(13,340 posts)The one's we CAN reach are already voting with us. The rest want the restoration of an America that is long gone. One where those uppity brown people know their place, and those fags have the shame to hide their sinful behavior (this is sarcasm, of there is any doubt).
In short, they are diametrically opposed to the progress of many of the oppressed groups that Democrats champion.
Nope, fuck 'em. The good guys are already with us.
What we need to do is get our natural supporters to give a shit and come out.
Many of them are lulled into a stupor of celebrity gossip and other pop culture bullshit.
Many more are simply struggling to live... working long hours and they are simply disengaged from the process.
And WAY too many people are lulled into the bullshit narrative that all politicians are bad and it doesn't matter who gets elected. Guess who that narrative serves?
We need to find some way to actually get these people to care about what is going on in politics.
And no, I'm not talking about getting people "inspired" or "excited." I will settle for informed and determined.
