Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?

Thinking on “how to sell” instead of “what do they need from us” is setting a path for people not thinking and just following propaganda, which makes them more susceptible for falling into other parties propaganda.

That’s why it’s important to be able to convey your message so people know what you are trying to accomplish with the 2000 page bill

And what if what you try to accomplish or the way you try to do it is not the way they want it done?
A common problem with the left movements these days is that they put more effort in convincing that in listening, because everyone who becomes politically active automatically thinks they know better than everyone else.

Then you don’t get elected…
What I find funny is I have the exact opposite opinion that the left spends more time trying to appeal to voters than actually communicate what they are trying to do. So we end up with things like 250B to boost American manufacturing that got completely ignored

Maybe no political party should have more than 5% of the votes. The fact that 50% of the population could agree on all issues doesn’t feel possible to me.

Why you change my words?
Anyway, they think they know, but they don’t. They don’t know better than anyone else, due the nature of politics their opinion on matters should not have any more weight than the common folk, that’s why we chose democracy as a form of government anyway. If we do not believe in the fact that everyone opinion matter the samy I don’t know why would we pretend it does, let’s stablish an aristocracy and be done with it.
