Forgive my ignorance please, I'm not an american. I see these posts often on reddit and lemmy, but shouldn't these posts be displayed on tiktok, billboards, or anywhere that those poeple who don't vote frequent? Is there any stat at all to show whether such posts work?
kids are force fed the bible
Well that can't be true
Republicans are strongly against feeding children after all

“I’m not going to vote because democrats aren’t communist which makes them basically republicans” - average Lemmy.ml user
Jk it’s actually something more like “I’m not going to vote because I’m European”
it’s actually something more like “I’m not going to vote because I’m European”
That or they’re not of legal age.
Every time the Dems lose, they go to the center to find voters. Want them to stop going to the center? Then give them overwhelming and consistent victories.
If you think you can change their platform by not voting or voting 3rd party, you're dead wrong. They will just go to the center voter even more. This is not a Mexican standoff that you can win, because they have an out which is worth double (a center voter is both a vote for them and vote taken away from the other party).
Okay but voting is a group project and everyone I’m partnered with is ignorant and short-sighted.
God, I hate fighting people just to get them to vote in a way that makes mathematic and strategic sense.
Our voter turnout is shameful. And oh man, the primary elections turnout... (Chefs kiss) Abysmal.
Which is why Reps are the ones constantly vying for various "voter security" measures (voter suppression).
Vote like your life depends on it. Because it does.
I don't mind the kids being force fed the Bible. At least they're getting something in their bellies.
