I think progressives never thought about this because we banked on immigration and demographic change allowing us to win culturally and electorally but the issue is immigrants tend to be overwhelmingly male, that is how Trump won actually he won over a lot of Hispanic,Black,Asian and indigenous men who feel humiliated by a new culture, economy and world.

So what can we do rhetorically and policy wise to win more young men over ?

    Also, after they lost they said anyone who didn’t vote for Kamala was a racist, sexist, nazi almost guaranteeing they will lose mid terms. I’ve moved from Dem to independent because it is clear Dems hate my existence more than they care about winning

      It’s kinda hard to look at what’s currently happening in the US and not feel like every person who failed to vote against trump is a bit of an asshole. What a nightmare we all have to live through now.

        In your mind, what is happening that would cause someone who voted for Trump to be an ass hole, if the other candidate was calling them sexist and racist and an incel loser without even knowing them?

          Project 2025, deportations with no due process, ignoring court orders, destroying all sense of confidentiality to foreign adversaries in the govt, cutting every govt program that politically disagrees with them, starting a useless war with Iran, appointing the worst possible people to his cabinet, pardoning J6 terrorists and calling for the jailing of the J6 committee, trying to fire every judge who disagrees with him, dismantling and wasting our foreign aid resources, not to mention countless counts of lying, cheating, raping, scamming, corruption, hate, etc. Literally name a thing and he’s done it. And this is just off the top of my head.

            Project 2025 has nothing at all to do with trump or this admin lol. “No due process” only if you ignore all the due process they’ve already had.

            Did you just say that the USA started a war with Iran? Lol come on now.

            “Progressives” like you spreading “misinformation” and outright lies like you just did are one of the reasons why you lost almost the entire country.
