Here’s the thing ...

If this country wasn’t so divided you wouldn’t have situations with so many states just flat split right down the middle

Both sides would be well served steeping themselves in reality and coming up with a platform that appeals to more than 50.01%

Calling your political opponents Russian puppets, racists, idiots, deplorables, Nazis, etc. etc., and having it all amplified to the masses by a willing and complicit media tends to turn people away from you permanently.

If Biden cures cancer as he said he’ll do if elected, I’ll forgive them. If not, welcome to 4 years of an even more fractured country, especially as the middle-class and lower-class struggle mightily as taxes are raised and energy cost “skyrocket.”

I do hope the Woke White Women in the suburbs who thought Trump is a big meanie suffer greatly as their taxes go up and jobs start to go away again.

Trump was the definition of a polarized mixed bag ... he has himself and only himself to blame for losing

Biden ain't bringing shit together ... he's clueless and won't finish his term

As crazy as it sounds I feel like the GOP is closer to figuring the right balance out than the Democrats ... but the GOP ain't all that close. The Dems pretty much have no clue.

Tuesday and into Wednesday, there was some twatter self reflection about what Dems are missing about the Trump electorate.

Today, AOC and former Buttegirger aides are creating social blacklists.

The market will rise up - Parler wasn't even a thing until the last month. Elon Musk launching his satellite internet service will provide an alternate ISP controlled by an obvious anti-government guy.

The more big tech censors, the more the common people will seek alternatives. AOC can go finger herself with her blacklists.

I think I agree, though more states being evenly split would be an indication of both parties offering something for everyone. As it stands, only the handful of swing states actually fit that bill. More counties, rural and urban, being split would be an even bigger indicator.

But that's just not in the cards. Generally speaking, urban liberals don't have the faintest clue about what life for a working rural voter looks like. And vice versa. It used to be a little better when we all tuned into the same 6 pm broadcast on one of only three channels and read the same Sunday paper as everyone else. At least then we generally agreed on the same baseline of facts.

Now everyone is siloed off into their corners of the internet with social media algorithms further force feeding us exactly what we want to read in order to reinforce whichever worldview we have. And the parties will only continue to react and conform accordingly.

The big difference is that urban liberals want to force rural conservatives to live with their values while rural conservatives just want to be left alone

Basically the perfect response. These maga fools are so fucking clueless. Have an independent thought apart from FOX/Jones/ 4chan/ Limbaugh/etc. It’s like debating with a parrot that knows 5 responses.

The irony just writes itself.

Are the rural conservatives the farmers that take $$$$ in subsidies?

Good question to ask yourself as you stroll the isles of Safeway as you marvel at all the selection featured on the full store shelves
