Oh, are we looking for people who voted for Bernie in the primary and then did not vote for Hillary in the general?


*raises hand*

Two facts:

1) I voted for Bernie

2) I voted in my first democratic primary this year

HEY I WONDER HOW IT GOT TO 25% FROM 0
It went from being an issue of one tenth of one percent to being an issue of the 25% in a matter of months. That's like a 24,900% improvement in such a short period!

Stuff like this is what proves that these center-left/centrist types don't actually care about these issues as much as they claim to. If you frame the same issue using a morally obvious political topic (like slavery or civil rights), the analogy to their words/actions is super obviously that of someone who doesn't actually care about the topic in question. If someone constantly made the same sort of contrarian arguments against abolitionists, it would be obvious that they either don't care about slavery, or are against ending it.

You see this the most when it comes to topics like wealth inequality/poverty; if you create an analogy using their same argument with respect to something like racism, it sounds exactly the same as the stuff racists say (or at least someone who doesn't care about racism). When they talk about racist white socialist bros, it's entirely projection; they're imagining that the left views social justice in the same way they view issues like material inequality/poverty.
:yeah:

Given only 40% of america tends to vote during midterms, 25% of people supporting abolishing ice is actually pretty drat good?

40% of all of eligible voters or just 40% of presidential race voter counts?
Since AFIAK 48% of all eligible voters vote in presidential race so -8% isn't much of a difference.


Also that 25% who want to abolish it don't/can't vote so the dems will never target them on purpose

Also Russia having access to the ADA models does nothing for the fact that Clinton hit cruise control on her campaign robot, told her husband to shut his presidency winning mouth, and hosed off for like 6 months only to lose.

Russia didn't hack Clinton, unless that's why she kept collapsing or something

fwiw it's not entirely unreasonable to think that there's something there to the 'russians got clinton models' line. if you recall the election, a lot of people were very surprised by trump going and having rallies in shithole parts of states that were considered clinton locks.

so either trump's campaign team was a bunch of incredibly savvy political operators who realized she was weak in those areas
or they knew that there was a good reason to go to those areas because someone told them where she was weak

:thunk:
I think its less of a contrast between Clinton's campaign and Trump campaign being significant, and more of Trump actually campaigned in the first place.

We didn't have ADA's model and we were exploding our heads over how Clinton could be so loving poo poo.

poo poo sounds like she was forced by her teachers (DNC) to write an essay (tweets) about a positive thing about their classmate (opponent) as a lesson in :decorum:

TBH though Obama probably wasn't 100% racist, but he just didn't care enough. Not much of a distinction since the outcome would've been the same either way
