How do you know how many people who didn’t vote did so because of protest?
6 MILLION MORE PEOPLE voted for Biden than Harris. That’s a lot of people who just magically disappeared for reasons other than protest by your count. They weren’t just undecided swing voters, either, because Trump’s votes barely changed at all between 2020 and 2024.
Whaaaaat…?
The party who put a coal lobbyist in charge of the EPA for Trump’s entire previous term did this…?
Nooooo.
/sarcasm
So you’re making the additional distinction of only people who currently actively serve in the IDF and not any previous members?
Theres a technique called deep canvassing where you don’t question the second parties beliefs or tell them things but instead build empathy, make the conversation about them, ask them about themselves, and then tell them things they probably didn’t know as a way to let them decide for themselves that they were wrong before.
If a person thinks a car is purple but it’s actually beige an expert could ask about their car and their own car and how they have similar costs or routine maintenance to form a connection, then talk about the sources of pigments and introduce indexes or catalogues of colors, and the person would see on their own how purple relates to blue and red and how beige relates to yellow and come to the correct conclusion on their own.
Independent Party Bernie Sanders was invited to participate on the DNC presidential tickets on multiple occasions and in 2016 he earned over 13 Million Votes compared to Hillary Clinton’s 16 Million.
If 4 Million more people voted for Bernie Sanders then he would have been the name on the Democrats ticket at the top of ballots across the nation.
The DNC had absolutely no incentive nor obligation to run Bernie in their primaries, they like his policies and gave voters the option to have him represent them as our president.
TBH I kind of like small dogs. If trained with proper strictness and authority they’re just as likely to attack babies and small animals as a big dog but far less capable of doing harm. I wouldn’t trust dogs with their own litters, I barely trust people to be rational so I would never expect a dog to just “be good.”
If you want more data there is also Congress which is only 28% female, and historically there were far less. I think the sentiment I saw in a lot of republicans wasn’t that they supported Trump all that much, but that they opposed Hillary and Harris.
What exactly makes you say Joe Biden was a better candidate than either as far as those bullet points?
Got it so if you had a list of the top 5 candidates and Bernie were in the list then you would get really upset that somebody claimed he was top 5 and not top 1 or 2?
28% of congress is female, 50.5% of the general population and their ratio gets higher in the average age group that corresponds to congress’. The percentage of people enthusiastic about a female president is down since 2015, a third of voters today say they are not ready for a female president.
We’re not talking about convincing a population of unbiased, nonprejudiced people. We’re talking about convincing a nation full of hateful assholes. A lot of republican voters will mobilize solely to keep women out of power.
Umm actually, that didn’t argue counter to anything that I said.
Lmao Wooosh
"I’m gonna vote no, there’s no drama, we know the votes are going to go.”
TBH I was relieved to hear he wasn’t voting with the Republicans this time.
Idk if it’s too early to talk about it, but part of the process is definitely weighing the pros and cons.
My point being that no matter who we run there will be vicious smear campaigns attacking their character.
Alright but Obama was a man, so
She was at one point one of the most popular politicians in America, actually. She polled among the general population alongside Bernie Sanders. People decided she was awful once she started running for president and Social Media campaigns told everyone what to think about her.
I voted for the female candidates, they both lost. The gender divide in congress is 7:18, only 28% of elected federal representatives are women. Gen Z voters were divided along gender lines between Trump and Harris. I don’t know how to fix this problem, but ignoring it is not the solution.
If theres wolves in the mix, then no. They’re emotionally different from dogs, though they can be very loving they can express their loving nature by biting and holding onto people, not allowing them to leave without them.
I read a wonderful short story once about mankind venturing into the stars where they become a symbol of hope, friendliness, and community across all physical and psychological barriers. They would be the ones you turn to in times of crisis, to deliver aid and make repairs, to mediate in times of conflict and to bring joy in times of celebration.
However, occasionally, the humans would see one of their own ships adrift in the sea of stars, and they would stop at nothing to destroy it. The abrupt and merciless hostility would always shock onlookers and associates. “Why” they always ask. The answer was always the same; “when the earth was suffering, they used up our resources and left us behind.”
