Looking good. Usually go in areas that would already vote for him, getting that turnout up big time
is the campaign pressing the issue on gillum re:taxes
@FLanon tell us what it's like knocking for deSantis. I'd imagine the discourse is very different in real life down there in FL
Boomers and other senior citizens really like me as it turns out
compared to...this server
yeah, I'm not surprised
you fit the responsible intelligent young man image that they'd want their kids to have
Well it's usually "can't vote for a socialist" and all, you mention venezuela and cuba a couple times, then they say they'll definitely vote in November
I'm 18, so this will be my first year voting
nice
Also mentioning Gillum's FBI situation, the fact that he advocated for a corporate tax hike and called it a corporate tax cut, then abolish ICE
There's a ton to pick apart when it comes to Gillum
i was such a cuck when i was 18. registered on my birthday to vote for kerry in 04 a couple weeks later. regret it
what's interesting is, back then being liberal was the countercultural position. that's flipped now
@thr33 you're 32 I'm guessing?
31
turn 32 in late oct
"what's interesting is, back then being liberal was the countercultural position. that's flipped now"
yep, I've met a lot of people like you here in NYC
who mentioned how they were comfortable with the left back then
but not now
i grew up in a generally conservative area a little upstate. then went to college in CA, and it really made me rethink things
i still voted for obama in 08, but became a skeptic in the liberal worldview before 2012
probably around 2010 i think
i'm an independent still, but i can't see myself voting for another dem. they're so bad on immigration now
I've only become more radical
i'm more moderate on econ (skeptical of the welfare state/high taxes, but not 100% for the free market/trade; i think govt intervention is ok), but i think a lot of liberal positions across the board don't stand up to scrutiny
it's absolutely insane watching these scotus confirmation hearings
Went from religious conservative when I was a kid to centrist to libertarian to classical liberal to alt-right to paleocon to theocrat
Economics to me is whatever helps the nation, that's all there is too it. Pragmatic outlook on it
So in essence, I did a bit of a loop
You do know "alt-right" was a fed-media psy-op meant to demoralize people?
it was a different time
i'm not religious, but i've changed a bit. i was a militant atheist in my teens, now i'm an agnostic, but i'm pro judeo-christian values and their importance in founding the west
At first it was anyone on the "right" that was "non-neocon"
the right to me was always synonymous with the religious right and neocons. at some point that changed
i think it was palin/the tea party
and I'm not in that anymore
Then the media cleverly crafted and psychologically conditioned it with the aid of the fed-honeypot men that headed "Alt-Right" things plus the fake break up with the "Alt-lite" yea
i had never heard of the alt-right in any serious way before that retarded speech clinton made about pepe and shit
i mean the term alt-right
