[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't seem like democrats are going to adjust their platform at all. They seem to be doubling down, if anything. They are spending millions to learn "how to talk to young men," learning their slang in a "hello fellow kids" way. That means they are going to be consistent with their issues but adjust their messaging a bit. [b]Probably this time, they won't hire a bunch of gay actors to pretend to be straight white men and say hilarious things like "I'm man enough to vote for Kamala Harris."[/b]

Dem top issues will remain the same: trans, gay, race quotas, the patriarchy, white women as "the problem," Palestine, protesting as the peak expression of politics, and getting more women to have abortions. [/quote]

What are you referring to here? [/quote]

I'm referring to a campaign ad that Kamala released with a bunch of gay actors repeatedly saying "I'm a man" and "I'm man enough to vote for Kamala Harris." It was an uncomfortable watch. I imagine it must have felt like how we as women would feel if they had Ellen DeGeneres dress up in a floral dress with high heels, talk about how she liked to feel pretty and that voting for Trump made her feel feminine.

If so, this is really cringe[/quote]
This ad illustrates what I think are the Democrats' three biggest problems:

1. None of the decision makers and insiders in charge of picking which policies to highlight and selling the party and its candidates to the American people has anything in common with most Americans.

2. Worse, these weirdo decision makers and insiders have completely marginalized anyone remotely normal. Thus, even the "normal people" lower down the food chain or on the periphery of their circles who should serve as a fresh pair of eyes on ideas are either ultra weird as well or feel they have to play weird to avoid being marginalized.

3. Worst of all, Democratic decision makers have zero self-awareness. They have no clue that they and everyone in their circles have nothing in common epistemologically, ontologically, and experientially with 99% of Americans.

I could grab 100 random people off the street and hardly any would need more than 15 seconds of that ad to say that only the Black actor is believable as a typical man. The other alleged men are clearly gay, trans, or effeminate. Selecting outliers to speak on behalf of the majority comes off as unwitting parody or yet another manipulative attempt to displace traditional masculinity with newfangled varieties Democrats find less offensive. Yet no one who had anything to do with this ad from conceptualization to airing understood that? If ever there was a smoking gun that Democrats are led by elitist fringe weirdos in a very delusional echo chamber....
