funny part about “Kamala campaign can’t target men” is that they can’t target men because they refuse to employ the crass humor needed to effectively target the kind of men they currently fail to target. They know what they have to do, they simply aren’t strong enough to do it.

They lost because they won’t say slurs. People are not ready for this conversation.

Hadn’t thought of this before, but it makes sense. Men just won’t take you seriously if you’re offended by or scared of words.

Straight from one of the shittier parts of the fediverse.

    Same issue. Basically no one knew who Lina Khan outside of lemmy or reddit.

    She was the best FTC head in our nation’s history, but got basically zero press out of niche online spaces. She was in no way a factor in swinging votes.

      Working-class voters may not have known who Lina Khan was, but they definitely got the “vibes” that Trump was at least pretending to care about them in a way that Harris was absolutely not.
