Democrats bet on a lot of stupid assumptions. They think by expressing some supposed stance on a given subject, be it race, sex, whatever, that they now own all of those voters. Remember when Biden said something like "black people are stupid if they don't vote for him"? They have a sense of entitlement that they didn't earn.

Its an unpopular take but I stand by it, Feminists blaming sexist men for Trumps victory is absolute bullshit and sounds just like Trumpists blaming everything on "woke" culture.
Misogynists are the enemy of feminists, they were always going to vote against a woman. I expect my enemy to fight me, why arent the feminists making a giant fucking ruckus about the TRAITORS to their own gender?
Women are 50% of the population and their body autonomy was on the line and they still didnt turn up.
They dont teach it in history class, but women did not get the right to vote until after the Suffragette bombing and arson campaign
I wonder why they dont teach that in school....
I'm pretty sure this is because people pay more attention to Facebook and TikTok than actual fact checked sources. It's the secret sauce of Republicans.
I was just listening to Pivot yesterday, they were saying of the top 10 news reaction podcasts in the US, 8 of them were republican aligned. Only 2 were blue leaning, and they were like position 6 and 10 and hosted by the same host! Dems have relied on traditional media, and it aint workin.
It's more the case that the Democrats ran a right wing campaign and didn't convince or inspire thier own supporters to vote for them. Kinda important when voting is voluntary.
