    Ugh I think you guys just are so isolated in your bubble

    Oh really? Did the fact that you were replying on Lefty [email protected] clue you in?

    You can’t just go „ohwowoowa they have different views than me, how can they?”

    Actually you can, if it’s literally a community dedicated to “undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology”.

    But I agree with you, they don’t vote on politics, they vote for the party they are told represent their “traditional life” and “traditional values”, probably religious too. In other words, without thinking for themselves and just taking the word of their community / religious leaders, who are in a sunk cost fallacy not to admit they’ve been wrong to the people who’ve been looking up to them. This is also the worst possible way to vote in a democracy, and if the majority of people do so, it will not be a democracy for much longer.
