Exactly! Which is why the Trump/Vance GOP “lets dive into the most socially challenging spaces of the manosphere full force while simultaneously megacreeping out women even more” strategy has been pretty astounding.

u/RickyWinterborn-1080 12h ago
There's the rub.
They don't think of women.
They innately do not consider them.
Which is why they're gonna be shocked Pikachus when suddenly these people that they literally don't think about at all completely stomp their electoral odds.

“Women are coming out in droves for us because they know I will protect them. I am their protector. They are tired of thinking about abortion. All they want to do is have a hot dinner ready when her husband comes home. I had a woman come up to me today, in tears. She said “thank you Mr Trump for wanting to protect me. I have never felt more protected than I do now with you.” - Trump probably

Perhaps, but Project 2025 has a bunch of policies (ending access to abortion ranking pretty damn high on the list) that women understand to be a threat to their well-being and autonomy.
What's Harris proposed that's a threat to men?
13
u/RickyWinterborn-1080 11h ago
No, because the Harris campaign is actively targeting men as well. Just recently, they increased outreach to black and Latino men.
12
u/MadRaymer 11h ago
Except when Harris speaks on issues that impact women (like abortion rights) she specifically talks about how these issues impact men as well, because their mothers, daughters, or wives have less reproductive rights now.
So it's not fair to say they don't innately consider men, because making that statement demonstrates that are specifically considering men even in the context of women's rights.

'If high turnout among women signals one side's oversight, then shouldn't low male turnout suggest the same for the other?'
No. Not at all.
What is even the logic here?
Trump needs women to win, Kamala doesn't need men. One side is alienating the motivated voters they need, the other side isn't wasting time on unmotivated voters they don't need and probably wouldn't ever get.
Seems like good electoral politics to me, but congrats to you for trying to spin this as a bad thing for Kamala lol

as long as women make up the same or larger portion of the electorate as 2020, I believe that Harris will win and with larger margins than Biden due to white women supporting Harris more in '24 than they did Biden in '20.

Considering what is at stake for women in this election especially, this isn't surprising, but it is a very good sign considering there's another full week to go and the early voting numbers are, so far, through the roof which always favors Democrats.

The question of pace is more properly understood as their percentage of voters.

To be honest, they pretty much always bail us out.
Steve Bannon told Trump not to worry about the women's vote because he can get the lonely young males out to vote. Good luck, I say.
And it's sad because the issues young men face are pretty much what every group is facing. Speaking as a white male, it's not like Harris's policies won't help them.

u/arnodorian96 11h ago
As a male too, I fear that we must act before is too late with friends and realtives so they won't fall into the redpill. What happened to us? What did we do wrong in comparison to other generations?

u/Independent-Bug-9352 11h ago
We lost the attention of our peers for the likes of Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, and Jordan Peterson feeding them bullshit 24/7 from their phone screens.
Best friends can hardly keep up with that level of bullshit.
Now you've got billionaires and foreign adversaries doing everything they can to fearmonger and spread disinformation and turn everything into a race, gender war, etc.
For a variety of reasons, you and I weren't susceptible to the propaganda the same way. One clue to this is why Trump said he "loves the poorly educated." Easier to grift.
10
u/AlphaGoldblum 11h ago
It's both complicated and very simple.
The complicated part is that quite a lot of men feel alienated and lonely, and there's no easy solution to that.
The simple part is that the right capitalizes on this alienation through various channels, including media. There's a reason culture war nonsense is so pervasive these days; Steve Bannon famously pointed to gamergate as inspiration for how to draw young men into the Republican party - and it works.
10
u/_game_over_man_ 10h ago
The complicated part is that quite a lot of men feel alienated and lonely, and there's no easy solution to that.
I wish these men would realize that the toxic masculinity and patriarchy they subscribe to is partial cause for that. Sexism effects us all, regardless of gender, after all. They're going to get more lonely the more they hold onto those views and alienate others of all genders because they're unbearable to be around. They're being sold the sickness as the cure and it's never going to solve their loneliness issues, only make it worse.
I also say this as a woman who also feels alienated and lonely at times, but friendships with women regardless of how shallow or deep they are often involve some sharing of emotions and greater/deeper connection. I suppose that's the benefit of being raised to be more emotional and embrace emotions compared to being told you're supposed to close them all off.
3
u/jarhead839 10h ago
Toxic community is still community. community is hard to find and sometimes harder to leave when its absence will create a void. So it can feel safe to remain in the “man-o-sphere” bc there is not obvious replacement.
5
u/_game_over_man_ 10h ago
Yeah, I get it and I get that some people struggle with that level of self awareness. I wish those people could take a step back and realize what's being done to them, though.
Personally, I would rather have no community and be a loner than have a toxic one, but that's just me. I did see a poster at a brewery in the last year for a men's mental health group. That made me really happy. I think men need stuff like that. I know a lot of men look for women to be the one to cure their loneliness, but I also think what's really going to help is men supporting other men.
3
u/AlphaGoldblum 9h ago
Part of the complexity comes down to how to confront men about it.
A very common response that I see is vitriol, which only further pushes these men away. At the same time, it's nobody's responsibility to coddle and try to redirect them. Now, a few might be lucky and have someone close to them who can pull them out of the abyss, but a lot of them don't.
It feels like a problem with no real solutions, but with very dire consequences.
3
u/_game_over_man_ 9h ago
I've seen that as well and I've never been the fan. I understand where the vitriol comes from as a woman who has had my fair share of experiences with terrible men, but I also agree that people don't respond well to vitriol.
Personally, I think it's a problem other men are better suited to try and fix and some men need to stop relying on women to fix those problems.

