i can’t even guess as to why they went quiet. not one guess at all. we will never know.
edit: well they’re not quiet now once they get called out
Come around to what? People vote on emotion. And aren’t on Lemmy.
If there is a next election and people are feeling bad about the Republicans they might be looking for a different answer but it won’t be nuance.
Hoping for the general dumb populace to understand that a do nothing centrist is their best option to someone that agrees with them about items they passionately feel about is not going to happen. They will need to feel the other candidate supports them more properly than what they are getting which is why Trump won.
No nuance is gonna fix that and it’s cool to believe and hope that people will just come around to “better” conclusions.
What people will need to see and will often come around to us change. Hopefully more of us recognize that will happen anyways and help grab the reigns from the awful people who would hold them to oppress and use them to lead. But none of us in this comment chain right here will have the reach you are hoping for to ease your mind.
The words mean nothing without action and support.
