[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You will need these swing voters to come back to the Dems in 2022 and 2024, so what is insulting them accomplishing? [/quote]
So the key to winning elections is to coddle voters and just tell them what they want to hear?

Are you kidding??  [i]Yes[/i].  I see we have a very succinct illustration of why Democrats always shoot themselves in the foot.[/quote]
They just don’t get it. It’s not coddling to refrain from labeling every person who agrees with some Republican ideas as a racist or uneducated.[/quote]
[b]Disagreeing doesn't mean you're uneducated, no.  However, when given specific, cited examples of how your disagreeing idea is untrue and still believing it anyway... well, that's being uneducated in my book.[/b] [/quote]

I wouldn't say "uneducated", but I would say "uninformed" if you are not hearing facts or "irrational" if you are hearing them but choosing not to apply them.

Toots, I'm extremely well informed. I just think you're wrong. How about that? Can you stand the idea that people actually disagree with you?[/quote]

Well informed about what exactly? What am I wrong about? Be specific.

One thing I think the Ds keep saying is that the Rs are so dumb they think CRT is being taught in school. I think it’s clear that the instead of beating that dead horse - realize the majority doesn’t WANT it being taught in schools. 
I voted D but I didn’t like the fiasco about getting rid of advanced math. And I do think that was a consideration but when people were angry they backtracked.  I think it was disingenuous of the Ds to act like that was a hallucination. That’s why people didn’t believe it.  [/quote]

It wasn't a hallucination - detracking early grades ([u]not[/u] eliminating advanced math or taking away IB/APs!) was a discussion early on along with a whole slew of other ideas that actually were solid enough to make the infographic.

It wasn't a hidden agenda or goal - it was a discussion point. Maybe ~5 minutes within hours of other topics.

At no point were they "getting rid of advanced math".
