  • But, at the end of the day, if you want people’s votes, you’re going to have to figure out how to display some level of empathy, because openly hating everyone who votes differently hasn’t worked to win them over to your side.

    First of all, I hate them for who and what they voted for and not becsuse it happened to be different. This isn’t some pick a team and hate everyone else thing, they chose evil.

    I also don’t want their votes, and chasing those votes is a fool’s errand. Spending the time motivating disengaged people to show up like Obama and other candidates with positive messaging is the path to success.

    I’m a dude and being told to calm down seems like the male equivalent of calling someone hysterical. I have only ever seen someone told to calm down when the person is being calm, but doesn’t like something and might be making a face. It is a condescending denial of emotion just like telling someone not to get upset before giving them bad news.

    Just let me get upset and verbally express my frustration or disappointment!
