To the good sport in this video: Please assert your personhood by gathering info and forming a real, well-founded, reasoned opinion of your very own. Reflexively doing the opposite of others is just you being controlled in a different way. I say this as someone who also was raised in ignorance of politics and also has had to deal with my own reflexive opposition to things like being told to do something I was already happily doing. This behavior affects the whole of our lives, not just our political stance, but, in turn, your political stance absolutely affects the lives of others, from the hundreds to the millions. Directly or indirectly, our vote determines what gets funded - what gets maintained, who gets healthcare, who gets to eat... - and it determines how many people's lives our country takes - directly or indirectly. At every level, short term and long, the results determine who lives or dies. Please, please, *_please._* Vote responsibly or abstain. On most things there is no perfect choice, but there are almost always a better or worse one.
Exactly! I saw an old friend a few weeks ago at a mutual friends bday. It was all fun and good, but then she brought up a political thing. We agreed and laughed on the subject (aka F trump) but then she hits me with a "yeah but Im not gonna vote.....the winners already picked so theres no use" I was kinda shook like wtf?! Im like "ok you dont think your votes gonna matter? Well, then, just pretend it does!!" Some people are just so frustrating!
@@jessberch7041 Yup. I have been talking to my friends about this. California alone has 10 propositions on the ballot. I have voted twice so far and some of these propositions can go incredibly tight. We also have some county stuff and the main topic there is homelessness which is incredibly local and affects everyone. So acting as if the presidency is the only thing on the ballot is straight up unbelievable.
Maybe people are undecided because they don't know anything about news and can't be bothered to google anything about any topic. Basically "I dunno, candidate A is a little cuter, I guess?"
Typical for undecided. Don't actually care about the issues because they think both are equally evil. I guess their eyes and ears don't tell them things.
I live in Pennsylvania. The swing voter that this election is all directed toward is amazingly undiscerning. A huge number of voters in general vote entirely on vibes and cultural affinity (hence that thing about wanting to have a beer with Bush). These interminably long election seasons are remarkably policy poor because our horserace coverage has no interest in substantive discussion of any issues at any point. Despite this people can see what's happening in Gaza is fucked even though coverage is so dehumanizing to Arabs and gives no historical context. Therefore like Adam Conover recently pointed out you have the candidates describing fake problems or fake solutions everyone has agreed to pander to based on bipartisan received wisdom. The overlap when it comes to immigration and internal repression and foreign policy and external repression is near total but fiscal policy also aligns a ton. When the only difference is how much you hate immigrants or how much your want women to lack autonomy that doesn't cover most things people care about but we don't understand how anything works or we wouldn't credit the president with how bad inflation is. This was amazing because in the end her vote doesn't matter, and also, she might not vote. I think this says something about how seriously people take politics but also how little difference it is likely to make to anyone's everyday life. The nonvoting plurality is telling us what a sham these parties are. Our political discourse speaks to peoples fears and insecurities but doesn't even help fix any of it hence decreasing legitimacy of all our institutions. No one wants to rock the boat and speak truthfully the way Bernie does. It's too much of a risk so everyone keeps lying and pandering and I want to barf that suburbanites around me will decide this depressingly close election. The fascism we fear is clearly already here or we would care that Biden gas been continuing Trump's border policies.
I want to have a discussion session with her and very politely and kindly ask her questions about what issues she cases about and what issues she is aware have a direct effect on her life, plus get her to make a pros & cons list about all 4 candidates. Mustn't forget to go over the basics of how to find reliable info. She also needs some therapizing on whether sticking with contrarianness, Pathological Defiant Disorder, or whatever else, is worth the repercussions on life-and-death topics.
If she's a PR major, she should have been assigned to watch the debates and then create a positive and a negative ad campaign for both. How are you in a degree to literally spin bullshit on the fly and someone asks you a loaded question and you say "Eh?"
It’s crazy how some people are so privileged their whole life, living in their safe bubble, that they still don’t know how to think even after becoming an adult.
Some people stay in their “safe bubbles” as a way to cope with the complexities of the world. Ignorance can sometimes be a form of self-protection. Instead of criticizing them for it, we could encourage them to explore new ideas and perspectives. We all grow at our own pace, and a little empathy can go a long way in helping someone break out of that bubble
@@JamieBlack-p2i You can't deny that it's still a privilege though. Some people don't get to ignore what's going on around them. Their comment wasn't really a critique, it just pointed that out. If you're voting just be contrarian with no idea what people's policies are AND you're studying them repeatedly for your PR major... I don't know how much more society can do to encourage you to engage in politics at that point.
@@JamieBlack-p2iyour description reminds me of a take I heard from a video about literacy. The thing she said that really stuck with me was: "Ignorance of the world's complexity comes at the cost of being able to operate in it." Illiteracy is surprisingly prevalent. Perfectly competent and independent adults hide their issues instead of engaging with them. Even when adults can technically read and write they may be functionally illiterate or struggle with denser text or critical engagement and experience great shame along with it. It's incredibly hard to increase your literacy as an adult if you feel like you shouldn't have deficiencies at all. People ignorant about politics, government, or democracy usually find it impossible to admit to it sincerely.
Those voters exist in every country. In some places there's even a weird phenomenon going on where immigrants vote for the far right anti-immigration party more than some other demographics.
@@SaHaRaSquad They're easier to scare. The phenomenon is disturbingly common, "kicking the ladder down" and not wanting others of their background to experience upward social mobility. There are some economic elements to it too like immigrant families that have a degree of financial security voting for liberal policies but those in business lean right-wing.
@@SaHaRaSquad imagine not understanding the difference of immigration and illegal immigration and why someone who came here legally would not want someone to come here illegally.
