Blue cities in red states have high crime—St. Louis, Atlanta, New Orleans, etc. Red state suburbs and rural areas are safe.

- labrador 4y agoI read media from the left and the right. That's how I understand the dog whistles from both sides. I'm retired so I have a lot of free time. Look up Marc Elias. I'm an Independent but I'm considering the Forward Party https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Elias https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Elias
- eldritch_4ier 4y agoJust letting you know that "there's way more crime in blue cities than red cities" to "I want to disenfranchise millions of voters" is an incredible leap. The more likely conclusion they're drawing is "Democratic policy is a failure and here's the evidence". Most people are normal. Most people aren't radicals trying to remove the right to vote of millions of people - yes even Trump supporters don't want people in cities to lose the right to vote, they just think they are stupid / voting for bad policy.
- labrador 4y agoIt's not about taking away the right of everyone in the city to vote. That's absurd. It's about subtly restricting the right to vote by targeting those in cities. For example, you might restore the rights for felons to vote in a state, but not those whose crimes involved a hand gun, which would target city dwellers. That sort of thing. I'm not invested in it enough to go deep into it like Marc Elias and crew, but I get the idea.

- labrador 4y agoMaybe you don't pay attention enough
- stametseater 4y agoMaybe you don't know him and you're just making up shit about him because you've got a beef with what other people, not him, said.
- labrador 4y agoI don't know him. He implied he wasn't aware of the things I said. I speculated that perhaps if he paid more attention and took a deeper look he would see the truth of what I said. What part of this is having a beef with other people? What part is making up shit about him?
- stametseater 4y agoYou said that he was dog whistling, implying you have some knowledge of his intent which is not evidenced in his words, which he himself is unaware of. And now that you've erased my doubt that perhaps you do know him, I can safely conclude that you were making shit up about him.
- labrador 4y agoI thought you were talking about Georgelemental, sorry. I'm talking about the genre of "Democrat big cities are hell holes"in right wing media. Maybe you don't read much so don't see them repeated over and over. Many people have stopped reading in this day and age
- rootusrootus 4y agoIn other words, with higher density comes more crime. Blue and red have zero to do with it.
- NDizzle 4y agoAre there more blues or reds in cities? I'm not talking about crips or bloods...
