I agree with you but Im having difficulty figuring out how to convert people who voted to place people in camps.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Step one: don't try to "convert" anyone.

Rather, listen to their worries. You gan point out discrepancies with their world view and show your disapproval if they're really bringing out the racist shit, but don't try to sell them your ideology.

Also, remember that it takes time to change someone's viewpoint. You need to be patient.

So the civility politics route the Dems have been trying for the past 40 years.

How's that worked out?

Non-sequitur much?

In what way have the Dems ever listened to any non-millionaire?

Man, that is all the fucking Dems have done for longer than I've been alive. Ass-patting rural voters and telling them how valid their concerns are, and trying to compromise and show how very 'reasonable' we are.

You wanna track how the rural vote has trended since?

We've not increased our share by validating their basic positions and pointing out contradictions in the details that they'll willfully forget a day fucking later.

No, that's what they've claimed to do while still taking my opponent's side in the class war.
