Unless that person is voting for a rapist, say like trump.
Feel free to shame anyone voting for a rapist. People who vote for rapists should be ashamed of themselves.
Being a rapist is barely even in the top three awful things about Trump. That’s how bad he is.
Not sure sending weapons to a genocidal government is the best plan for keeping him out of the White House but hey what do I know
but that’s what the post is saying. Yes, we know Trump is a fucking maroon, but saying that to Trump voters doesn’t work.
The post is asking “Do you to tell them Trump sucks and they vote for Trump anyway, or do you want to lead with policy and potentially change their mind?”
Consider you’re using an app, which you like, and someone says “Oh that app sucks.” You’d think “ok guy!” But if someone said “oh if you like that app you should check out this one, it has twice the functions, and all these quality of life improvements, and it’s more secure and doesn’t have any ads” you’d think “my guy!”
just some food for thought.
Biden is a far better president and presidential candidate with progressive foreign and domestic policies that have tangibly and practically helped hundreds of millions of people.
So we already have that down.
Trump supporters and conservatives in general are clear that they don’t care about policy as much as they care about idolizing someone who hurts other people.
So I think it’s important that they know their candidate has been found liable for the extreme of hurting other people and actually committed rape.
If a conservative cares that much about hurting other people, it should be known widely and explicitly clear that they are supporting a rapist. That clashes more with their false, professed ideals than climate science they don’t believe in or sustainable resource management or a higher value currency.
Meme is like saying politics doesn’t work. Reckon with the consequences of your vote. It’s a two party first past the post system. The math is not that complicated. Be honest about it.
Yeah, this post trying to pass the blame onto people who correctly recognize the consequences of the design of our electoral system seems shortsighted, but these are American voters after all.
It also assumes that the politics of whoever is reading it has “popular” policies. The country is very divided on what’s “popular”. The first step is advocating for your policies and convincing other people of it. It’s a lot easier to just whine and complain and not try to change things and put the responsibility on others. Convincing others of your politics are your responsibility, not others.
Sounds like fascist propaganda to me but ok
Vote shaming doesn’t work because people are stubborn and annoying, not because it’s theoretically unsound. Although yes, adopting popular policies would be good as well.
I don’t understand it but apparently most people respond to shame by doubling down.
Instead of “dude I can’t believe you voted for trump. He’s a rapist failed business man who wants to destabilize Europe and be a dictator” doesn’t yield “yeah I fucked up” in most people, but instead “no you’re an asshole and I did nothing wrong!”
Admitting fault is a power move and more people should embrace it.
To shame someone, he must already agree with you that what he did is wrong, and consider you morally supperior. You can brute-force it with small children, because these propositions hold. Adults will just think you’re an asshole.
Shame is psychologically painful - or brain will do amazing things to avoid that pain. You’re right that admitting fault is a power move, but it requires being able to cope with that potential pain and move forward. Easier to just assert the other person is wrong and avoid that pain completely.
