Ma’am the Republicans and Democrats have almost the same ‘apolitical’ bases. The illiteracy is within every level of American society, you can’t choose one silly side to shove all the issues on.
Yeah but I see his logic since anyone still supporting Trump is, at this point, objectively uneducated at best.
That is true, but I don’t see democrats as much better. I see Political literacy as reflected in the pervasiveness and power of grassroot political movements. Something of which America has very little, or if they do exist, get quickly crushed and whitewashed by the politically illiterate (for example, BLM had lots of potential, but was desensitized into nonexistence).
As well, Literacy in general should also be political literacy, since life and politics are inherently intertwined. Education is what has given us average folks the ability to do what was previously impossible, and move the world in ways that weren’t ever before imagined. An illiterate population is a manipulated population.
Leftists are almost as stupid as MAGAs. They’re just not evil.
We just have a massive crisis of stupidity going on, honestly.
The “enlightened centrist” has arrived to show us his fence sitting skills.
Nah, lefties are fundamentally good people who want to help society. Lefties are 10,000% better than the nazi party and I’m a card-carrying Democrat.
But yeah. Got a bad case of the dumb. “Why can’t Biden just give us health care? He’s so old and out of touch”. Not to mention the anarchist/communist “you can’t tell me what to do, MOM” types.
And, a startlingly large part of the core democratic base is the Black and Latino vote who just vote whatever their pastor tells them to vote. We never really mention it but those blocs have no idea what’s happening in politics, and they are culturally conservative.
democrats are conservative, comrade
Left is right
Up is down
We have always been at war with Eastasia
Yeah I can.
Then you’d be among that 54%.
