politics

I look at this post and I think two things:
1) Liberals and/or leftists should be doing introspection about why hip looking guys have shifted right.
2) Maybe, like people of color voting Trump, this is actually just a healthy sign of the country no longer being as aesthetically or culturally polarized (i.e., looking hip is no longer a shorthand for particular politics).
3) Did Covid break the country -- or did policies pushed to hard by the left break it? I tend to think it's a mix of both, with the right stoking ignorance and paranoia in response to the latter.

The hatred of Bernie Bros by the DNC is where it all started. 

"In those days, the fault line was obvious and neat: Bernie was a man, Clinton a woman. She would be the first woman president. The only party members who might wish to deny her that historic moment, and back Sanders instead, had to be misogynist men. They were supposedly venting their anti-women grudge against Clinton, who in turn was presented to women as a symbol of their oppression by men.

And so was born a meme: the “Bernie Bros”. It rapidly became shorthand for suggesting – contrary to all evidence – that Sanders’ candidacy appealed chiefly to angry, entitled white men."

From what I've seen from the clips the right can fucking keep those specific ones lmfao

Oh ya. Some can 100% stay. But there's a good number that left Sanders to Trump.

Alao that's a Sam Sedar event. I feel more people who know who he is are going to dress/look like that.
