Good analysis, nathan.

There’s something on a different level that motivates Americans to vote Democrat:

They are aware that they are privileged people—to be here in the U.S., with its freedoms, to have more than enough in terms of material things, etc.—so the Dem vote is a guilt vote.

They think they are helping people less well off than they are, which of course they are not because they are leading them toward communism, in which there will be freedom.

Especially those who don’t bother to go to religious services anymore: Voting Democrat is their “charity.”

will be no freedom

Will put and I think even more perceptive because you are exposed to that class of liberals in Manhattan. I an exposed to a similar sensitivity here in Germany, a sense of guilt for the Holocaust but at least that distortion of voting is dissipating but, alas, in favor of green ideology.
