You win elections by persuading people who don't already agree with you. You make voters feel safe voting for you

Well you're failing to do that. I don't feel safe voting for you and you are not persuading me.

But for some unknown reason the only ones who need gentle coaxing and careful persuasion are the chuds. Don't bother persuading anyone else just yell at em.

How about we try yelling at the chuds this time and gently persuading the leftists...

Liberals could never

I think in the liberal worldview leftists fall under the umbrella of people who are already supposed to agree with liberals. We're supposed to fall in line and vote for democrats by default. It's why they blame leftists every time their candidate loses. We're apparently betraying them somehow.

I mean ya definitely they think that but they're wrong. And of course we've told them they're wrong as in we've said (for instance "onionperson" in the above tweets indicates this) we don't agree with you. But yet they refuse to try to convince leftist who explicitly don't agree with them and instead try to convince chuds who also explicitly don't agree with them.

Of course we know why they do this and it's because generally they don't actually disagree all that much with the chuds and also, as you state, they feel owed the lefts support. They insist it's because they don't disagree all that much with the leftists so what's there to convince. But when we tell them actually no we don't agree they get so fuckin mad.

I'm just pointing out with my original comment that it is illogical. Of course that won't convince any lib...

But it's still satisfying for me to shake my head and go "haha but your logic breaks down under my vast intellect" because I'm a simple girl who wishes people would like think about what they're saying for ~100ms.
