Democrats have blown millions of dollars on efforts to appeal to “American Men,” who turned to President Donald Trump in droves on election day, in the hopes of winning back the working class, according to a report.
Democrats have spent $20 million on their efforts, with donors and strategists holing up in luxury hotel rooms brainstorming how to convince working-class men to return to the party, according to a New York Times report.
The plan, code-named SAM, or “Speaking with American Men: A Strategic Plan,” promises to use the funds to “study the syntax, language and content that gains attention and virality in these spaces,” according to the report.
As the Times described it, the reports “can read like anthropological studies of people from faraway places.”
The effort also recommends Democrats buy advertisements in video games, among other things, the Times reported.

“Above all, we must shift from a moralizing tone,” the plan urges.
Democrats have “lost credibility by being seen as alien on cultural issues,” McCrary added.
"we gotta get more racist"
The issue isn't that the democrats are "alien on cultural issues".
The issue is that the cultural issues are elevated above the issues of general everyday survival facing the majority of people. Bernie never really opposed any of the cultural or identity issues of the left, he even vocally supported them, but he remained widely popular because he prioritised the issues of everyday survival that all working people have.
You don't become alien by caring about cultural or identity things. You become alien by behaving like there is nothing else at all of any importance or value besides those things. It makes you look like an out of touch sheltered bourgeois alien from another planet that knows nothing of struggle faced by the average person every day.
well fixing the everyday issues is a nonstarter so clearly the only thing to do is find the right mix of racist dogwhistles
