Politics Observation 48 hours before election day

Is it just me or others have notice the trend that all the social media (including redditt), and all the tv station there is such a big liberal presence and supporting the liberals, but when talking/overhearing conversation in coffee shops, parks, workplaces etc its overwhelming the support for the conservatives.

Feels like there is two reality around me, one that lives in my cell phone screen and the other out and about.

Obama was centre right… but yes, he is a minority, and generally they’re left leaning. Obama had to be a peacekeeper, being black didn’t help, being left would make it worse. Biden was centre left.

Your perception of the political spectrum is completely and utterly fucked.

Buddy, stop taking things personally, it makes things emotional/irrational.

I remember obamacare being amazing. I remember drone strikes being normalized. When I try to remember more, I start taking things personally. It makes things irrational. I should take me own advice.

In what way did I take anything personally?

Obamacare fucking sucked. You fell for propaganda and a cult of personality.
