Democratic vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz is getting a more positive public reception than his Republican counterpart: More Americans see Walz favorably than unfavorably, contrary to JD Vance, and more approve of Walz’s selection for the nation’s No. 2 job, according to new ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll.
Thirty-nine percent in the poll have a favorable impression of Walz as a person, while 30% see him unfavorably. That compares with an underwater favorable-unfavorable rating for Vance, 32%-42%.
Conservatives value conformity, which is why ‘weird’ works so well to insult them.
It’s only insulting because they believe it is; call most leftists weird and they’ll probably say something like “Yeah I’m weird, fuck normal.”
You know that’s a great point! Conformity essential to being with the in-group of conservatives. That shifts my view substantially on this.
