If voters needed additional motivation to vote against that, it's entirely their fault. "You didn't convince me enough so now I'm going to kill you", a line that a cartune villain would say, and we all understand that it's villain. But " you didn't convince me enough so I vote for that one who is going to kill millions" is apparently an OK take

Most people aren't glued to politics. It's the job of the campaign to get people's attention and give them a reason to vote. They clearly failed at that because they lost. You can blame human nature but a good campaign takes human nature into account and this campaign was not a good one.

Do you want to win or do you just want to blame the people? If you want to win you have to find a way to motivate them whether they are being reasonable or not

Dont copy paste shit in multiple comments, first of all. Supremely lazy.

Secondly, no. There is a certian point where a reasonable person votes against something, and we were way past that point

[-] MisterScruffy@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

Do you give up because people aren't reasonable? Or do you find a way to appeal to them despite that? If you pick giving up then you're letting fascism win

At no point did I suggest giving up, it's just frustrating to have such a slapdash coalition

[-] MisterScruffy@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 months ago

It's frustrating to have to support a party that doesn't understand how to run a popular campaign. This isn't the first time I've seen this. The dems will always kowtow to big donors instead of proposing policy that will make average people's lives better
