It’s Joever for the Democrats no lie. I know polls are still pretty even and something could happen to give them a shot in the arm but honestly all the videos I’ve been watching and conversations I’ve been having IRL are just pointing to a complete anti-Democrat vibe. Watching a few videos that are saying the same thing and it could just be algorithm bias but idk. I don’t even mean just for 2024 election like long term this party is fucked. I used to think they were going to be bent over and moved out of the way by the Republicans (consequently establishing a further fascist government) because Dems are spineless but they’re actually doing such a terrible job that they’re going to get voted out and allow the Republicans to further fascist-ize the US if that’s even possible.

I’m low-key here for it, going to be interesting but I’m very scared for marginalized people and the proleys in general.

    are now shit-talking Biden. And every point they bring up is pretty valid.

    What are their points? I mean I could write up a huge list myself, I’m just curious which things are pushing the apolitical people you know against him. Like is it mostly the assisted genocide, or more about their own falling living standards?

            Where are you??? The only places I can think it would be that high would be California in major cities or maybe New York City.

            Or Hawaii but that’s obvious why.

            Gas is 2.50-3.70 in the rest of the country.

              Very rural northern California. I haven’t been off the mountains so to speak in several months so I don’t really know what prices are like in the rest of the country, but I believe you. Gas is always more expensive here I think

                Makes sense, you’re pretty far from major transport hubs and ports, so a high cost to account for transport is understandable.

                My experience in the US is mainly in the Northeast, and even in Pennsylvania with its massive 30 cent gas tax, the prices are still 3.45-3.65

      Well, it’s the United States of course, Genocide is our foundation of our state, so apoliticals CAN’T really judge him on that lest they judge the founding fathers, which they likely won’t do because of years of indoctrination. Their issues are with his extreme old age and extraordinarily frequent gaffs, his claiming to be Pro-Union but being a Right-winger. I can’t speak for anti-Israel sentiments because most people I know don’t want to talk about it.
