It’s crazy, I thought democrats were the ones who lacked a sense of humor. But judging by the reaction to the name of the call, it’s clearly republicans who have zero sense of humor. Please have a White Russian and chill!

But it is most prevalent among Democrats and liberals. I don't think it's inane. It may seem minor to you, but the gender gap is real. And the whole "dude" thing just makes it more apparent. Might as well trot out Ned Flanders to propose that "us dudes" have a talk about voting for Democrats. It's embarrassing and off-putting. There is also an undertone of condescension to it--like we're not even going to call you a "man" or "men," but rather "dudes."

? do white men not call each other dude?


If you were a man, you'd know that it isn't as common as you think, and it isn't in the dopey way that these political groups do it.

But the people who created "White Dudes for Harris" are presumably "white dudes", no?


Yes, they are extremely embarrassing white men that many other men would naturally avoid, so, yes, in that respect, they are the perfect "white dudes."



No, Jeff Bridges was on the call. What better name could they come up with when the Dude is a speaker?!

Poster is an inane person.


PP (and most others in this thread) are prime examples of why the Democratic Party will continue to lose male voters.

It's a normal, everyday word. Casual, yes, but we aren't writing formal reports for school when we talk in everyday conversations.

It's an odd thing to object to, actually.

Personally, as a male, I find it pretty cringey. Reeks of people who are trying to seem cool and relatable but have no real connection to the average guy. It is approaching Latinx status. I wish they would stop.


This whole election on all sides in cringe. Because the Gen Xers and old millennials running both campaigns are cringy dorks.

Yes, why do we have a thread on Trumps shoes?

All these threads end up bashing Trump anyway no matter the supposed topic.

Right.

Why do Republicans read something online and immediately attribute it to half of the people in the United States?


I said it seems most prevalent among Democrats. Not that all Democrats do it. Put your head in the sane all you want, but consider whether things like this contribute to pushing men away from the Democratic Party. It is embarrassing to listen to, and I would never associate with something like that.


Ok hon, you stay over there caring very much about men calling themselves dudes, and the rest of us will be over here trying to elect the person who doesn’t want to end American democracy. Deal?


You do you, but you're a fool. You are pushing people away instead of listening. That is the Democrats problem. Same braindead as always.


Lol
