So this was actually analyzed not long ago. In fact its completely untrue. The apathetic voters (people who just sont vote) by a huge margin report that they would be more likely to vote for trump. So the issue here is actually that the more people that come out to vote the further behind democrats will be. And at this stage unless they remove Joe biden, Donald trump will be the next president this isnt a contest anymore and the sooner the democratic party realizes that party loyalty is what's going to destroy them the better.

Welcome to Progressive Politics! A place for news updates and political discussion from a left perspective. Conservatives and centrists are welcome just try and keep it civil :)
(Sidebar still a work in progress post recommendations if you have them such as reading lists)
Actually, given the movement of white college-educated voters to the Democrats and the increasing slippage of blue-collar whites, Latinos, and Black men, lower turnout is better for Democrats now.
Don’t really matter when only one side picks the popular one that moves their masses.
What turnout is required for the Democrats to not exist anymore?
Asking for a friend.
Edit: Nevermind. We might all find out soon enough.
Is advocating for the Democratic Party allowed on this comm?
Should be allowed anywhere people acknowledge reality lol. The number of people on Lemmy who think that they’re gonna magically change the world by complaining loudly on a tiny Internet forum and labeling literally everyone that disagrees with them for any reason a genocide supporter is utterly astounding…and more than a little ironic given how many of them are out here fangirling over Mao and Stalin.
Like, holy fuck dude. The far left echo chamber here is so far off in la-la-land it makes the people I see ranting in my Facebook feed seem well-informed by comparison. You guys literally have no idea how anything gets done in the real world lol.
Keep it up with this “all or nothing” mentality, and you’re gonna get nothing every single time.
