45% of Gen Z men still voted Harris, there's tonnes of you that aren't alt-right.

Instead of dropping dead, it's time you guys started reclaiming what it means to be a "man". It's not like shitty women don't exist, but most women band together in times of need/stress. Men need to start doing that too.

Surely comments like this will help alienated Gen Z males back into the fold.

Surely.

My friend, do not speak this into existence ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I'm not American

I...then why are you telling Americans that we're wrong for thinking the DNC ran a shit campaign?? Like, you're right, we're in for a FUCKED time starting January 2025, but did you really expect people to turn out on election night out of an existential threat? Does that happen where you live?

Harris didn't lose because everyone voted for Trump, Harris lost because the Dem's voter base felt so unheard by their own candidate regarding their issues that they stayed home, exactly as Bernie Sanders said. The numbers and voter stats are all there for people to read. Harris AND Trump got overall less votes than 2020, but Harris lost the Blue Wall from 2020. Hillary at least won the popular vote, Harris and the 2024 DNC don't even have that.

It doesn't matter where you are in the world, voter turnout correlates to progressives getting in power. The conservatives always have a core base of ~20-30% of voters that will always show up (no really, look up historical voter numbers in your own country), and the DNC have really tried appealing to these people in the US instead of bringing out their own base!

It's a flawed strategy because it's shown over and over again that these core voters will always vote through their conservative party lines.

Joe Biden should see if squatters rights extend to the White House.

Thank you! I'm very lucky in that I was claiming what was already a birth right through my parents, so my citizenship was really not as tough as people actually immigrating and going through the whole intrusive process.

I still don't consider the US my "home" per se, not like my birth country, but I've met some wonderful people, and my state is pretty blue, so I have no doubt my governor will be fighting the orange clown tooth and nail for four years. That being said, man the political atmosphere here can be...well, let's just say I'm getting used to the "American exceptionalism" aspects of the culture.

I agree with you (hence why I finally got my dual citizenship and voted) but a lot of people can't see beyond their own needs. An existential reason was never going to be enough to galvanize them.

You're in the headline, btw.

It's insane to me how Democrats keep appealing to the right, when their historically greatest turnout has been galvanizing their base like with Obama.

And yes, a war criminal's endorsement is more important to me than a pop star's. One of them actually works in policy.

Bro BFFR Dems had Dick and Liz Cheney endorsing her, exactly what part of their base is a war criminal and his nepo baby supposed to appeal to?

Edit to add: this is who they sent to stump for Harris in Michigan and other swing states btw

We literally have the numbers, it's called "counting the ballots". What in the post-fact world?

This has to be a troll.

Ok bro, and what about the DEMOCRATS that didn't vote this time around??

How did Harris lose 10-15 million votes + Trump lost 2 million votes from 2020 if EVERY INDEPENDENT from 2020 voted Trump?

No, blue voters didn't vote for Republicans. This is the second thread I see you posting this misinformation when it's not remotely true outside of ONE demographic (Latino men). Left of centre democrats just didn't show up to the polls (and they had no reason to, tbh).

You can look up the turnout numbers yourself, it's literally headline news.

Edit: nvm, you seem to have it out for Bernie and think Biden/Harris was a fine ticket even when Dems were asking Biden to step down. I see your game.
