America is in the midst of a political realignment — accelerated by Trump. The biggest indicator of how someone will vote is now based on education.

Masked thugs abducting citizens, wives of legislators & kids, self-inflicted inflation, higher prices thru tariffs, capitulation to Putin, assaults on our constitution, due process, rule of law, & equal protection, covering up for pedophiles - But sure “many people want a dictator.”

The uneducated are easy af to manipulate. Just look at what a pig farmer in the Philippines was able to do, or Fox. Republicans, because they’re cynical sacks of shit, have embraced this and used it to their advantage. To save our democracy, Dems need to reign in their idealism and do it too.

I’m thinking the big beautiful bs bill will change that. When the rural hospitals and clinics shut down and they lose insurance all while paying more for basic necessities that they will turn on the right and not show up to vote. Not to mention the friends going bankrupt as there is no field labor

The 2nd amendment drafters had no concept regarding the overwhelming lethality of today’s assault weapons. The average person does not require the level of personal arsenal with that kind of weaponry that we see predominantly on the Right. Their general excuse is for revolution not home defense.

I thought skin color was the biggest indicator of how people will vote. Even with an enshrined disadvantage, in terms of education, Black People were able to figure it out.

Generally speaking, adequately educated people are, for the most part, capable of critical thinking, weighing information and being able to determine fact from fiction. They are capable of doing research on issues and display healthy skepticism. Uneducated folks rely on others for their reality.
