For sure, but if you tell that kid to just fall in line because you know better, you’re going to get an even more obstructive petulant response to your request. You have to meet people as individuals and let them in on the vision if you want them to be invested in it. Most of the messaging I saw however, was people taking any and all opportunity to display their superiority to anyone that doesn’t immediately fit into the plan

We're talking about voters not kids, and if you think the message was, "Just fall in line because I know better," you weren't paying attention. The Harris campaign bent over backwards to warn people about the dangers of an impending Trump dictatorship. Some people just didn't listen, or they can't see significant differences between the Harris and Trump. I can't even engage with any of that, because to me it's as stupid as insisting the Earth is flat. Whatever, we are where we are.
