This. Racism, bigotry, homophobia, xenophobia, etc will never go away, but hopefully it will go back to being something that is shunned instead of promoted

I don't listen to my favorite artist much at all. I've listened to them a lot in my life, and i love their songs every time one comes up randomly, but I've heard all their songs so many times in my life that i almost never purposely play them

I don't see anything on that page that talks about gen z men. And the full report is paywalled. Can you copy paste the lines that you're thinking of?

"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled"

After someone has been convinced of something, it's very hard to convince them that they were wrong because now their ego is on the line. And the longer amount of time they've believed what Trump says then the harder it will be to convince them that he's a lying con man, because they'd have to admit to themselves and their community that they were massively conned. And they would to some degree have to even question whether their entire worldview is wrong.

Questioning your own ideas and trying to determine if you've been wrong about something takes a lot of openness maturity and emotional intelligence, which are things conservatives statistically are not good at

There is zero chance that Trump chooses to step aside. Literally zero.

The data shows this race is 50-50. Don't listen to opinions or even single poll results.

We need to do more than just vote, we need to volunteer, donate, and encourage friends and family to go vote for Harris

Yeah the sticker sentence especially. That's essentially the same as saying that the kid got the shot. HIPAA doesn't say "it's ok to reveal private health information as long as you do it in a wink-wink manner." Revealing personally identifiable health information is forbidden no matter how you do it.
