this study is garbage and is focused on how “christian nationalism” is affecting politics, hence the bizarre breakdown (and extreme lack of young people in the report, and with no generational breakdown in a few specific questions including this one, and no breakdown at all for class, income, urban/rural/suburban, or anything, etc.) this whole research non-profit is religious-focused.

but in general, one of the most effective mobilizing rhetorics for the Republicans right now is tying petty bourgeois racist paranoiac tropes (gangs, crime, etc.) to economic working class problems of capitalism which democrats ignore; having it folded into general nationalist false-consciousness trends (which the report does show in its ~5000 people old-religious sample economic concerns over housing and cost of living are the highest concern for people) — the classic conservative ‘they’re competing for our jobs,’ ‘they’re taking all the housing and the democrats are giving it to them,’ ‘they’re the reason you can’t afford x y z,’ ‘they’re driving up taxes while you can barely afford to survive,’ etc. which is a cornerstone of Trump’s campaign. Again the report is TTRASSSHHH and doesn’t tell us who among these percentages are working class or bourgeois, definitely includes no homeless or lumpen, barely includes young people and often avoids breaking down percentages even with what they have, so it’s hard to know anything about the dynamics there in the 5000 sample size that this organization has the gall to extrapolate to “percent of all Americans” and get taken at face value by people. But It’s a big focus of Trump campaign that as much as he does the petty-bourgeois paranoiac racism about immigrants eating dogs and bringing guns (lol the cartels get their guns from us not the other way around) he scapegoats them for housing shortages and cost of living increases and tax costs which are real points of struggle for working people. As well as his fantasy that tariffs will bring jobs back to lumpenized post-industrial towns that are in some cases not much better off as far as opportunity, drugs, crime, capital flight and brain drain, etc. than city slum areas. Which again, who knows if any of these areas are represented in this dogshit study at all.

As always, needs drilled more on that there are already more vacant homes than homeless and its banks and real-estate capitalists who sit on them, the same capitalists who the bourgeois politicians in both parties work for and are financed by and working to break down false consciousness for real class consciousness. Basic communist proletarian tasks of agitation, education, and organization around the real causes of the problems. It’s similar to the weaponization of the heinous capitalist gouging in medical care to attack trans people ‘they can get xyz but insulin/whatever is [cost]’ as if the question is ‘one or the other’ and not ‘stop dividing with bigotry and join action-coalitions with the trans-rights groups who had some successes in places to fight for access to insulin and all of these things’. it’s false consciousness
