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

THIS election was an existential fight right now at home

Like they said, longtime Dems have been hearing this for at least the last few elections, if not longer than that. This messaging doesn't work anymore, it's crying wolf to many people

And now the wolf came.

The danger was real, unlike the dangers Republicans scream about. Why didn't anybody tell THEM they're crying wolf?

You never read that story, did you?

Did you?

Every time Republicans got elected they did terrible things. Every time the warning was correct

In the story people are warned when nothing bad was coming, but Republicans have been led by evil people since at least Reagan

Republicans are the ones who was really calling wolf with all their fake panics, but nobody ever calls them out for it

False flags mean nothing bad is happening, right?
