Everybody is still quiet about the election.

Posted on 01/09/2021 12:34:06 AM PST by DallasBiff

I overhear many conversations in my shuttle bus from the DFW airport and nobody is commenting about the election or what happened in DC.

I’d imagine some are terrified at the Stalinazi-Satanist seizure of the government. They should be. What could never happen here just happened.

Most people aren't nearly as invested in politics as people who post on political forums are.

Agreed. Most people have no idea what is going on around them let alone what is happening in a city called DC a thousand miles away from them.

Back in 2008, blacks and whites were giddy about Obama, and I would hear it.

Now, it is political silence amongst the passengers.

Even people who are dumb and support Biden know in their bones it was stolen.

Just like in Soviet Russia, people need to now whisper about their political opinions in public unless their opinions are the accepted beliefs. In Dallas, you have a lot of people who do not agree with the accepted thoughts. It is wise, therefore, to keep quiet in public.

Media and the lefties syncophants are saturating the air and internet with 24/7 propaganda and Trump hate, trying to shame Trump supporters.

But the people aren’t buying it. Trump approval is going UP.

that’s interesting.

You’ve got a real good time series sample of what people are interested in, and also willing to discuss.

I think everyone knows that the differences now are so large that it is better not to open the can of worms.

I occasionally hear two fellows at the bus stop spew forth all the media talking points. I can almost imagine Xi Jinping with his hand up their ass working their jaw. I figure teaching them the errors of their ways would only bring blowback to me.

That’s a great point. It’s how we get so many dumb asses, boot lickers and Karens.

Exactly. They don't care about politics, the candidates, or the issues except on Election Day and then they vote because they believe it's their civic duty to do so.

A lot of people are scared now. Afraid to say anything out loud. Never know who is listening. Could get you assaulted.

Also, there’s a campaign ongoing to target people who attended the rally Wed to get them fired etc.

“A source close to the polling firm tells Newsmax that the rolling survey saw Trump’s approval soar to 51% on Thursday night.”

if so, then FakeNewsMSM isn’t as influential as they think they are, which we’ve known for the past four years.

bury the MSM.

The media, hyperpartisan social media loudmouths and politicians care 1,000x more than regular people.

It's basically the same pile-on we saw in October 2016 with the Access Hollywood tape.

This is true, at least in my small part of the country. People heard Biden won (from November), and that's that. They go about their lives (jobs, families, appointments) and don't have a second thought about it. They don't even know there was any to-do about fraud. To them, it was just like every other election.

They may 'wake up' one day and wonder, "wait, why is Trump still President?"

Yep.

Likewise smart to not communicate with your communist leaders in government. They have minions. Armed minions.
