FYI you don't get dumb and bad people to vote for you by appealing to their deplorable sensibilities, you do it by offering a sensible material policy that will improve their lives in easily understandable ways.

Without looking at Hillary's website, explain how her policy proposals would help an unemployed oil worker who was laid off in Texas by the Saudi oil glut.

As a rural white...

They have agency in their decisions. They're not victims here. Whether anyone likes to admit it or not, they're grown men and women responsible for what they do. If they couldn't think hard enough to realize why voting Trump was a bad idea, they deserve every ounce of scorn they get and then some.

gently caress them.

Seriously.

I grew up in a lovely rural town and those people don't WANT to be informed. They WANT to believe comfortable lies over unpleasant truths. They don't WANT to educate themselves. They don't WANT help from liberals or conservatives or anyone. As someone else in the thread said, there are rural cancer survivors that only survived because of insurance and/or federal help but still hate our health care system because they're ashamed that they needed help and that they're not really the Randian ubermensch they want to be. They're also literal undeveloped children who are happy to vote for less for themselves as long as other people have even less.

The worst part? They're PROUD of all this. They're PROUD to remain willfully ignorant. They whine and cry about how nobody listens to them and yet they never listen to anyone else. Intelligent people have been telling them to stop voting against their own interests for LITERALLY GENERATIONS and they just stick their fingers in their ears and bury their heads in the sand and scream "LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"

And I know this because I was raised to be that way too. And hey check it out I educated myself and grew the gently caress up like a mature, well-adjusted adult and these stubbornly racists bumfucks can get hosed. Every single one of them. They don't want to change. They don't want help. They just want all the women and minorities under their heels again because they honestly (and stupidly) believe that America will be Great Again.

Being nice to them will never change their minds. Trying to appeal to their economic needs will never change their minds. They just want the country to be white again.

gently caress. Them.

I know the natural thing is to find some justifying story here, the Dems hosed it up, Clinton just didnt' try hard enough.

That was the Repubs said in 2012.

Our country is demanding darker and more dangerous times. Our sense of how it worked has been shown to have only a random association with reality.

The only thing that sees a future is the ability of important bad decisions to accumulate.

Well this is all hosed but I'm getting a pretty hearty chuckle from the people going "Maybe minorities should be nicer to the people who are oppressing them".

If you notice, the most vocal (as well as the most powerful) people in the dem party who engage in the "lol rural poors are dumb" rhetoric are middle-class cisgendered hetero white men. They need to stop being smug to rural poors. PoC and queers and such can go ahead and be lovely to them because they are actually facing oppression.

No respect for incrementalism. It failed. It took decades to dismantle the New Deal, and only one election to wipe out the Obama policies.
