You’re right, it is insensitive. These women are suffering because the majority of voters suck. They may have voted a certain way, and then they might deserve it. But even then my guess is a big chunk of trump voters have no idea what the actual effect of his plans are, and are victims of propaganda.

Sure people are suffering elsewhere, but it’s always sad to see a country regress in freedom and health.

And any question in a headline can be answered with no. Otherwise it would be a statement.

Yeah, if anyone is bothered by which hand I hold my fork in, I’d say they should see a therapist and work it out on their end.

Nobody would or could see the evidence as that would be very weird, immoral and also illegal. Very easy for the people denying it to just call it fake news or AI or whatever. It would require trust in the justice system which is pretty much non existent for MAGA followers, and more recently also eroded in the saner part of the population (albeit for better reasons).

Could it be developed as an add on to the main slicer software, and developed on the down low, with a big disclaimer saying it’s “just for educational purposes”.

I remember listening to Frank Zappa’s Bobby Brown when I was a kid, not knowing English at all. Great song but very inappropriate for kids, which my parents probably thought was funny.

If someone makes threats you have to assume they’re serious and not just wave it away as “unclear”.

I think what he is getting at is that democrats could be more “aggressive” in how to appeals to the working class people. These subtle policies that have marginal benefit don’t have enough perceived impact.

Democrats could promise something simple and with clear benefits to common folks, something that can be easily understood. People want change. I think Bernie was almost getting there when he was running.

MAGA fans have jumped on the bandwagon of “sticking it to the man”, and “draining the swamp”. Which is kind of what Bernie wants to do but sincerely, with a track record to prove it.

Edit: added “perceived “

That’s a pretty dishonest description of Bernie. I don’t dare to say if your statement about unions is true, and it might as well be, but what Bernie is saying here is that it’s not enough. He’s arguing the democrats need to be more progressive. Feel free to disagree with his suggestion though.

I do think that the bigger problem is that the average person lacks the general understanding of how policies affect their lives. They want simple answers and Trump is giving them that. People are shortsighted and have a hard time grasping the bigger picture, and rather vote based on a gut feeling.

It would be a little better if everyone could vote, regardless of felony stays.
