    Progressive Activists are half as likely as the average Democrat to prioritize the economy and twice as likely to prioritize climate change.

    Thanks propaganda. Climate change is an existential threat to the entire world.

      That’s not propaganda, as much as it is the reality of human nature. When climate activists (with whom i am in violent agreement) stop letting utter pricks represent them everywhere, they might come closer to getting more people as allies. Strange, i know.

          Keep flogging the voters until morale improves, buddy. I’m sure it will stop failing for you soon.

    Americans overwhelmingly—but, it turns out, mistakenly—believe that Democrats care more about advancing progressive social issues than widely shared economic ones.

    Yeah. They don’t care about advancing any progressive issues at all.

    Seems fairly consistent with the messages coming from both campaigns. Harris ran on abortion and not inflation or promises of large scale economic change, while portraying Trump (correctly) as a threat to democracy. Trump ran on immigration and inflation, and portrayed Democrats as radical far left ideologues that are hell bent on turning your kids trans and your frogs gay or something.

    The Atlantic is like the newspaper version of everything wrong with Democratic Party.
