It’s less about favoring Republicans and more about the fact that the U.S. does not have ranked choice voting, or more than two viable parties, so it becomes an all or nothing team sport

How is 37% half?

Last time Republicans won the popular vote was because of 9/11, so 2004, but they always lost otherwise since 1988. The racism and sexism are open wounds from the civil rights movement in the 60s and the women libs movement in the 70s. Most of the red voting states are super low population, so there’s no love for republicans other than their gerrymandering and electoral college fixing.

I am pretty sure Trump is winning it in 2024 because of the way some of the swing states are removing access to voting. It’s such a fucking fraud

Trumps pov is easy to understand, and so he’s easy to buy. You only need to stroke Trumps ego and speak his language and he’s on your side. That’s why Republican politicians think they can control him, except he’s too neurotic and unstable, likely because of narcissism made worse by dementia.

No one really votes for Republicans, that’s why they have to gerrymander and keep the electoral college alive. There’s like maybe 35%-37% of the American pop. which really supports their pov. The swing states are only ever an issue because of voter disenfranchisement, not because people actually swing. Very few people actually swing vote.

It’s like they’re using an abusive spouse handbook to make policies lmao

He should be sitting further back, that’s just bad for your neck and can give you eye strain

Removing comment because I feel like I am just contributing to misinformation and I don’t want to unleash baseless speculation about a community based on a silly thought I came up with as a joke, and not a serious point.

Edit to add clarification

Why not?

Is this post sane-washing Russia? What’s left about Russia under Putin? Overall funny, though

Republicans have become terrorists, what a disgrace

Their platform made me roll my eyes a bit, the only fiscal conservative that makes sense is when you tax billionaires out of existence. Fiscal conservatism that taxes the poor and doesn’t give them benefits is more neocon bullshit

Totally

yfw a cashless society doesn’t have dollar bills to confirm

All platforms are going for mass audience appeal, it’s such bullshit

This should be amended to say that “Republicans support Project 2025, look it up”

I think Floridas a terrible play, the only state they shouldn’t sleep on is AZ as it shows in so many winning electoral combos for the Reps

How do you convince regular folk who’re just trying to get by and make sense of the world? They don’t even know what they stand to lose by voting in unsafe people like most Republicans

React to them like how’d you react to a face eating leopard

Those too, I agree. But there’s something unique about being able to voice out your inner fears, insecurities and anxieties with a companion and have them listen. They don’t even need to solution anything with you, necessarily. A lot of people, not just men, are lacking that when they’re lonely.

I hate that someone like OpenAI or Musk or Amazon are going to capitalize on this space in the worst possible ways. We need more empathy driven technology development, kinda like an actionable Hippocratic Oath for software dev
