We take for granted that young people will ALWAYS be left, but if the young male vote ends up even close to what some polling is saying, it will be years of electoral disaster for Democrats. These voters are reachable
I've been trying to say this for years. People don't get more left-wing with age, they get more right-wing and conservative.
A few years ago, political and ideological affiliation were being studied, and something huge showed up in the data. Normally, each generation is significantly more left-wing than the previous, and only because as leftist as the previous generation at it's peak. I made up the numbers because I've forgotten them at this point, but it's something like this:
- 10% of the Silent Generation was Leftist at 18, 0% Leftist at 75
- 20% of the Greatest Generation was Leftist at 18, 10% at 75
- 30% of the Baby Boomers were Leftist at 18, 20% at 75
- 40% of Gen X were Leftist at 18, will likely be 30% at 75
- 50% of Millennials were Leftist at 18
But then a major shift occurred and it looked like:
- 45% of Gen Z were leftist at 18
People mistakenly thought Gen Z and Gen Alpha are conservative. They're not, they are just the first generation to clearly reverse this trend of leftist youths in almost 100 years.
And no, those voters are actually unreachable for the Left. As you've seen from former communist states, Reagan voters, and Thatcher voters, they don't actually ever go back because the magic wore off. The Left is actually playing hard defense. Even in our current polling, the Democrats basically lost the majority of the white vote in the 70's, and it never came back. It still hasn't. The only hold outs are the people who are legacy voters. People who vote Democrat because they've always voted Democrat and so did their parents.
Trump winning over young people, without even privatizing the public school system, is probably the greatest electoral accomplishment of our lifetime, because it's setting the stage for an anti-Leftist century going forwards.
the other is not ceding all cultural masculinity to the GOP. Sports aren't inherently conservative.
Because your party's intelligentsia already declared masculinity to be fascist.
Yeah, me neither.
Fuckin half-way through the night and Reagan is up by twenty million votes. Listening to the some of the announcers, the delusion of the Democrats is real. "Mondale was expecting to flip Reagan's home state." "Democrats were hoping to hold onto Massachusetts." Fuggin oof.
Wanna see one of the saddest things?
Mr. Mondale, many analysts are now saying that, actually, our number one foreign policy problem today is one that remains wholly unrecognized. Massive illegal immigration from economically collapsing countries. They are saying that it is the only real territorial threat to the American Nation-State. You yourself said in the 1970's that we had a, quote, "hemorrhage on our borders", unquote. Yet today you have backed off any immigration reform such as the Simpson-Mizzoli Bill. Why?
I can't even imagine the media even trying to ask this question, let alone trying to frame the concept of "American Nation-State" as anything but Nazi ideology. Our nation has had an open border since before 1984, now we're just trying to pull in every available warm body (child rapist or not), in order to keep the pension ponzi scheme.
The idea is that Schumer is ambitious as fuck and wants to be president. However, his own party probably won't let him because he's to "pale, male, and stale"; so if he really wanted to be president, he could trans himself and run as a woman.
At a certain point, that's just self-delusion. You have to deal with things as they are. Not how they present themselves to be.
I agree that it would be crazy to trust the system as it is to fix itself with the people who are currently in it. It would be like releasing Hunter Biden's laptop to CNN, because journalists speak truth to power. Obviously that's retarded, because CNN is not operating the way their propaganda says they should. This begs the question, why the hell would we expect them to abide by propaganda standards. The standards you are calling "the system", aren't the system's standards, it's no one's standards. It's not even their standards because it's literally just a sales pitch they don't intend to abide by in the first place.
Is it the system's hypocrisy when we ask it to fulfil enemy propaganda? No. The system is the system, regardless of propaganda. It is simply a machine. If you understand the machine, then you use the machine. That's what they're doing, frankly they are the ones operating well outside of the system. They are the ones explicitly breaking the law, procedure, and prudence because their revolution isn't going fast enough to their liking.
We don't even need a revolution, we really just need a revolt from their control over the system, and then for us to simply work the system as intended.
So if you don't have the overwhelming support of the people nor control the regulatory bodies, good luck with getting anything done.
