Posts like this give me second hand embarrassment. You are still walking on all fours mentality-wise. America is not a country that wants progressive ((((socialist))) economic policies. America is a country that worships individualism (aka selfishness) and the rich. Look how hard Obama had to fight for something as lovely as the ACA. Look how the GOP is already doing every single thing possible to dismantle it. Look at how many millions who benefitted from ACA had a deep and irrational hatred of it simply because it was created by a democrat/a black man.

Americans are fueled by hate, selfishness and little else. Leftism in America is a lost cause.

Give up.

There's tons of polling that shows that Americans prefer liberal and/or leftist policies, especially when discussing them using terms that the GOP messaging machine does not. (See also: how the "Affordable Care Act" has substantially higher approval than "Obamacare.")

Here's a dated but still good roundup of some.

The article posted:

According to these policy polls, an “average American” supports the redistribution of wealth through taxing the wealthy more, wants to increase the minimum wage and environmental protections, thinks that unions are beneficial to society, and opposes attempts to cut anti-poverty programs or entitlements, even if those cuts are intended to balance the budget. On social issues, this theoretical American supports gay equality, reasonable abortion access, universal background checks for gun purchases, wage-equality for women and the legalization of marijuana.

Dems (the ones that actually care about winning elections, anyway) and leftists have an uphill battle against the voter apathy and electoral biases that keep the GOP in power, but the idea that Americans in general are unreachable FYGM racsexists is wrong.

Edit: Oh god I'm the only person sincereposting on this page. Sorry, sorry I'm trying to remove it.

Imagine if ol' abuelita had given a speech about climate change instead of a speech about how awesome and important the finance industry is to a bunch of finance guys.

Then maybe she wouldn't have lost and wouldn't have gotten dunked on by Kellyanne. :sad:
