Parents old school blue collar union workers + upper middle class elitism / educaton looking to stroke their ego thinking they are intellectually superior and conservative whites are just KKK clansman and Christian nazis.

Why do black people vote Democrat? They have been used by Democrats for decades. LBJ's quote says it all.

Mainly females, but the youth in this country have been brainwashed with tats, nose rings, and blue hair!

Why would Democrats have elected a straight white man (Biden) to become president if they hated straight white people...

I don't think either side has white interests in mind, it's all about pandering to blacks and Hispanics.

The GOP sucks and MAGA has lots of clown behavior, but I can’t comprehend grown men voting for the party that openly disparages masculinity, personal responsibility, merit, etc.

I just never will.

We've been through this. There is an NPR set in every city.

Also, while Trump has flipped this somewhat, there are a lot of union baws married to the Dem party.

A lot of how people vote has to do with peer pressure and peer acceptance. Everyone subconsciously craves a sense of belonging.

An arse ton of people on this board definitely come here for a sense of belonging.

For example, a lot of "baws" or what would be considered "baws" in New England vote Democrat because voting Republican in New England largely is associated with being uneducated and low-rent and hick-ish.

I spoke about this with NIH earlier.

It's REALLY hard to imagine how this:



is in a political party with this:



And I know some of our MAGA evangelicals will try the "black people" whataboutism, but the educated, professional Republicans aren't really associating with lower class black people, either. That's educated, professional liberals.

Because the Republican Party is now the party of bitter old geriatrics that demonize education, civility, and equity. It used to be about small government, strong economy, and family values. Now it’s just about sticking it to the other side.

This is the correct answer.

The t.v. people plus all their college professors plus their movies and music.
