   Things are getting interesting, because people like RJKjr is peeling off exactly because he does care about things like freedom of speech.
   
   This is indicative.

     @007 That's the thing though - RJKjr isn't "woke" and the reasons why he decided the democratic party won't do anything for him are important.
     
     In a two-party democracy, you have to look at how the game is played. And what this is looking like is a realignment, which is pretty rare.
     
     I think he is indicitive of a lot of whites that are like him: care about the environment, health, etc. But also don't like open racial hatred, not that they even think it is evil, it just is something "distasteful"
     
     But for a long time, those types have hung on with the democratic party, but now seem to be deciding they are actually independent.

     @sickburnbro all this tells me is he's not willing to cancel the wokes which is the only reason anyone under 40 wants to vote for trump

     @sickburnbro He's leaving dems because they bailed on classical liberalism. But I bailed on classical liberalism too, just for different reasons. So a guy saying return to that just isn't compelling

     @007 Oh, I'm not at all compelled by anyone telling me "hey bro, just trust us bro" but more that it means people aren't going "WELP gotta go vote for the democrats!"
     
     I think I've been pretty clear in the long run, I think people should vote what they want and get what they ask for. When people become used to corruption the only result you get is more corruption.

     @007 this isn't just boomer liberals. There are a lot of 20-40 year old guys in places like CA and NY/CT/MA that feel this way.

     @sickburnbro I'm not the normal audience, he's appealing to boomer liberals not me. I just wish these guys would understand why illiberalism is appealing. There's no option to vote for that. You're not allowed to run on that platform without getting canceled. So being anti-cancel culture is ridiculous.

     @007 I mean, no. I've literally worked with people like this. This is why I talk about the guy who works in NYC in finance.
     
     He makes enough that he is insulated from the policies that he supports, but this is literally him. He has a wife and kids.

     @NoDoxGregBrady @007 as we've seen from Springfield, all the regime had to do is buy them off.

     @sickburnbro @007 A third of the country is brown, and that doesn't even account for the Mexicans who choose "White" on the forms. The political parties are lining up as "brown" and "not-racist".
     
     Where we are right now, if you want to play the politics game, those are your choices. "Kill All Wypipos" or "I Don't See Race".
     
     It's not going to stay that way for long. But for right now, those are the sides. The Democrats are no longer an "American" political party. They're strictly the party of the invasion.
     
     The Republicans, by contrast, see nothing wrong with the invasion.

     @007 you have to be able to talk to someone in language they understand. Right now people like the ones I mention have no way of understanding "not liberalism"

     @sickburnbro Classic liberalism is the official state ideology, so of course people on the state's payroll don't challenge it. That's never been me, I've been on the dissent side for years. I want to see liberalism get taken down not rescued. Defending it just comes off as a cold take. Liberalism is the reason we have this migrant invasion. That's not going away by doubling down on more liberalism.

     @sickburnbro You have lefties "right to immigrate" vs righties "right to sovereignty." It just goes in circles forever until somebody comes along who says both your rights are fake and gay.

     @sickburnbro I'd be happy to see that put into practice against the left. But nobody on the mainstream right ever seems willing to do that.
