Nah, he’s from California, too much of a ‘disconnected coastal elite’ (and they just lost with Kamala)

Time for a ‘centrist’ figure from the rust belt to reach out to people, someone who sheds the ‘elitist’ imagery…like a Fetterman ticket

i was suprised even in r/politics how much he is despised

and for the right reasons even. but someone like him, with less brain damage, could probably save their party

but they doesn’t exist

r/politics has likely no more than 100,00 unique human users(). The Internet is dominated by power users who drown out “normal” (if you can find such a person) people’s voices. This power user effect is how you get stuff like the outage over Peanut the squirrel.

This, combined with the swarms of bots has lead me to believe that any sort of Internet option monitoring cannot be used seriously.
