Of all the explanations I have seen, this makes the most sense imo

Social media/new media (word to draymond green) has replaced mainstream/traditional media and it is completely dominated by right wingers

And before anyone says baby boomers and gen x are not on social media like that, they are all on Facebook and guess which ideology a d influences dominate that platform as well. It's not a coincidence that a lot of millennial and gen z are maga

It's also why majority of American voters are unaware of the good economic performance of the Biden Harris administration and believe the economy is terrible because they are getting their news from Charlie kirk and ben shapiro





Ps how does one properly embed tweets on this site can someone embed this shyt for me

It's just racism. Nothing more, nothing less.

It's not based on who's better. She offered the world in comparison to what he brought to the table.
She was the only Presidential candidate in history with experience in all three branches while the guy was a horrible president and had far shyttier policies. Many times she went above and beyond while he half-assed it, got destroyed in debates, picked JD Vance as the Vice President, etc.
She was x100 better the candidate to get 1/10 the credit. This was a mismatch on paper.

I've lost so much interest in talking about and paying attention to politics now. shyt is ass. I'm honestly done voting.
It's a waste. Spending all that time and energy arguing about it, proving your points, etc. to see that these are the results at the end of it.

They're going to tell me all these excuses about why I should "Trust the system and blah, blah, blah" simply to talk at me or guilt trip.
National:


White folks mainly. That's how outnumbered everyone else is here. Do the math. They're 73% of the voter count. They basically only needed the majority in one group of people to win. The votes from other groups helped them of course, but when white folks move in a direction due to their numbers here it just matters too much.

Everyone else total: 27%
Half of the White vote 36%

So even if 100% of all minorities voted one way, it's still basically up to how the white majority votes.

For Trump:
White Men 57%
White Women 51%

That means everyone else's vote was an uphill battle this election. With the electoral college, that makes it amplified.

So if you want someone to blame for this country to go to shyt, there's no hiding who to blame anymore. They're running it. Don't let them blame anyone else. They've won every election they've had the majority in. They're driving the bus, they can't blame the wreck on the passengers looking out the window while they're in one of those bulletproof seats.

I'm simply focused on doing my thing now.
This goes to show all that other shyt doesn't matter when it comes to politics.

Skin color > merit.

Man them white folks weren't voting for a woman neither. Let's set this straight and add it in.
That's part of it, but white women voted highly in favor of Trump this time as well.

Hilary got more votes with them and this is while they knew what Republicans did last time to their rights.

This was primarily race-related imo, we're not over that as a country/species.

Our traditional media outlets haven’t been independent either for a long time and owned by billionaires with interest
Republicans and right wingers/conservatives have gutted America by playing the long game with controlling every aspect of our information and access.

Plus keep it a buck these white hoes ain’t going nowhere.

It was the combination that did it in. Black/Indian and a woman?!
Dems are totally tone deaf about the nature of conservatives in this country.

Yes racism plays a part but it doesn't explain why Obama has outperformed Harris and why voters were unaware of the facts on key issues

They are bombarded with right wing content and disinformation everywhere they look online

  • Israel
  • immigration
  • macroeconomics (over kitchen table economics)
  • ‘the “girl power” campaign
  • add to that selling out your credibility supporting trans people. You sound like an idiot arguing for it
It's immigrations and trannies, most people are too dumb to understand Israel one way or another.
