This is because some chuds are working class and just hate liberals but don’t know that socialists exist.

Liberals tend to be wealthier, so they have more invested in the system.

Old-fashioned conservatives also tend to be loaded, which likewise means that few would ever convert.

Thoughts? I wasted my day arguing with a bunch of libs on reddit. The only chud I talked with just told me he’s going to check out Revolutionary Left Radio. He started the conversation by almost threatening to kill me but changed his tone very quickly when I busted out my socialist clichés. The libs, meanwhile, just kept twisting their brains into pretzels.

    Chuds are more likely to be blue collar rather than white collar, but that doesn't mean they aren't wealthier than your typical democratic voter.

    We're much better off trying to convert older black voters than anything else.

      Yeah high-school educated pool supply tyrants are Trump's actual base.

      I talked with some older black folks in SC while phonebanking for Bernie. To me they seemed extremely uninterested in even discussing politics. My guess would be that the church has done an incredible amount of damage in that regard; that they would be Republicans if the Republicans didn’t want to fucking kill all of them.

        Yes, I have had a similar experience and I still think we have a better chance at reaching them than chuds.
