With the undeniable clsterfk we see with Democrats at the helm do any of you sense a change is coming?

That "sour-sweet" smell on the wind, is it possibly foretelling of a shift in our Culture?

Minus the batshit crazy holdouts we see here, I've personally witnessed some pretty Leftist folks coming to their senses.

Anecdotal maybe, but a few in my circle are having a change of heart.

Any of you have any anecdotal evidence of these clowns pulling back from the edge?

I have no faith that they will vote any different regardless of what they see or feel about the current situation.

They want to win elections more than they want to stop the nonsense. Or more specifically they want to prevent conservative from winning and any cost.

I don’t think so. The Left isn’t exactly known for letting up and abiding by live-and-let-live. If it does happen it needs to be with the next generation of voters becoming heavily Republican and not just regionally, which is doubtful at best.

I think there is some change. SOME not a lot.

Liberals more so than most groups have no willingness to self evaluate or consider another position. In other words the unfathomable condition that they may be wrong. Therefore are less likely to change their minds.

I would say with the general population yes, in fact the majority of the population would feel this way.

However, if you mean will it show up in the election, then no.

The media will put front and center stories about racism, hatred for Trump, abortion, student loans, etc.. this will lead to many believing there is 50% plus of the population that voted Democrat and to accept another stolen election.

Sorry to say, but all Democrats are “Sophists”: "A person who makes illogical and counterintuitive arguments to justify their actions and believes they have prevailed despite evidence to the contrary is often referred to as a "sophist" or described as engaging in "sophistry." Sophistry involves using deceptive or fallacious reasoning to make a case appear stronger or more convincing than it actually is. Sophists were historically ancient Greek philosophers and rhetoricians who were skilled in persuasion and argumentation, often emphasizing the art of persuasion over the pursuit of truth or logical consistency. The term "sophist" is sometimes used pejoratively to describe someone who engages in manipulative or deceptive argumentation to win an argument or achieve their goals."

Perhaps

But just because the democrats suck it doesn't mean that people think republicans have all the answers

Both parties are looked at as inept by people that pay a lot of attention

Just my opinion but I doubt they are having political conversions. They probably are blaming it on Biden himself not his policies.

Culturally? Without a shadow of doubt. This cannot be objectively argued otherwise. Woke is done. All that is left to decide and endure is its death throes. Politically and in terms of how people vote? Not at this stage. Too many people have way too much invested in being woke like their whole existence. Idk if they will ever be able to really bring themselves to admitting they were wrong and dumb as frick

They are "fortified" which is like a soft form of cheating. Which is hilarious on brand for the soft form of tyranny wokeism hopes to bring about. But just as easily as the scum fortified them we can undo it and ignore their teeth gnashing. I dont think all is completely lost yet but if this isnt accomplished soon it will be.

Walk around in Boston, go to a bar in NYC, talk to an iron-worker in St. Louis, you will see little shift and whole lot of cognitive dissonance.

I know a few that dislike biden that voted for him. And a few "Trump wasn't as bad as they made him out to be". But they will still vote dem or not at all if their choices are biden vs Trump.

They aren't changing their lefty views.

If elections were real the pendulum would have swung hard in 2022.

Ask yourself, Are politicians acting like votes matter???????
