    This article seems to make sense.


    WHY YOUNG WHITE MEN ARE ABANDONING THE DEMOCRATS

    But while the Democrats may be uninspiring to millennials as a whole, the party is actively alienating young, white men. Today’s identity politics is impossible for millennials to avoid, whether they are confronted with it on campus or through clickbait comment pieces. In the identitarian worldview, ‘white men’ are responsible for all the world’s woes – the phrases ‘white people’ and ‘white men’ are practically shorthand for evil. Listicles reveal the ‘37 things white people need to stop ruining in 2018’, magazines declare that ‘white men must be stopped’, while even respectable outlets like the Washington Post ask ‘why can’t we hate white men?’.

    But rather than reject the divisive politics of identity, the Democratic establishment and its cheerleaders have embraced it. During the election, Hillary Clinton namechecked and explicitly targeted a number of demographic groups. At the same time, her team told the media they were confident they could win without the support of white men. Many commentators agreed. ‘Hillary Clinton doesn’t need white men’, insisted the Washington Post – supposedly because they make up a declining share of the electorate and can therefore be ignored. Of course, we all know what the result was – white voters were crucial to Trump’s election upset. Nevertheless, liberal commentators are still urging the Democrats to ‘get over’ white working-class voters in the upcoming midterms. They are surplus to electoral requirements, outsiders to the ‘progressive coalition… in all its multicultural, multiracial splendour’, according to one writer.


    I think this trend will be even more pronounced among Generation Z. When you've been told your whole life that you are the problem, as Gen Z white males have been told, there might be a little resentment and pushback. This wasn't inevitable, and in fact is still reversible if the Democrats would stop their hatefest on white men. However, they are going more and more in the crazy direction so coming to their senses seem unlikely.

    I thought it was just 30, 40 ,50, 60, 70, and 80 year old white men who were abandoning the Democrat party. This...is SHOCKING news... Idk what to think... could be the END .of the old Flag waving Democrat party... NO...they would never abandon the American Flag would they?

    Well the young black males... they will.. OH WAIT... THEY ARE LEAVING TOO... Holy $%^... Oh well.. there are still Hispanics... MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of illegal immigrants.. maybe if they can just get across the border, and can immediately be registered, as Democrats, the Democrat party can take back the house and senate in 2018.

    What I find strange is that too many men are still Democrat. What do Democrats have to do to shoo away remaining men?

    I think the next ploy is to make them date transexuals.

    I left the party in 2013. Greatest thing I'd ever done. Their proclamations of multculturalism and pluralism are lies. Empty words of propaganda, while their louder chorus cries of political-social division threaten to unravel the United States. They're a greater threat to America, than Donald Trump.

    That's what they were saying in the 1970's also, and?

    Back in the 70's, you could say things in your little enclaves and it'd be limited to your enclaves. Today, these words of hatred spread throughout the internet and you ever heard of a confirmation bias?

    https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/science-choice/201504/what-is-confirmation-bias

    The left looked for evidence that there are evil whitey's, and lo and behold, they got tired of it and became just as the Left wished. Great job.

    Dont forget that many black men and women are leaving the democrat party too. They realized that democrats were only giving them lip service around election time to mine their votes. Then the democrats did NOTHING for them.

    Good show, I left the GOP in 1980. I stayed away from Democrats too. I am a registered Independent. The tough part is now I have to think for myself.

    Cute. Long but cute. It shows me that I am correct in my assertion that the RW will be painfully sucker punched in the mid term elections. All this, touchy feely, desperate hope and gut instinct will destroy the RW and they won't even know what happened. For certain, they will define it wrong because none of will fit the reality of their world of stubborn belief and knowing.

    Watch. It's hypnotic to see a train wreck.

    You left the GOP in 1980?(I'm a 92 birth). I'm also an independent. Did Nixon fallout make you lose faith with the GOP? Just curious about what led to your decision.

    And?

    Only idiots vote political party. Intelligent people vote for the candidate.

    The Dems have become feckless and the Republicans worship a couple of dickheads in Putin and Trump.

    Register independent. Vote the candidate, not the party.

    Because young white men supporting the Democratic Party is politically suicidal. The Democratic Party now OPENLY often declares it is WHITE MALE who are the root of all evil, automatically are the beneficiaries of racism, and their days of political power must be eliminated, cheering overall the demise of white people in general. What future is their in the Democratic Party for young white males? NONE as they ARE OFFICIALLY THE ENEMY!

    Is this an example of thinking for yourself?

    If so, it just goes to show that "thinking for oneself" is almost always a bad idea.

    Hell no. I stated on these boards many times BEFORE the election that I thought both Clinton and Trump were toxic candidates- and I have been proven right.

    No, I'm afraid blaming Trump for other people's toxic behavior isn't a logical conclusion.

    I disagree. You are much better voting for the party whose platform best represents your interests. You are more likely to get what you want if your party wins.

    If what you want are people who represent a party and not a country - sure.
    And as we've seen with the GOP, they shifted from the family values party to the kiss Putin's ass party in three seconds - except
    the few with a bit of backbone. Vote the person - not the party.

    It would appear that most males remaining Democrats are either low testosterone beta male type Whites who do genuinely despise their own race -- as they have been conditioned so to do -- or they are minority group males who are NOT considering that eventually the Dem Party just might turn on them as well.

    Over 50% of the Democratic party’s revenue comes from a wealthy and well connected group that will insist that the hatred against whitey continues. No getting off this train now.

    Your team won’t be winning because of anything other than demographic replacement of Americans with 3rd worlders.
