    Cutting through propaganda. In terms of policy, it's a super easy sell! Convincing them to vote for the party that represents that policy is another matter.

    There was a stat posted the other day saying half of chuds were pro M4A if the Republicans promoted it (and basically zero if it was Democrats) and nearly all Democrats supported it (unless it was promoted by Republicans).

    So ~75% of the electorate could get behind M4A so long as both parties offered it. Don't approach anything as one team vs another, it doesn't work... Policy works past some of the propaganda. But if both parties agree on fundementally right-wing issues people won't change their vote, and they will ignore issues so long as the issues are created by 'their' team.

      Yeah, I feel that one. My theory is that it's because they value their identity as a voter for that party and the social and parasocial relationships built around that way more than the material effects on their lives they believe any of the policies would have.

      Also: Who are you trying to get people to change their vote to?

        Yeah spot on mate.

        I'm not from the US so there is (still) a difference between the two major parties
