Glad for the stats back it up I agree. I think it's a small but very organized minority. Still concerning nonetheless but at least they don't reflect the majority of views in America. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Aston Martin Posted June 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2023 It's easy to forget that same-sex marriage, trans rights, and abortion rights (to name a few social causes) are supported by the majority of Americans because there's a very loud, well-funded Christofascist minority that holds a disproportionate degree of power in both the government and the media. I think we're past the stage where we should prioritize convincing the general public why these causes should be supported (because most already do). Instead, we need to focus on getting these people who oppose these causes out of power and to try to undo the catastrophic degree of damage that they've done to society. 17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClashAndBurn Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 It'll go down if the Supreme Court ever revoke the Obergefell decision, given time. What people tend to accept is the status quo, and after awhile, the post-Obergefell reality will become the new status quo. Eventually the energy around abortion support will also run out and cease to carry Democrats and their otherwise empty electoral futures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MingYouToo Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 What hurts is that I know for a fact that if somehow there was a power out there that could survey every single American, a majority would be favorable to actual socially progressive ideas. Its just that the greedy bastards that have had the chance to accumulate all the power in the country have the power to create an illusion that this country is a backwards hellhole.
