    Yeah, it actually DOES bother me that some people don’t care about constant atrocities committed on helpless innocents. I’m kooky like that!

    I wouldn’t think that Donald Trump levels of casual indifference towards the mass murder and systemic torture of fellow human beings would be the norm amongst Democratic voters, but I guess it either is or there’s something wrong with the methodology of the statistics you so gleefully present as redemptive of your Dear Leader…

        There’s different priorities and then there’s a near-total disregard for the lives and well-being of fellow humans.

        There’s disagreement on whether economic or social issues are more important. Whether foreign policy is important or only domestic issues really matter. Tons of room for legitimate disagreement there.

        And then there’s being indifferent to some of the worst atrocities humans have ever submitted other humans to being perpetrated in your name using weapons paid for by your tax dollars and political cover by the politicians you have chosen to represent you.

        If that doesn’t bother you, WHAT fucking does?

            Voters do not care. Full stop.

            Yeah, I often protest in the streets and on campuses, risking arrest or much worse from cops and Zionist agitators based on “not caring” 🙄

            I’m not a statistician, so I’m gonna let someone else locate the smoking gun, but those statistics CANNOT reflect actual reality. Especially since at least the first one suggests that people aren’t really That worried about CLIMATE CHANGE either.

            I’m thinking maybe sampling bias or asking the questions in Norwegian? 🤔
