Almost as good as Lichtman’s keys!
100% of americans kids are genociders. Time to firebomb new york.
Trump is still kind of a meme candidate, so I think a lot of it might be that. Kamala is obviously better to someone that knows but she’s also “boring”
Well, at least we’re consistently awful
So close? Sad.
Thanks to the electoral elementary, Trump still wins another term in the principals office.
What kind of f-ed up kid votes for Trump?
This is 90% just a proxy for how their parents will vote.
Its only a very small portion of kids that age who are going to have substantially different views than their parents (not that they don’t exist!)
The people who voted for him in 2016 are raising kids. Once might even call it grooming but that’s a silly word.
The kind whose parents watch media that demonizes the Democrats.
The kind who never knew the world before he got into politics, and the kind who think the things he says are funny memes and want to sow chaos in a poll that doesn’t have any real weight. If they had to be serious, more of them probably would be, but it’s not unusual for kids to goof off and be chaotic when they know their voice doesn’t have direct influence on anything that matters.
What. The. Fuck.
Why does that even exist, why would we want kids involved in politics brought on by a kids show channel? And who the fuck cares about a kids political opinion??
Sure, teens at some point can already have really valid opinions, but I can’t imagine that any kid under 12 has anything political to say otger than parroting what they heard (sadly the case forany adults as well)
And yet their polling numbers get the same results as for the adults.
Does that imply that most adults have a bad understanding of politics and vote by emotions?
Yeah…
It’s been going on for 30 years, dude. Since Linda Ellerby.
Also if they are parroting what they heard it’s an interesting “poll” of what we can expect
Yeah, it is, it’s just that, why are we doing this?
So, now we know why the conservatives are so hell-bent on defunding the education system In America…
It’s for votes!
It’s also why they’re opposed to lead pipe removal. They’ll never admit it, but lead poisoning is a major contributor to why people are stupid enough to vote for them.
48% to Trump is embarrassing. This country is failing our children.
This country is failing a lot of people. The only ones who really benefit are the rich.
The worst part is knowing that they’re (most likely) just listening to the loudest voter in their household even if other opinions manage to exist in their family.
I only remembered my dad talking about Bush or scoffing at this or that “donkey” thing so I thought it was Bush and the elephants I was supposed to like. I know I would have voted as such in something like this because I didn’t know any better at 6-8 years old, although I’m not finding the kids’ age ranges in this mock election. Anyway, I still didn’t know any better in junior high, I remember voting for Bush again in a 7th grade social studies poll on the 2004 elections. I recall the teacher saying even the results amongst one class were usually a pretty accurate reflection of the actual election results, right down to the goob who voted for Nader.
It took me going to college in the purplest damn section of a pretty red state for me to come to terms with what I actually believed and felt about people and politics. Further education was definitely key, and intertwined with that, it opened me up to people. Just talking to people in an environment where you’re all on essentially the same operating level day to day is huge.
My dad kept doing his thing in the small town where everyone knew everyone and somehow managed to sleep with everyone, too. He turned into a Trumper. I did my thing and I admit, it took me a lot of those four years of working on projects and getting pissed about loans together but really just enjoying life with a modestly diverse, pretty tolerant student body (still a lot of white raised-as-protestant types) to undo the damage of a conservatively skewed and Catholic childhood. But I can tell you that by 2014 I was annoyed at myself for not caring about the 2012 election, this first time I could vote. And you can guess I most certainly never even considered supporting Trump or any of the terrible things he represents when he suddenly-to-me showed up.
Would it make any reasonable sense for my dad to go to college at his age? No, probably not. But how do we get people to “simply” live around and be exposed to more people with relatively little prejudice in social status?
Do we just … Idk where I’m going with this I got high but wait just a tick here did I just reason myself into communism fuckityshit
Really shows where the problem lies. Indoctrination. Results not much different than the national poll.
it’s that easy. the children learn what we teach them. think of the world we could make if these kids got taught the right things. purge these conservative fucks already so we can save the world.
Unfortunately kids parrot the hate and political leanings of their parents until they grow older at least
Can confirm. Had a 16 year old work part time with me for a few weeks over the summer. Pretty cool kid, but yeah… Trump came up a couple times and both times he just repeated the bullshit that he’d heard from his parents. Sad shit.
This is why I don’t like mail in voting: People other than the voter can tell the person how to vote. It is just blatantly obvious in this case.
Parents voting or telling the kids how to vote.
Young boys have a hard time seeing sexism or arrogance as bad qualities.
I was an only child raised by a single mother, so I guess I have a relatively unique perspective. However, I’m pretty sure I knew both of those things were negative character traits from as early as I can remember.
The thing is the culture war has seeped into everything and these boys aren’t paying that close attention to politics, for them, it’s team Boys vs. team Girls
I would love to see the overlap of winners vs this poll.
That 48% makes me so fucking sad…
Had some people in a duel enrollment (collage level) class tell me last Friday that they’d vote for trump because “he’s an asshole but I like his policies”
“What policies?”
Don’t let them fool you, they are voting for him because he’s an asshole and they are assholes like them. It’s an epidemic in the US.
So who won the fight? What about at the watercolor level?
Let’s just say it looked like a Jackson Pollock by the end.
Don’t worry, at the collage level they’re just bringing a bunch of pictures together
that’s actually so funny I’m not gonna fix it lol
It’s mostly kids mimicking their parents feelings. Which is not the MOST sad. But still not great.
Hmmm. And what do you think happens when those kids grow up. Let’s connect the dots, eh?
Kids become their own people. It’s anybody’s guess as to what they do.
Yeah, my dad is a Trumper, and he can go fuck himself.
Well, in 4th grade, I would have gone with Bush. I’ve deviated quite far from that.
I don’t know, but I’m sure someone will sell them an assualt rifle with unlimited ammunition.
It’s 48% sad.
I think this is much sadder than just the parents thinking like this. Kids should get to be kids and start their lives unencumbered by their parents’ hatred and bitterness.
Unfortunately kids are born with all the sins our world already bares. We can wish and hope for them to be free of the. But that is not reality. No matter what what’s happening is happening and will affect them. We must be better about giving them that world actively and preparing them as needed to be adults in this world.
And the Dan Schneider feet award goes to…
Watch this be correct and nickelodeon replaces Nate Silver as the new polling god.
Losing candidate gets slimed.
Trump would probably love it if the slime were yellow and less viscous
I’m sure Marc Summers would be willing to slime politicians.
