They don't have a memory of a time when liberals were the live-and-let-live guys and conservatives were mostly right-wing religious types.

This is my 22-year old son. He's voting for Trump for economic and immigration reasons primarily. (He's got a good paying job after graduating from college last May). We spend a lot of time talking politics, but I can't seem to budge him off Trump. He tells me "why would I vote for a party [the Democratic Party] that hates me."

The current US president is a white male. All but one Dem US president have been white males. The current Dem VP candidate is a white male. In 2021, white men were 30% of the population, but 62% of office holders. While GOP is basically all white males, the Dems are still skewed heavily toward white males. How does he figure the party hates him?

"Democratic candidates, on the other hand, were 44% women and 32% people of color – still shy of a one-to-one match with the country’s overall demographics, but far more inclusive than the GOP’s virtual erasure of entire communities."

What demographic is missing from the DNC platform? I don't see dem politicans going for the white dude. I don't see the GOP explicitly mentioning white men in particular either despite making up much of their voting base.

It's like they're invisible from party platforms because some how associating with a white dude makes you racist or something. It's really really wierd.

Is the VP candidate invisible to you?

Don't look at the white man next to that woman.

Red is back, up is down. We have always been at war with Eastasia.

Is that VP cannidate advocating for whitey?

First, no one can shame anyone. Shame is a feeling you have inside because of how you feel about the information you have before you. It is internal, not external.

Second, disagreeing with someone's vote is not "shaming" them. Saying so is a victim mentality (i.e., "You made me feel this way.") If you are confident in your vote, no one can make you feel ashamed of it.

Finally, if you understand Trump's platform to be anti-democracy, then it is not hypocritical to tout democracy and point out to Trump voters that they are voting against democracy. If the Trump voter is ashamed of that (and I seriously doubt they are), it's because they feel inside that they've done something wrong.
