"if dems hadn't won the two elections they won, they would have lost both". Now that's some fucking genius logic right there folks. 

I think the point was the rules for the Biden victory were different from every other election we’ve had in recent times. These rules benefited Democrats, clearly. I know it’s been a long time which makes it difficult to think up there, and I know the Oilers could end the agony, but let’s try to think clearly, man. You can do better. I know you don’t think that, but it’s true





if you don’t believe that, the advances to quantitative computing are astounding in the last year. You can ask AI and learn something for yourself, but you have to know how to phrase the right question. Here’s the question to ask AI. Post into Google and learn. You are welcome.

“did the 2020 general election have different rules for voting?”

States control their voting rules. That’s in the Constitution literally.  So yes, there are different rules for voting EVERY ELECTION. 

Rules that make it easier to vote and increase turnout benefit Democrats. 

Thanks for more pearls of wisdom that blow our minds. 

you should head over to the canadian politics thread and listen to him wax poetic about the hypocrisy of us still having a monarchy while "crying" about trump. 

cuz last I looked, the king of england has pretty much zero power beyond a figurehead, but hey, I'm a Manitoba Genius, so what do I know?

Mental stability and an aversion to neurotic authoritarians are apparently Democratic kryptonite.

Nate Silver, an American statistician and founder of the now-shuttered political analysis blog FiveThirtyEight, recently dug into why men, young men in particular, don't like Democrats — a trend that has Democratic operatives scrambling both for answers and Joe Rogan-sized remedies.

Silver indicated that a big part of Democrats' problem might be that those young men beyond their reach are not mentally unstable or attracted to a mentally ill style of politics.

Losing men

Democrats — whom Americans largely regard as weak and ineffective — are right to be desperate.

'Young men's attachment to the GOP has grown.'

After all, in the 2024 election, President Donald Trump captured 60% of the white male vote, 54% of the Hispanic male vote, and 21% of the black male vote toward a combined total of 55% of the male vote overall.

And  boy with the middle name curse I get your obnoxious first grade sarcasm... that's in no way you're comment about myself genius it's a comment about your constant need to cut others down. Enjoy this post, it applies

Validity wanes when people are asked to self report mental and emotional well being. Too many internal factors come into play. 

‘The study found that conservatives rate themselves higher on personality and attitude measures like religiosity, marital status and patriotism, all of which are associated with better mental health.

Yet when researchers substituted the term "overall mood" for "mental health" in survey questions, the ideological gap disappeared.

This discrepancy may be explained by conservatives' greater discomfort with the term "mental health," which has become politicized and stigmatized in right-leaning circles.

"I would say that the main reason we may see this is because conservatives tend to take on more masculine traits, valuing things like toughness and seeing weakness in people who need help," Schaffner said.

He added a reference to the article: "Many mental illnesses often are stereotyped asdangerous, unpredictable, indicative of bad character, or a sign of personal weakness.

"Under a conservative ideology that emphasizes stability, security and personal agency, the thought of mental illness may invite thoughts of the unknown, or appear as a threat to their security."

It’s why the shoulder pads, extra long tie, snapping the suit jacket and pushing people out of the way appeals to his base.

Did you catch COOTWH’s response to the video of Macron’s wife pushing him at the airplane door? COOTWH’s advice? “Keep the door closed.”

You realize he is joking, right? (My preference is he doesn’t joke like that, but it’s not important here). The point of silvers research is to try to determine why democrats have lost votes with every demographic, which is unusual in these polarizing times where the huge majority of voters stay in their silos.

All the replies above make light of silver trying to peer into the worst 2024 demo, the manosphere. Glad to see so may here think their losing so many voters is funny.

They are losing men because one party says ‘men be better and step up’ and the other is saying, ‘hey be your unrestrained self and do/say what you want’ and then prove that being leading by that same example. 

Like, how do you combat that?

I don't know, the Democrats should be the party of Andrew Tate.  That should be the goal.

Unfortunately, “your body, my choice” has resonance and appeal in ‘Murica of the 21st century. As do shirts like this.

Dems gonna Dem.

I love the claim “religiosity, marital status, and patriotism, all of which are associated with better mental health”. 

Interesting how that doesn’t bear out in the real world outside of the US. I simply can’t reconcile the angry white male who wears tshirts like the one above as having superior mental health over even a gnat.

Where was that claim?  I must have missed it.  I will say that I would agree that a HAPPY marriage would certainly be connected to better mental health.  Or any happy partnership.  I think humans need companions naturally.
