Do you really think this is still true in 2023?

    Democrats literately have been dying at a higher rate than the WASPs, and loosing this demographic warfare.

    You are absolutely going to need to provide a source for this claim. I can already imagine some nutjob twisting this statement from “people who live longer tend to be conservative,” into “people who are conservative tend to live longer!”

    I could just as easily take this hypothetical class reunion and say “well one conservative died at 30 from accidentally shooting himself, one conservative died at 40 from being antivax and getting COVID, and one conservative died at 50 from lack of health insurance (everyone needs health insurance).”

      You said it facetiously but in reality COVID really did kill almost 50% more conservatives than liberals.

      Conservative governments around the world made the connection that a virus that mostly killed old people was going to be bad news for their polling if left uncontrolled. Only in the US did conservatives seem to do not only the exact opposite, but added anti-mask, anti-lockdown and anti-vaccination on top - as if they were trying to get their voters killed.

      Biden beat Trump by 10,000 votes in Georgia. Thanks antivaxxers!
