It’s an election though, for the person to run your country. You have to put some research into the candidates, not just copy what sign someone else put out in their lawn. This unfortunately wasnt an election where you can just look at policies (one party just had ideas of a policy, and thats a major red flag), there’s a bigger picture of who you are putting in power.
I agree with your points, they all make sense, but even if the democrats had a more aggressive anti-trump campaign, thet still wouldnt have seen it (maybe a tiny bit more likely to tho) or they would have already been indoctrinated into the cult and just ignore it.
Education systems should be teaching simple things like this to kids, everyone should know the importance of an election.
Another issue is people collectively thinking their 1 vote doesnt matter.
I hope you guys can take back your country in 2028.
Unfortunately, the reality is that people do not have to put thought into anything before they vote. We would want that to be true, and ideally they would, but that’s just not reality.
A more aggressive anti-trump campaign isn’t at all what was needed and honestly wouldn’t have made a difference. Substantive policy designed to make a immediate tangible improvement in the lives of working people is what has been needed. Regardless an accelerated 3 month timeline probably wasn’t enough time to make a difference message wise, given how siloed and disjointed our media landscape is in the United States.
Like it or not, the Neoliberalism embraced by the Democratic parties leadership is just as cult like in it’s thinking as Maga-Christianity.
The education system in the United States has been intentionally been attacked and made unaffordable for this very reason. Reagan wrote about the dangers of an educated proletariat. He followed through on a policy level.
At a federal level, studies have shown that the wants of voters have close to zero impact on policy implementation. Unless you have money for lobbyist, your vote largely doesn’t matter. Money trumps your vote. Change in the US won’t come at the ballot box, it is going to require good minded people to organize an flex our economic muscle. The US economy runs on consumption, and that’s where our leverage is. We need to organize a general consumption strike. Starve them of the money they use against us.
It will be painful, but that ship has sailed. The future is going to hurt regardless.
