loquacius posted:We don't need to win over Trump voters, guys, his turnout was really bad and the people who voted for him are largely the same people who vote R every time. We need to win over the ones who stayed home. Yes, this. Trying to win over Trump voters is Clinton / Schumer centrist neoliberal idiocy. You need to motivate the people who voted 3rd party or didn't vote. You need to excite all the young people that were grossed out by the Clinton/Trump choice.

You can get them tho with a strong personality candidate That post was an argument against your post, why are you agreeing with it, stop that We shouldn't just run our same old politics while aping Trump's campaign by running The Rock or whatever people are saying now, we'd look like a bunch of johnny-come-latelys. We just have to do a better job at speaking to Middle America to make them

It's hilarious to see Dems trying and failing to adopt post-truth rhetoric. It's like watching a PUA trying to blend-in at the Player's Ball.

euphronius posted:Crowds of fat white people chanting "lock her up" are fundamentally motivated by economic issues which socialism can address I know you're being funny, but yes. These same people feel like there's two sets of rules, those for elites and those for everyone else. Locking up an untouchable elite is a sign that corruption won't be tolerated and that everyone will be applicable. You can interpret this however you want, but that doesn't change the fact I've heard this reasoning from dozens of people, including ones who wanted a higher minimum wage and to stop foreign wars and police actions.

Thinking things like certain foods are "unhealthy" instead of first thinking about portion sizes is the heart of the issue. Smaller portions of the same food are cheaper. Agean90 posted:Also costly, gym memberships are a reoccurring fee many people can't handle, equipment requires a lump sum that can't exist, and trying to jog poor rural areas occasional ends in getting chased by wild dogs (personal experience on the last one) Exercise doesn't matter when it comes to not being fat.

Obesity is a natural consequence of capitalism's relentless drive to achieve maximum efficiency and profit while not caring about the health of the exploited class. The fact that it is still framed as a moral failing is icing on the cake and serves to keep a significant portion of the population feeling demoralized and devalued.
