A lot of the far right are millennials and Gen Z. While the proportions in different generations are different, this isn't purely a generational thing. The implied message is that we can "wait them out," but that is basically just the same as doing nothing. We can't do nothing. We have to motivate people to vote, and then get them to volunteer and have them get others to vote.
If that's what the map would look like if younger generations voted like 65+, then go get those people voting so we get that map next election.
That's such a great point.
I've been hearing this bullshit "Wait them out" message for 30+ years. There is no waiting out bad ideas and propaganda. You have to fight it with truth and activism.
There's also no waiting out groups who have no intention of maintaining even a semblance of a democratic Republic with participation, balanced arms of government, and blind justice.
But the exact same politicians have been in power for those 30+ years as well.
A blue map doesn't feel very good when the results are continued genocide, republican border bills, and "the most lethal military in the world".
I'm not saying don't vote blue, but lets not pretend young voters have much to be excited about.
Listen, one side supports holocaust and wants endless wars with no Medicare4All or minimum wage increases, and the otherside wants the same. The literal only candidate not to stick to that script is insane Trump who is problematic for all his own reasons. The real lesson is people would rather not vote than support someone shitty, and call me crazy but that I live in NYC and only see more Trump Flags and literal looks of disgust when mentioning Harris, has me pretty convinced shes gonna lose really badly, like this might be in history books next to to failure.
Ok you can go back to Truth Social now, you've done your part
And you part was what exactly? You contributed nothing and only double downed on the blue no matter who.
“Literal looks of disgust” probably when you’re at the local Nazi bar and say her name. NYC will overwhelmingly vote blue so you’re just being delusional. 🌻🌻🌻
Ok here me out, Black folks tell me she needs to sit the fuck down and slow her roll, Indians tell me they will not vote for a women, Asians say they can’t support a no bail prosecutor, Muslims call her Israeli and say she must be from Ethiopia, the ”white dudes” I see on TV all day are like her or Trump is that a joke? Again I do not see support that isn't Trump Hate. You know, what do you like about Harris so maybe I could learn something today?
You seem to know a lot of people from various backgrounds. Im sure they are all representative samples of their individual cohorts.
Trump hate is it's own platform, and he made it that way.
I am from NYC 33% of population is foreign born, another 33% is out of staters, so when you are here you bump into everyone. But I guess the issue is I also want Trump to lose, but Harris is not gonna do it and all this blue no matter who is incredibly off-putting to moderates, the fact that other posters think winning NYC is a slam dunk and people on the street hate her I think it shows how out of touch the top brass is.
lol what?
The blue no matter who crowd are moderates. They just want Trump to lose so they can go back to brunch.
Hey is your again. Trying for gold in the “worst takes” Olympics? Trump flags are everywhere because these racist idiots left them up since 2016.
Lol they say 2024 everyone thinks hes stupid and consider Harris worse, that should be quite alarming. By the way where have we met before?
they consider harris worse, but give me literally ANY fucking reason why harris is worse, ONE FUCKING REASON.
There are none.
Not that guy, but I don't know if Biden has said anything as bloodthirsty as Harris's statement in response to those hostages Israel bombed.
He very well could have, I just don't know of anything specific.
Double downed and ignored my query entirely, but you are smart because? You really can not even read but are living in America? Are a you are troll or Biden migrant because literally kys seriously, like you are no benefit to any country
ah yes the classic kill yourself comment in response to a pretty genuine and direct inquiry.
I'm still waiting, give me any reason as to why harris is worse than trump.
I laid out various arguments, and had numerous discussions but thats what you heard? Like call me if you serious but this is such troll I am about to dox you,
ok, to entertain your amusement, i had a quick scroll through your account and it was nothing but you lambasting people for no reason while also simultaneously saying nothing.
you had ZERO arguments anywhere in there, the only "semi" argument i could find was you saying "nobody wants this" which is not proof.
My brother in christ you a russian disinfo drone, please stop talking lmao.
also yes, please dox me before you get banned, it will be funny.
When anyone begins a sentence/rant w “Listen” they’ve already failed in having anyone take them seriously 🙂↔️
Yeah screw Navi.
Username checks out
this is because republicans live in a false reality, they are delusional.
“I live in NYC and only see more Trump Flags”
ROFL…
I bet you see them hanging from windows of NYC walk ups and on the backs of lifted taxi cabs rolling cole
