How dare people disagree! What idiots, right?

It says so much that this is the way you talk about your perceived political rivals.

I'm really tired of being called an idiot and a Republican for disagreeing with the Biden administration, and I'm really tired of voting for people who call me an idiot if I don't support them.

That really seems to be the best Democrats have to offer, though. Each time it happens, I think a little more about voting for the GOP out of spite.

So what you're trying to tell us, is that we literally have no choice who to vote for.

A lot of people would rather see this increasingly undemocratic system collapse entirely than to try to hold it together with bandaids with no one stopping the cause of the bleeding.

If there's literally zero way through voting to influence the behavior of politicians without making things worse, then why bother voting or participating in this psychopathic system at all?

And if your response is something like "you're an idiot, shut up you idiot!", then you're just sticking your fingers in your ears and going la-la-la-la-la.

Your job isn't to demonstrate your virtue through tribal arguments, your job is to understand why people don't want to vote for Biden.

You just need to stop lecturing and scolding for like, a few dang minutes.

Funny enough, there's research demonstrates that people vote against the voters of a party, and it turns out that people don't like being called idiots for disagreeing politically with someone, and that they'll go so far as to vote against the party of voters calling them idiots.

Maybe just something to think about.

Because it's not a communication problem any more than the GOP had a messaging problem some years ago.

You can't communicate your way out of shit governance. Democrats just keep getting further and further out of touch with working class Americans.

You mean there is a flaw to the strategy of repeating, "listen, Jack, the economy has never been better, and you're an idiot if you don't see that"?

But according to the article, there's no evidence that this means anything is wrong with the economy...
