Frens - what is the mood of the normies you know at the moment? I have been out in the wild only twice since July 13, both times with normies.
DAY ONE: I spent a long day with a vaxxed friend with TDS, who doesn't know anything about my beliefs. Not once did she mention DJT, July 13, or the election. My interpretation (and I am speculating) - she wishes they had succeeded but is too diplomatic to say this out loud.
DAY TWO: I spent another long day with a vaxxed friend who knows where I stand politically, but claims to "not be political." He snapped at me when I mentioned DJT over coffee and, when I described myself as a "Trump woman," proceeded to have a hissy fit. Later in the day I mentioned how I was treated because I was unvaxxed, and had loved ones murdered by the bioweapon. His response? "That's all over now!" (as in nothing to see here).
Both stories are anecdotal, however, it feels to me like the normies have made ZERO PROGRESS in waking up.
Any field reports frens?
Normie here, occasional lurker, in the bluest of blue cities in a blue state. fwiw, yes vaxxed, no TDS (I'm not a fan of the guy, but he doesn't make me froth at the mouth or whatever).
My mood? Pretty good right now -- I think Biden stepping down and Harris stepping up was the right decision (and the polls seem to agree), makes me feel better about Dems' chances in November; Biden had an uphill battle ahead of him. I think Walz is a perfectly adequate VP pick; Shapiro seemed a little too fame-hungry, Kelly a little too stodgy. Walz is like the fun uncle, I'll buy it. That's all he needs to be, anyway.
Thoughts on the near-assassination: decidedly not in favor. Tragedy would just create more tragedy. More chaos on top of chaos. Trump dodged a bullet and the country did too.
Thank you for calling in from normie land! Why can't all normies be as friendly and reasonable as you?
They mostly are -- they just don't make the news, or spread online. Only the loud ones do.
