TDS is so strong

Someone will figure out how to bottle this.
The guy put a Trump sign in his Occoquan, Virginia, store window and a woman customer was so offended she called the police.
What in the world does she think the police should do?
The guy hung a Trump sign.
What makes a woman so crazy?
We have a couple here I guess, but not quite that bad. Maybe the other place has some a little further along, I can't say, I haven't been there for at least several months. I won't look, I think I should stay away for a while.

The best part is when the people most demonstrably off their rocker with TDS, accuse Trump supporters of being in a delusional cult. Trump definitely damaged the connections to reality of millions of people, but it wasn't so much his supporters that took the brunt of that.

Oh, it is beyond question that Trump winning or losing will affect the emotional state of 10s of millions of people, and I am very comfortable believing that, if he wins, the weight of that impact will be greatest in the people who hate him.

@Horace said in TDS is so strong:
impact will be greatest in the people who hate him.
And those who have their businesses burned to the ground by those who hate him.

The best way to make sure that hate has no home in a commercial building, is to burn it down. Nothing can live in an incinerated building - including hate.

TDS is very strong. It's weird. Maybe my apathy is too much, but I sometimes look around and wonder why so many people pin their personal value to voting for someone they'll never meet and likely someone that will have no impact on their life.

Not so much that, but there is this belief that if "my" candidate wins, unicorns will run down the street passing out roses. But if "your" candidate wins, the world (yes, the world, not only the US) will stop to exist. One of the great things about the US is that there are enough check and balance to keep things kind of in the middle.
We have 250 years of history to show that this is not true.

Agreed. In terms of very scientific statistics that cannot be disputed, I would say a good 95% of people voting aren't significantly impacted by who wins.

DEI.
Gender Fluidity in Children
Third semester abortion.
Prison for religious objection.
Tax hike.You voted for Kamala. You tell me...Would paying more taxes affect you? Maybe the school putting your little girl on puberty blockers, rendering her incapable of ever having children, might affect you. Being passed over for a job or gig because of a less talented person of the "right" gender or color...Would that affect you?

Not really. And I didn't vote for Kamala. I don't think the President has that much influence over those legislative issues anyway. Votes for representatives, especially at the state and school board level, have much more of an impact, if any.

2012: 1.2 million votes
2016: 4.4 million votes (3.3% of all votes)
2020: 1.9 million votesIt's not much but in elections so close, there is a big collection of voters who could help play Kingmaker if the parties decided to provide better candidates. I suppose the opposite is true, Trump brings out more than 2 million extra voters by himself so perhaps it doesn't matter that much.

I know. But by not voting for Trump in a binary election, you did add to Kamala's votes.

@89th is non-binary…
Seriously, Jolly? That’s a bullshit argument. Isaac has a voice, he used that voice. He is well versed in the issues and he made a different determination than you. That’s not only allowed, but you should celebrate it. That’s what living in a Democratic Republic is about.
