Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I don’t really know if it would be a blowout but a close win is likely for either.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 19 points 5 months ago

It's going to depend on how much open support for genocide, crashing economy, and failed proxy war in Ukraine will alienate people.

I was reading this thread and like “damn, lemmy really turning a corner, proud of y’all mfs” then I realized its a hexbear thread lol

idk about blowout (who knows with electoral college) but vote share will be really close at least.

I think Biden eeks out a win just barely.

I can't see how myself. The blue no matter who base isn't sufficient to get him across the line, and he's basically alienated everyone else at this point. Meanwhile, Trump's base is only becoming more galvanized by the day.

Dems have been outperforming expectations in every election since the Dobbs decision.

Trump's base is only becoming more galvanized by the day

Yeah but he's not adding to the base. It's just the same knuckle draggers who believe every L they take makes them stronger

Dems aren't adding to their base either, especially with the economy in the gutter, open support for genocide, and the failed proxy war in Ukraine. All the polling shows that dems are losing support across the board.

As I mentioned, the Dobbs decision has in fact galvanized and added to the Dem base. Yes, this is tempered by the dozens of reasons they're horrible but it remains a factor.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Good news is that we don't have to wait too long to find out what actually happens.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

time flies when you don't actually give a shit
