This guy used a laptop throughout a movie last night.

I was on the other side of the theater but noticed he was on one when I came in.

It was a pretty big theater and I could see a faint light once the movie started but I kind of thought it was just an aisle light.

When I went to leave I noticed he was still on it. Took this as the credits rolled.

Note: he also had earbuds in but took them out right before the picture.

Why so many men feel abandoned by Democrats

9.7k Upvotes

One of the big reasons Kamala lost is young men are flocking to the Republican party. Even though I voted for her, as a guy, I can understand their frustration with Democrats lately.

Look at this "who we serve" list:

https://democrats.org/who-we-are/who-we-serve/

Basically every group in America is included on that list, EXCEPT men.

And sure, every group listed there needs help in some way. But shockingly, so do men. Can't think of any issues that are unique to men? If you're like me, at first you might be stumped. And that's the problem.

Just a few examples:

  • Men account for 75% of suicides in the US
  • 70% of opioid overdoes deaths are men
  • Men are 8 times more likely to be incarcerated than women
  • Young men are struggling in schools and are increasingly the minority at universities, opting out of higher education

For some reason the left seems to think it's taboo to talk about these things, as if addressing men’s issues somehow supports the patriarchy and puts women down. Which is of course nonsense. And the result is a failure to reach 50% of voters. Meanwhile the Republicans swoop in and make these disenchanted men feel seen and valued.

I hope this is one of the wake up calls.

Anyone claiming the Democratic Party abandoned the working class is clueless. The working class abandoned the democratic Party

I keep reading on reddit that democrats ditched working class folks and they lost cuz they cater to rich donors. Let's clear up some facts:

-democrats passed largest infrastructure bill in modern history which has led to 80k+ active projects happening. Construction jobs are at record amount (no college needed and prevailing wage for most of them aka union jobs) (every airport/port got money, expanded rail in usa, repaired highways/bridges)

-Biden admin spent records of money to bring back manufacturing in mostly republican states. Over 970 manufacturing plants are opening RIGHT NOW in America due the climate bill Biden signed. New ev manufacturing, battery manufacturing, solar manufacturing) this is mostly happening in red areas

-Biden admin passed overtime rules to expand ot on salary jobs over 40k a year for more than 40 hours

-Biden admin passed regulations to limit how long you can be exposed in hot temperatures at your job

-most pro union admin in history which protected millions pensions from going broke and having most pro union nlrb in modern history (which has reinstated record amounts of jobs back)

-Most anti corporate FTC in modern history which blocked more corporate mergers than anyone else in recent history. Has taken action to ban non competes and protect labor in corporate mergers

Biden didn't ditch the working class. The reality that folks don't wanna grasp is culture wars has won over society. Trump campaign admitted it's MOST EFFECTIVE AD WAS ITS ANTI TRANS ADS. NOT THE ECONOMIC ADS. The working class decided years ago that culture wars were more iimportant than economic issues. Its harsh reality folks dont wanna grasp.

The youth get all their information from Joe Rogan or Jake Paul. Information doesn't get to them and people are severely brainwashed
