But I frankly also believe that for anyone who supposedly what Harris and Trump were selling and found the choice difficult then you’re kind of a moron. Ethically; logically… Zero sense. Yes, Stagnation is infinitely better than fascism intentionally sabotaging the system.
It’s not stagnation, to make that clear. The Dems were promising a slower slide into rock bottom (they coopted the Republican border wall if you remember that). That aside okay, and? That doesn’t contradict my point. You can consider voters morons, which I don’t agree with but let’s set aside. That is something and whether they were operating off incomplete information is something else; your argument here seems to be built on wishful thinking.
People need to remember… The demographics of Lemmy let’s just say aren’t even remotely reflective of the American electorate.
I mean yes but the idea that the average voter is an uneducated, critical thinking-lacking sack of potatoes who never thinks about politics beyond election day is also wrong. The median voter maybe, but the average voter no. The average voter is an average; the concept includes everything from progressives to far right MAGAsz and I’ll note that part of the reason Biden won in 2020 was his popularity with the former. To take Gaza for example, there’s this poll. People are paying attention more than you seem to be thinking.
Wow that article is damning. As a feeling, thinking human being, I hate what Israel has done. But I am shocked that it was on non-voters’ minds so powerfully. I encourage everyone to check out that link above. It’s not just a poll, it’s an article that answers questions you may have about bias etc.
