Oh shit I meant to take out the part about black men, thanks.
The dems lack policy, but the specifically white and latino men who stayed home didn't do it because of policies. The dems had no change in policy and they had no issues voting for it the first time. I get it that toxic masculinity makes a lot of men in the US into snowflakes when trying to talk about our bigot problems, but downvotes don't change observable reality.
I don't care what senators were elected, that has nothing to do with the presidential canidate being a woman. And it has nothing to do with who old white people want as president.
When the "market rate" for the vast majority of jobs pays lower than what people need to live as more than slaves then effectively they are enslaved on a systemic level.
Living conditions that enable people to have actual freedom. Like having agency in their society, having affordable human needs, and having financial freedom be obtainable in time for old age.
She gained gained women in every group besides white women where she lost a small margin.
But the biggest thing was she lost a shit ton of white voters, not to the Republicans tho, basically the old wealthy white people who would vote for an old white man dem but not a woman dem stayed home.
Both the dems and Republicans had fewer votes in 2024 compared to 2020, but there were a lot more dem voters from 2020 that stayed home this time.
The part I don't understand is why everyone always downvotes me for pointing out the obvious.
Older white men/women and latino men are too racist/sexist to bring themselves to vote for a colored woman. Shouldn't be that hard to understand considering how bigoted our country is.
I understand that, I've tried CBT and it's impossible for it to help me because it fundamentally depends on accepting you are helpless and doesn't properly get people in the mindset required to change their lives and society for the better.
If I actually want to give a shit about myself then that's not something I can DELUDE myself into accepting.
The delusion I'd rather hold onto is that my life will get better, becauase in that delusion there's at least a happy ending. I have a hard time believing that though.
Anyone who's seen what happens when mods legitimize trolls knows it kills communities. I wish i could have stayed on blahaj but it's just as toxic as reddit lgbtq spaces now...
Why are right wingers the only ones who ever try to devalue the meaning of words?
If they don't like being called tankies or nazis they are free to chage their beleifs, same as you if you feel like you are being grouped in for your beliefs.
I've tried really hard to get a job that requires as little from me as possible and still pays the bills.
Life is misery, every week I start knowing I will not be allowed enough freedom to ever stop being a wage slave.
I work to stay alive, and have no chance to plan for the future.
I have nothing to live for besides the people I care about, and my work makes it so I have to spend almost all my time away from them or too tired to interact.
Our world is dying and I can't even be upset about it anymore, becuse whatever happens will be more fulfilling than this
It takes some serious mental gymnastics to acknowledge you have feelings, and thinking it's ok to suppress those natural feelings because you can't really hope to improve anything ever.
It's probably healthier than consciously working your way through a life of wage slavery.
If I could just delete every Monday-Friday out of my life and toss out 5/7ths of my life I think I would prefer to live for 2/7ths of my lifespan and not be a slave
