This is prime range for trains.
I live near Seattle and nextdoor is filled with people who live less than an hour away that are absolutely convinced we’re all dodging bullets daily in the city. You show them data that not only is the city safer than ever but red states in general are more dangerous, they respond with extreme skepticism and outright denial of facts. Heard “there’s no crimes if you don’t report them” way too much, like people aren’t reporting murders.
A lot of these guys think there’s loads and loads of centrist voters who the DNC can sway with a more moderate candidate. It’s failed to work repeatedly because most “independent centrists” are just racist ass Republicans who don’t want their families to know they’re pieces of shit. If you’re not anti GOP at this point, you’re a lost cause afaic.
The hype a candidate like AOC could muster with younger generations is what they should be aiming for, but they don’t donate or vote in primaries so they’ll be ignored and won’t turn out, again.
