I thank we can develop state that our media landscape is beyond toxic. It’s apparent that much of our population is getting fed information through tik Tok, Facebook, and YouTube. Learning how to game the system like the alt-right does would be incredibly worthwhile.

Taxing the upper class was part of their platform though…so…still unsure as to where there against the “working class”.

Exactly. I think most of us have identified that the fucking corporate media can’t be trusted to be reliable. This is partially their fault for sane-washing Trump over and over again.

That said, there is resistance. Please check out the subreddit /r/SomethingIsWrong2024.

… there’s an argument to be made that…maybe they didn’t vote that way.

There’s some serious irregularities in the way votes are appearing in key battleground states. The number of bullet votes is insanely off (historically 0.1%, but somehow 7% in BG states), a historical amount of people voting blue down ballot but then voted Trump, the number of bomb threats called into ballot counting areas in BG states, and how all of the irregularities are only being found in BG states.

It makes you step back and say… something weird is going on here.

Ah yes, kindness, compassion, and empathy being considered “wokeness”. Can’t have that. Much better to have hate, disgust, and cruelty.

Yeah, I find I need to read a book or find some other way to engage my brain - woodworking, painting, gardening, etc… The enjoyment comes back.

Here here!

Gummies are incredibly easy to make. I just made a batch 2 days ago that are sitting in my counter drying before I put a powdered sugar on the outside of them and stick them in the freezer. I use moulds so that I know EXACTLY how much I’m dosing. And the best part? I’m not destroying my lungs by any means.

I would agree…but he’s working under Trump. The second that Rubio is “too moderate” he’s going to ask Rubio to resign.

Love it.

As a dude, I will never allow anyone to ever talk like this to anyone else. No one is “an object”. The idea of it is insanity.

…yes…like very normal people…

…because taxing the rich, adding affordable daycare/child tax credits, a propose ban on price gouging, and other middle class incentives were abandoning the left…totes. The narrative that’s being pushed here is pretty bullshit. Her platform was on point for the middle class and below.

Sure. She campaigned in battleground states, more than any where else…but that was strategic. And it makes sense at the time.

Everyone just keeps saying “she abandoned the left” without adding literally any examples of it.

The DNC fucked up by not holding primaries, but Harris ran a pretty damn good game.

He gave them table scraps while feasting with his cronies (remember those COVID checks?).

Just look at what happened the farms after Brexit. Lol. That will tell you all you need to know.

I don’t believe that it is. I believe that the problem lies in the fact that we’re not communicating effectively with the voting base. Her policies we’re not bad and effectively DID target the working class, for example child care and expanding taxes on the upper class. Her economic policies were strong and we would have seen benefits. However, none of this matters if this information isn’t getting to the voter base.

Conservatives are actively targeting Gen Z and nonpoliticals with absolutely bullshit lies - for example, staying that liberals are actually racist, that DEI is making things worse for people, and that our whole policy is based on insults and hatred. Of course, to anyone paying any attention, this is blatantly false…but to an outside viewer, whose struggling to make ends meet, who’s single and insular, whose constantly told that women have it rough (and nothing about how to deal with men’s problems) they find the conservative arguments start to gain roots.

We want to win next time? We need to talk to people. Tell them what being a man really means. That empathy, not control, is what a society like the US should be based on.

Hey, so the 15 million thing isn’t true. That was the number before all of the votes came in. She actually gained votes in battleground states, but lost them in non-battleground states (states that didn’t really matter). Just a heads up. We need to be using facts here (not trying to attack, just trying to get that information out).

I can’t believe there’s even a risk of people voting in someone as morally repugnant as Trump.
