A place to discuss politics and offer political commentary. Self posts are preferred, but links to current events and news are allowed. Opinion pieces are welcome on a case by case basis, and discussion of and disagreement about issues is encouraged!

The intent is for this community to be an area for open & respectful discussion on current political issues, news & events, and that means we all have a responsibility to be open, honest, and sincere. We place as much emphasis on good content as good behavior, but the latter is more important if we want to ensure this community remains healthy and vibrant.

Content Rules:

  1. Self posts preferred.
  2. Opinion pieces and editorials are allowed on a case by case basis.
  3. No spam or self promotion.
  4. Do not post grievances about other communities or their moderators.

Commentary Rules

  1. Don’t be a jerk or do anything to prevent honest discussion.
  2. Stay on topic.
  3. Don’t criticize the person, criticize the argument.
  4. Provide credible sources whenever possible.
  5. Report bad behavior, please don’t retaliate. Reciprocal bad behavior will reflect poorly on both parties.
  6. Seek rule enforcement clarification via private message, not in comment threads.
  7. Abide by Lemmy's terms of service (attacks on other users, privacy, discrimination, etc).

Please try to up/downvote based on contribution to discussion, not on whether you agree or disagree with the commenter.

Before getting mad remember that it's asian and latino men "that are allows and have chosen to vote."

Would be interesting if in elections only the most disenfranchised populations could vote

[–] Allonzee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

If only they were allowed to vote, would they still be the disenfranchised ones?

I do so love being the most awful gender of the most awful race of the most awful country of the most awful species in the worst of all possible worlds.

And I’m supposed to make friends with these assholes?

Whatever this is, doesn't work and wont solve anything.

If you're american, get some guns and take a play from their book. The idea that liberty is the base position for humanity is wrong. You actually have to go and do something.

Does this include people who didn't vote? Like is this if everyone of that demographic voted, or just a demographic map of people who did vote?

I honestly think these maps and graphs and whatever should always include those who didn't vote. That's honestly the metric that is fucking up the elections the most.

I'm a white dude, apparently one of the relatively few left ones. It's probably because of AuDHD, I grew up knowing what it was like to be in the out group. I lived full time in Honduras for a few years, and not with the military, so I kinda know what it's like to be an immigrant. I had to deal with their visa/immigration system there. It's not the same, I'm not saying that it is, but I've lived the experience of making community and friends and being reminded by the government that you don't belong here. I also got to see the immigration issue from the perspective of the people that are subject to it. A lot of these Trump fucks have enjoyed the luxury of never questioning anything, just cruise, watch your hunting shows, live in your bubble and recite your fox news/ tim pool bullshit. I know the type, and it is utterly inconceivable to them that the could ever end up in the out group, and it's a fucking interesting ride to be along for when they do end up there. Unfortunately, too few of them realize that they weren't just being singled out by the deep state or Satan because life is a show about them, and that that's just life for people in the out group.

Not true cause the election was rigged as admitted by taco diaper donny himself, so we have no idea what the actual results would be.

If I zoom in the picture blurs. Is there anybody else seeing that or is it just my client?

As a man and Asian, I guess the stereotypes are true.

Interesting. May I ask where the data is from? From the picture there seem to be more demographics available.

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Can we see something like this for ages, too? I heard stats saying that young men (maybe white men in particular) went heavily for Trump, but men ages 70+ went heavily for Harris.
