How come they always color the places that don't have anybody there as red?
Why can't blue take it?
It’s the same reason all around the world: India, China, Australia, Venezuela, Romania, Kenya: Hicks.
Hicks are everywhere. And they vote for regressive authoritarians for any number of reasons, most of them wrong.
Fear... Humans have an evolutionary and natural fear of the unknown... If you live way out in the middle of nowhere, pretty much everything outside your tiny bubble is unknown, and therefore scary. Then assholes come in and use that fear to their advantage. "Everything you're afraid of IS horrible and out to get you! Vote for me and I'll protect you"
I love classism
Oh there you go bringing class into it again
Again?
They are probably coloring whole counties, where the second map just makes a dot for each country proportional to population.
Blue has abandoned anything outside cities. Their outreach is basically move to a city, which unsurprisingly isn't popular there.
Question: do you think the MAJORITY of people should decide how they're governed?
And that's aside from the obvious fact that red team is currently pushing a convicted felon seditious child raping traitor as their defacto king?