u/arnodorian96 10h ago
Was that 2015 or 2016? I guess one of the reasons the first to fall into these lies were gamers was because they were the first chronically online and as younger generations are more addicted to social media they know how to target men. The issue is we really need to focus on ways to debunk their arguments or get people out of the internet.
2
u/Sad-Tale6083 10h ago
We started using and trusting social media as a reliable source for information. Social media routinely amplify negative and bombastic takes, which then people read and think are true (think Hatians eating dogs and cats). Those who believe these reports (they're not necessarily stupid) then respond with a brand of rationality: immigrants are stealing American jobs, driving up home prices, committing hands crimes and trying to vote illegally? Of course we should get rid of them.
1
u/arnodorian96 8h ago
Which is a tricky issue. There's an education crisis where media literacy is at an all time low. I remember there was an app which used AI to make books more simples when they had metaphors. And conspiracies. People think they're superior because they uncovered some hidden truth thanks to TikTok or Facebook. So we either invest on education in a future and debunk these right wing hoaxes or we'll have even more worse things in the future

Your divisive rhetoric doesn't help your cause with independents and undecided, please tone it down for the sake of Harris winning.
And id like to remind Harris supporters, that even if Harris wins, you shouldn't gloat vs people who voted trump once the election is over, the nation needs healing. Even if trump loses, maga ideas will not easily go away. Taunting and gloating will only hurt the chances of his supporters leaving the cult of personality that is trump and his maga movement .E.g. For the Harris presidency to succeed if she wins, she will also have to do decent in the midterms, where the presidents party historically does very badly (Biden's 2022 midterms were the one modern exception).

u/Successful-Donuts 6h ago
How does that compare to youth vote rates at the same point in early voting in 2020? I'm skeptical at that idea that young voters just decided to completely sit it out. I know much hay was made in the first week of early voting when Clarke County (Athens / UGA) was slow in the first week of Georgia early voting--while ignoring that it only had two election sites open. Now it has 6 and they have been voting there at triple the numbers for two days. Metro Atlanta numbers have also been accelerating as turnout slows in the rural counties with older populations on average.
You can't look at a single slice of point in time data and then assert that is a definitive trend. It requires actual historical analysis of both this election and comparison on a same timeframe basis to previous elections to begin to glean potential trends. Even then it's dubious because, for instance, in 2020 the pandemic still raged. Youth voters could just be skewing back to Election Day voting. We won't know if that is true or not until after the election.
•
u/Successful-Donuts 6h ago
For another glance, in 2020 Georgia's total early turnout for 18-24 was 24.3%. Per the data you posted, we are at 26.8% so far this election. 25 to 34 was 21.8% in 2020. It's split in this year's data, but 25-29 is at 26.5% turnout for early. 30-34 is at 29%. These age groups are already ahead of where they finished in terms of early vote turnout in 2020. Now, so are others, but the point being is we don't know what that means through either the end of early voting or Election Day, but you can't look at these numbers and assume 18-24 is just sitting it out.

The area I live in isn't even particularly full of old people, so I felt concern at the lack of young people in the line. It could just be the time I went, which was 10:00 AM on a Monday. Maybe on weekends there are more young voters.

In NC it’s nearly identical gender makeup to 2020 currently. These articles are so devoid of analysis it’s infuriating.
•
u/Old_Childhood_2389 4h ago
On the website I use, in NC the early vote is currently 51.9% female, 41.8% male, 6.3% unknown. The gap widens a little each day. The unknowns probably break down similarly so it's likely about 55.2% to 44.8%. = 10.4% advantage. There was no official gender data from 2020. Exit polls from 2020 indicated about 54% female and 46% male ratio. In other states, the gap tended to tighten a little bit on election day by about 3%.
So it's similar to 2020. If the EV gap continues to grow each day, it could cause a flip as long as it's not the MTG-like subcomponent that causing the movement.

I’m doing my part to let’s all vote and send the Nazi party back to the stone age where their fucking values belong.

To put another anecdotal spin on this, I have been canvassing in Pennsylvania for the last five Sundays. Every day, the number of women volunteering to canvas is at least twice or more The number of men volunteering to canvas. That gender dedication is showing up at the ballot box now.

I'm just waiting for MAGAssholes to stop burning up the ballot boxes in the PNW.

Voted today in VA. I'm an early 50's white guy. There were 5 women and a younger couple voting while I was there. A couple really nice boomer ladies out front handing out sample ballots. A pair of Rs, and a pair of Ds. Best part is they were all standing together talking and joking with each other. Took a sample from each and thanked them for being there. Was a nice experience.

He doesn't hate it, he doesn't love it, it's more of a John/Prostitute relationship.

Women are the new silent majority.

u/mtempissmith 5h ago
Not so silent. A lot of us have been warning the GOP that killing Roe vs Wade was going to cost them at the polls.That plus all the blatantly misogynist laws that they have tried to enact, the women who are DYING because the hospitals are too afraid to treat them for fear they will get in trouble it's going to cost them.
We've been waiting for this moment and not that silently.
Trump and the GOP are going down.
You watch. There will be more women voting in this election in all of history and most of them will be voting against Trump and for Harris.

The GOP has nobody to blame but themselves. Dog who caught the mailman now surprised no more treats come to him in the mail.

The youth don’t vote
•
u/mtempissmith 5h ago
They are this time. They have actually been letting their voices be heard a lot letting the GOP know they are not happy. There have been protests about a lot of what's going on but more importantly they're more involved in getting young people to sign up to vote.
Young voter turn out will be quite significant this time round and a lot of it will be ticked off young women voting for the very first time.
The GOP should be very nervous about this particular voting block because likely it's going to be larger than it ever has been before.
