not seriously mentally ill, so may have mild depression, panic attacks, anger management issues, etc. Suggesting that 1 in 5 Americans is seriously mentally ill is intentionally misleading, and not credible.
The one shot is a lie statistically. In 2024, 72,000 Americans were shot, including fatal and non-fatal events. Over a base of 340 million souls, that means only one in 5,000, not one in 400.
Finally, the meme suggests that conservatives went looking for a target in the trangender politics of the 21st century. Most people would argue that LGBTQ advocates advanced Trans rights as the next goal in the legal fight for equality, but in so doing, put a huge target on the backs of trans Americans as the flag bearers of LGBTQ rights. The conservatives had to do very little to voice the sentiments of the majority who do not agree with the identitly issues of trans Americans.
Did they exploit it to political advantage? Absolutely, but we made it too easy for them.
