I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

So your saying people really need a "Mel Gibson" to compel them to not vote for a Hitler (and this is post actual Hitler so we already know the playbook)? The fact that it's even a debate for people is unconscionable for me. How is allowing a man looking to harm a large section of the American population even a choice? How do you not vote against him just so that you can at least know you tried to save someone, even if you yourself feel helpless and without hope. You at least didn't help a man that is going to harm so many.

No, they had a Scotland to fight for. A Scotland where they could have a home, a family, a community, where they could ask a doctor for help and that they could build in a general upward direction.

America nowadays has skyrocketing home costs, a kid who can't leave your basement to make a family, record breaking loneliness, doctors who can't help you even with insurance, and absolutely nothing implying that any of it will get better.

Defend this from the man who will make it hell, so that it will take longer for us to reach hell.

Such a powerful message to send the voters.

I'm sorry, I just think that the Democrats could've won so many more people with better messaging. I have no faith that they will have anything better come 2028. Assuming we still have a democracy come then.
