    We didn’t say they were stupid, we said wilfully ignorant, which they are quite literally being. Women aren’t doing the same thing, so it’s clear there are ways around it that men aren’t using.

      Or, that the psyop techniques researched a decade ago are just much more effective on men… </tinfoilhat>

        I think it’s likely that we’re just so used to being catered to, that as soon as we aren’t, we start to throw tantrums and demand to be the centre of attention again. Like these numbers aren’t just bad, they’re terminal: Boomers are less conservative than men 35 and under.

        We’re fucked if we stay on this path. Why would the Cons care to actually do what they promised to if half of all men will vote for them no-matter what they do?
