  Those are people who don’t wanna answer. Tbh if some rando was asking which political view I had, I would also not share it.

    If I was approached in the NYC street by someone asking me how I felt about politics, I would not take the risk that they have my name and face already and want to put me in a oligarch’s database.

    Especially when you get asked in a way that makes it clear that they have an agenda.

    Like to ask say, “Do you support what the Mayor is doing with raising taxes on rich residents” they might ask “Would you be ok with having your taxes raised?”

    Then report it in a reframed way later.

    Polls are bull shit no matter what they say.

  About 35% of the unfavorable are the lost ones that vote R because that’s what they’ve always done, what their church tells them, and what their one or two propaganda channels tell them. And the other 10% of those are probably Wall Street and adjacent. The ones that actually do have things to lose, since they’re the ones stealing it from the rest.

  It’s a fair position, as far as they are concerned, they haven’t seen it in action, at least not for very long. So they are waiting to see if it pans out as promised.
