Nobody wants to vote for those things, you misunderstand what problem governments are trying to solve by being tough on crime.

I want to vote for those things.

I'm told by my blue friends that I'm naive. Reds call me a socialist.

This is by design. It is intentional. Billions of dollars are spent giving people these 'views'.

Sanders gave people an opportunity to vote for "those things", and he was the clear favorite to take out Trump - until Democrats pulled every dirty trick to scupper his campaign. Again.

So people really do want to vote for these things, but massive effort is put into not giving them the option. Sanders is the most popular politician in America, every year - and instead of helping him, instead of boosting him, the Blue team stabbed him in the front, in the back, in the eye balls, etc.

You mean it's the democrat's fault that 20 somethings didn't go vote? I liked Bernie, I voted for him, but the demographic he targeted apparently preferred swiping through tik tok to improving their world so he learned a hard lesson a second time.

Looks like someone fell for the media narrative.

Young people voted in record numbers for Bernie.

And his demographic was everyone - the elderly had the most to gain in many ways.
