Half of Gen Z voters — and 1 in 4 U.S. voters overall — have lied to people close to them about who they’re voting for, according to the latest Axios Vibes survey by The Harris Poll.
The findings raise big questions about the limits and future of polling, which relies on voters giving responses reflecting their real-life political behavior.
I’m fully OK with fostering a climate that is hostile towards hate and ignorance. I’d prefer nobody be a bigot, but humanity is imperfect. Making bigots feel the need to hide their ignorance and hate is better than a climate where they feel emboldened to share and spread it.
Not every person who tunes you out is going to be a bigot. If you want to imagine that the only people who are upset with rhetoric like yours are bigots, don’t be surprised when only bigots engage you. You’re complaining about problems you yourself are furthering, plus tell me do you think alienating voters helps or hurts your candidate, because that’s what your rhetoric does. Don’t think your actions can’t influence people to stay home, you’re great at fostering apathy through alienation. Hope your okay with that too.
Every person who supports Trump is a bigot. No exceptions. We’re well past the point of credible ignorance.
And why do you think only Trump supporters are tired of your rhetoric? If you read the article you’d see the largest group among these kids are Democrats, theres also a huge number of independents. Do you think only republicans are tired of patronizing political zealots? Because if so I’d read the article again. Keep digging, but people like you are the reason these kids just lie and keep their day moving instead of engaging. You’re creating the silence you told me you blame for the deterioration of the system.
If you read the article, you’ll see that Democrats are afraid to engage with bigots, because bigots are often violent. For many people, their very existence is reason enough for a Republican to attack or kill them. If my rhetoric offends you, I don’t believe that you’re not one of the bigots.
It’s not just bigots, if that was the case why would independents and republicans also lie about it? There is also nothing in the article that purports that all the democrats who lie about voting are doing so to bigots im beginning to think you still haven’t read it. It would in fact be ridiculous to believe something that total and conclusive across the 27% of gen z democrats who admit to lying about it.
from the article
very curious how you claim all of the democrats only lie to bigots considering no one measured that.
