Do the work. Perform, don't be performative. Stop trying to fix cultural problems with politicians.

@blankslate2017 People on this app will be irritated with your post. Get off this app and look around, and people see there is less desire for anything resembling last term - which make your points more relevant. Her motions right now are likely discovery for herself too - she's testing waters.

Who is advising her? I haven't really seen anything from Harris thus far that indicates that she's ready to make adjustments for a different electorate and to address her own baggage from her prior 2 runs and term as VP.

@HarrisPrez28 She should have picked him last time, and we all know the two possible reasons she didn't. Whether her running again is a good idea or not will be up to the people; could be a good idea could not be, but it is far from obvious both ways.

@mferrini @NickyFrank30 That's why Pete says the problem is now people go places to tune in for other info - like something about protein powder - but then while they are there, they are ha ing politics also thrown at them.

@FishBanc @NickyFrank30 Rogan's podcast is still the #1 rated & all he, along with his doofus brethren do is dispense terrible conspiracy theories & dis-info 24/7 to the point that more people than ever before are credulous believers in anti-science moon landing hoaxes, etc., so fractures make it worse.

@mferrini @NickyFrank30 In the old days we got news from 4 or 5 editors. So while they had far more imoact/power, they also had more e pertinent and were morally responsible. Now they're mostly just salespeople

@mferrini @NickyFrank30 Yeah but it is more fractured and varied than ever before;and far less of it is being consumed the way it used to; so it's even less to blame really. What sells or appeals to people - like rage vs hope - is cultural first. The profit centers are quick to "reflect" that

@FishBanc @NickyFrank30 I'm not discounting it, I'm just saying look at how the US media/social media treats Trump/MAGAts vs everyone else. The coverage isn't remotely commensurate. The dimmest facet of the dumbest electorate on earth voted for a lifelong convicted conman AGAIN cause of fear/loathing.

@ErlineP In fact in Nov 2019 Buttigieg was double Harris's SC primary polling.

So many annoying people reacting to the New Hampshire polls by saying, "Wait until they poll South Carolina." They think they're being so clever. Pete actually didn't do badly in the polls leading up to the SC primary in 2020. He'll almost certainly do better now.
