Men see their female peers get favorable treatment for their ~13 years of public education and then get told that they are actually privileged because a CEO they never heard of makes 40 million dollars a year or some actor makes more money than an actress and wonder why that has anything to do with them. Also liberalism is the dominant ideology of their (overwhelmingly female) teachers and kids like to rebel.
One of the things they brought up too is that Vance and Trump went to where the boys are. They said something while the left sat in Stony silence at best and outright hostility at worst.
It's still so fricking funny to me that she rejected Rogan when he invited her on, then later when it was clear she was getting trounced she tried to make amends but couldn't even be bothered to actually go on, like he probably would have had her on anyways after she rejected him but she couldn't even be bothered to do the normal 3-hour "interview".

It gets better. So the Harris campaign read some transcripts and decided that they didn't want to give him a platform. Joe Rogan, the biggest podcaster. They didn't want to give him a platform. By doing that they just ceded him to the right.
The Trump interview on Rogan getting like 50 million views on YouTube alone while Kamala's interview on Call Her Daddy was like sub 1 million was so fricking funny.

Yeah it's insane. One of the things Richard mentioned in the interview is that Dems don't go into enemy territory, with the exception of Booty Judge. I'm not saying going on Rogan would have changed the outcome, but it's emblematic of the Dems fading relevance. I keep hearing on this, but they still think it's 2012. They're 25 and still cool taste makers working for BuzzFeed. Impact memes are relevant, and getting on the daily show and SNL is still a big deal. But in reality they're pushing 40, uncool, unhappy wine aunts, hoping against hope they the next bumble date will go well. It won't. And podcasts and relatability is more important than ever
I will literally never forgive zoomers for cursing us with the r-slurred "here's a second video of someone playing a mobile game below the actual video" trend.

Hopefully soon. But relatability goes all the way back to Nixon/Kennedy in 1960. Heck part of the reason Clinton beat Bush in 1992 was because he was seen as more relatable. I remember Republicans seething that Obama beat Romney because people would rather have a beer with Obama.

It's outright crazy. She was a nobody then too. She dropped out before Iowa. She was picked to appease the progressive flank of the party. I know it's a chud talking point, but she was a DEI hire, especially during the summer of love.
I sometimes felt like I was going crazy w/ people telling me she's not a DEI hire when Biden was literally like "imma pick a black woman to be my VP" and then picked her, somebody nobody liked, but she was a "black" woman (yeah yeah indian whatever don't care).

The arguments I heard wasn't so much she wasn't DEI hire, but that all VP picks are "DEI hires" by nature - candidates pick someone from the other wing of a party to appease them, or from specific state/region they need to do better in.

Ironic because Harris is basically a nobody rn and I really doubt her political career is ever gonna recover.
