that one JNLI just saw, as I do here daily, a sarcastic response to a headline about expansion of a progressive program, which read "Hmm, vote to make my life better, or vote against my own interests. how to decide?"
THIS. IS. NOT. THE QUESTION. Never was. Not for anyone.
It's "Vote to make my life better, OR *VOTE TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES WORSE*" and people do it because they are told that this is THE ACTUAL WAY to make their own lives better, and this news feels AWESOME to a threat-activated brain.