That's what Bukele did! He didn't have a 90% approval when he went to war against MS-13, but when he did he used every weapon at his disposal within the state's power. That's how he got to 90%. He earned people's trust, and they gave him further political capital to keep fighting on other fronts. Those bureaucrats really were working with the Cartels... which made them part of the enemy racket, which made them all legitimate targets.
Neither Millei nor Bukele have ever had complete control over the system. What they had instead was momentum. That was more than enough to break through the first layer of defense, and victory gives momentum to victory. The enemy knows this so well that they manufacture fake momentum to legitimate their own pre-planned actions.
That's my point. You might consider it guilty until proven innocent, but it is how the American system works.
Innocent people go to jail because they face charges, but those charges are never carried out, not perused, or are dismissed. That is the system that you, very likely, already live in. So did your parents and grand-parents. You may not like it, but that's a reality of even Liberal states. That's how inside the system it is.
Just watched it, he's much less biting than Trump, tbh.
I'd say there is a major point regarding Kamala not appealing to Catholics. Trump actually lost Catholics in 2020, and is leading them now. It really is a critical demographic in most if not all of the swing states.
I'm talking about being a suspected gang member on flimsy reasons. There are plenty of people who've been arrested but completely innocent. Otherwise they wouldn't regularly release people from prison.
And I'm telling you that you can do this even in the US. If they have the probable cause, they can arrest you and interrogate you, and hold you for a while before the prosecutor drops the case and lets you out. It's an uncooth tactic that could breed public resentment, but it's absolutely within the system and the law.
They arrest you on a minor offense, ask the judge to set a high or no bail because given some context you are probably a gang member. Now you will wait months in jail for a minor offense. In the US, they would typically just turn you into a confidential informant. In Ecuador, they are probably just going to interrogate you to rat on others. If either police figure out you don't have anything, they'll let you go, but the message to the gang will be clear: the heat is on.
This is fully excluding an insurrection or terrorist frame. If you do that, now you can expect a lot looser restrictions on what the state is gonna do and how long it's gonna hold you.
That may very well be true for MS-13 affiliated tattoos but I seriously doubt hat MS-13 had a monopoly on all tattoos in El Salvador.
It's not any tattoos, it's specific tattoos. And yeah, it's a monopoly on those tattoos, because they kill you if you aren't one of them. They may also kill the artist if they find out who put it on you. Most likely, you don't get it until your in prison already by an MS-13 prison artist who does it officially. And again, you got that prison sentence from the murder and rape.
This happens in the US too, by the way. Bloods, Crips, Gangster Disciples, Aryan Nation, 1% Hell's Angels, Mongols, whatever. You fly the wrong flag, you'll get killed for it. And yes, MS-13.
Guilty until proven innocent is not working within the system. The police and judicial system has to follow rules as not to infringe on the rights of innocent people. Even criminals are supposed to have rights. These rules were not followed as it was necessary because the cartel problem had grown so much that Bekele had to use a sledgehammer to destroy them.
None of it was guilty until proven innocent. It was a dragnet. This is actually how "tough on crime" law enforcement is actually supposed to work. It looks harsh from a bleeding heart Democrat stance, but it's actually fully allowed within the system, because the makers of the system fundamentally understood that threats to the system had to be acted upon quickly and aggressively.
I'm sure it's unpleasant, but the reason he's popular is because a terror campaign was destroyed by these genuinely legal means.
Mostly, the Passport Bro stuff is stupid and only for upper-class people. Most normal people can't vacation somewhere, fly a woman back to the US, and marry her for a green-card (as if that was ever a good idea in the first place).
Truth is, there are good women, but you actually have to build a social network to find them, be at the top of that, and "Tame The Shrew" as Shakespeare might have put it.
It's harder, but it's not impossible. And it's a better foundation for a relationship that bringing over a foreigner.
Momala
How do you make me hate you even more than I already did?
What kind of fucking anti-charisma talent do you have to have to be an unlikable whore. It's a contradiction in terms!
Is Willie Brown a fucking masochist?
Someone should ask him what a man is.
