sorry must repubs have jobs, alot of people that have walked away, just dont have time to march about it , but its happening though, im proof of that
Are you retsrded?
Walk away is for Dems. Republicans aren’t walking away so why would they be there.
As you noted Republicans have jobs. We all know Dems don’t. So they can go.
You are proof. Yeah. Your anecdotal evidence is highly compelling.

The "founder" of the astroturfed walkaway movement is sketchy AF too.

So you would film yourself saying a bunch of stuff you don't believe, and that would anger the side of the aisle that launches cyberbullying campaigns and organized efforts to get people fired, for a fee?
It better be one helluva lot of money.
And that money would be a lot more effective and reach a lot more people if used for something other than the 351st disgruntled ex-Democrat on YouTube.
As far as the other half of the OP - the GOP encouraging it - well, no duh. Both parties want to flip voters to their side. Republicans just got lucky and had an effective hashtag fall into their laps.

The whole "Russians" fear is ridiculous.
It's the birther movement moved to 2018
The Chinese are actually "interfering" in Elections as well, and no one cares?

Exactly what evidence would you like me to present?
To my knowledge, there haven’t been any cross sectional studies analyzing the prevalence of actual walk awayers vs bots, so I don’t know what evidence you expect me to find beyond my own anecdotal evidence. And I already presented the acnectdotal evidence I had, a friend who was a lifelong, hardcore dem and who has bought in fully to walk away. Knowing him since high school, if he is willing to walk away, I have to presume that there are others looking to do the same.
Obviously that’s imperfect evidence, but if we approximate that I know maybe 2000 people and that 1 of them falls in this category, then extrapolating that to the entire population would give us approxamitely 175,000 in the walk away movement. That’s probably a terrible estimate, but knowing which direction it’s skewed is impossible to tell.
Statistically speaking, yes, that’s a small percentage of the overall population, I’m not disputing that. My argument is solely what my friend who ‘walked away’ has communicated to me, that he’s sick of people like you diminishing his reality because it doesn’t fit the narrative that you’ve built. He’s sick of the things he cares about getting summarily dismissed under this guise that everything is the russians’ fault and that none of the blame lies with a democratic party that is increasingly telling him that his morals and his hardships don’t matter. And I oersonally doubt he is alone in that mindset. That’s all I’m trying to communicate.
And for the record, I often provide overly long text walls because I understand that every thought that becomes words looses a portion of it’s meaning, so I tend to over explain. That said, my last message was only maybe 300 words, and I don’t consider that to be a particularly burdesome read, so maybe it’s partially just a taste preference
Whatever the case, I’m simply trying to communicate a truth to you that you seem to be unwilling to consider: that ‘walking away’ is something that at least some subset of lifelong dems feel compelled to do. At least based on what I’ve observed from my personal social network. Overarchingly dismissing that is part of the democratic party’s problem.

Sweet. Has nothing to do with my point about republicans.
And rhetorical questions didn’t need them.
Jobs: are you stupid? I just said that Dems have no jobs so they can march.
You seem less interested in what I wrote thanj just spouting off.
Proof: you are anecdotal. I guess you don’t realize that is the worst.
The last part is just dumb. Republicans are scared or else hannity, Ingraham, Savage, Rush wouldn’t be cracking the whip.
That sounds stupid. Just like yours.

You have nothing. What would I like? Some numbers.
175k. Lol
Dude. You have no truth. You have one person. And I know something is up cause no one writes this much based on one person. No intelligent person derives a conclusion based on one person.
And I didn’t diminish anything. Narrative I’ve built.
You are killing it.

Would it bother him to find out that the movement was created by GOP operatives and russian bots used to push it to trending?
What does it say about people who were tricked into believing this was a grass roots movement?
