That was a good read, thanks for sharing. I agree with his caution. Probably the most important line there is the one people seem to most often forget:
You could also say online sub-communities often vastly underestimate how important the views of a minority of the electorate are. It doesn't matter if a majority of your peers in the US, or even the world, think Trump is unelectable or that Harris will win in a landslide. The young left in the US sometimes loses sight of that because their social media bubble constantly reinforces a positive news cycle about their candidate and a negative news cycle about their opponent.
