democrats are politically center-right for in the entire western world, so it's not at all a stretch to be conservative, religious, and democrat all at the same time.
the way i've politically sparred with them on lemmy proves to me that this is what most of the people of .world and .ee are like; status-quo americans.
Yes. That's a lot of older African-Americans, from what I've heard. Church every Sunday, but they'd chew off their own leg before they vote Trump.
My impression is that the average .world user is a progressive. Some stray towards centrism, some are communist. The Pol-Pot post I saw was on Hexbear.
IRL, well, you know.
as i said earlier, .world is center-right; i don't get any sense of progressiveness from them.
they might be progressive compared to republicans, but not compared to your average western european or latin american or canadian; aka the western world.