@@kincaid9134imagine thinking those who scream about illegal immigration care about the legality. Vance still tries to paint the Haitian migrants in Springfield as illegal despite that not being the case.
@@grunklesam787until you DM decides you guys are fighting a clone army of psychotic Halflings with Far Realm magic that causes them to explode with psychic energy upon death🚬🥸
When people look at two candidates like Harris and Trump and say they're undecided its like asking which one is worse, a migraine or brain cancer and they have to ponder the answer.
@AnnaChristina-z2w the analogy that I'm making is that because one is clearly so much worse than the other, it shouldn't be a long or difficult decision which sucky option is the better one. Btw Harris would be the migraine, Trump would be the brain cancer if it wasn't obvious
@@SJ-hs8uf1. I fucking deserve better... I'm not even american (german), but I am more informed on American politics than most Americans and I'm at least going to suffer the effects of the worlds economy collapsing when Trump implements Tariffs or the Earth getting 3°C warmer, because Trump withdraws from climate accords again. 2. People are ignorant by design... nobody was voting for Trump if education was doing it's job and there wasn't a bunch of corperately owned propaganda networks.
@@SJ-hs8uf Yes we deserve better, so stop giving dog shit candidates a chance to win, vote for the OBVIOUS better side then the options will shift away from shit candidates. Had Biden won with a landslide Republicans would have thought twice on pushing Trump again.
@@SJ-hs8uf Of course we deserve better. But we're never going to get anything better if so many people just give up because they can't get the "perfect" candidate. Many of us would love an overnight revolution, but it's not happening. If your travel destination is somewhere far away, you go to the airport and get on the plane that takes you to the nearest airport to your destination. Maybe you have to take a few connecting flights, and include bus rides and cars to and from the airport. Unless you're insane or delusional, you don't sit around waiting, refusing to travel until the airlines suddenly decide to invent a new route that flies directly from your house to where you want to go.
6:36 I had the same experience with my mom. I asked my mom if she agrees more with Bernie's views or Biden's and she said Bernie's. So I said "then why are you voting for Biden?" and she said "Because I just can't stand the sound of his voice." I said "Is that seriously a valid reason to not vote for him?" and she said "Well that and that he's Jewish and I don't think America would vote a Jew into the presidency." WE'RE JEWISH! I meen on some level I get that, but can we at least not vote on antisemitic rhetoric in our own home? Insert Hillary into the Biden spots for the same exact conversations I had with her in 2016.
I wonder if that conversation happened in Germany? Y'know, circa... like 1935-ish? "Y'know, i don't agree with anything hitler says, but at least he's not an annoying jew" Is your mom okay?????
People don't get it. They're not undecided.. They're NON-deciding. These people are just trying to sniff out what everyone else is going to do so they can follow suit.
I think it's also clear she is unaware of the issues in play or why votes matter. She said she was not raised with politics, so let's assume that means her family never talked about it and she was in Vermont where most people are liberal so unless she started spouting some MAGA sound bytes, everyone assumed she was similarly liberal and never brought it up. Then she got old enough to vote, she knows nothing about politics, and she thinks you're supposed to pick the more likable person or something. In reality I'm 99% sure she should be voting for Harris. When the best attributes she identified in the right are "does anything to seize the spotlight" and "everyone i know hates them," she's not a Republican. She just doesn't understand how American politics works yet.
bro it's so easy to understand how American politics works I’m A TEENAGER NOT ONLY THAT BUT I'M FUCKING AUSTRALIAN YOU GUYS HAVE THE EASIEST POLITICS EVER THERES LIKE 3 BILLION DIFFERENT SOURCES ON WHAT THE 12TH PRESIDENT HAD FOR LUNCH ON JUNE 13TH BUT IN AUSTRALIA THE BLOODY UNION PARTY DOES F''KING UNION BUSTING AND THE ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT IS FROM A UA-cam CHANNEL WITH 13 SUBS OR FROM A GOVERNMENT DOCUMENT WITH 128 PAGES WORTH OF LEGALESE THAT YOU CAN ONLY FIND BY SEARCHING ABOUT THE INCIDENT WHICH YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT IN THE FIRST PLACE AND DON'T GET ME FUCKING STARTED ON AUSTRALIAN JOURNALISTS LITERALLY ALL OF THEM WORK FOR RUPERT MURDOCH (THE GUY THAT RUNS FOX NEWS) AND JUST SUCK THE GODDAM LIBERAL PARTY (THE SHITTIEST PARTY YOU'VE EVER SEEN) OFF ALL THE TIME AND THE ONLY PROGRESSIVE PARTY IN AUSTRALIA IS SUPER BADLY ORGANISED FOR SOME REASON SO SHUT UP PEOPLE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND AMERICAN POLITICS ARE WILFULLY IGNORANT ON PURPOSE
@@Phyrre56 I mean, thats true, but she isnt ANYTHING, because its not that she doesnt know how American politics work, she has a clear lack of understanding how ANY politics works. I dont htink she understands the first thing about government or why any of this actually matters.
Celebrity culture, but maybe more specifically the "I have seen this person many times". So much for the Vance case studies. It just reminds me of hearing about Schwarzenegger getting elected the first time. There I was sure Americans will vote for anyone they see often enough on a screen
So her argument came down to "I see Vance more often than I do Walz due to my schooling, and even though he is the example of what not to do, I at least know him." Brilliant
Being contrarian doesn’t mean you’re an independent thinker, the opposite actually, you’re thinking is dependent on what sets you apart from the crowd; even if that means driving off a cliff
Exactly. "Do your own research" and "think for yourself" have become dogwhistles for bigotry and idiocy because so many of those people think just picking whatever is the opposite of what they feel they should do, is the same as ~thinking for themselves~ lol I don't know who told them that contrarianism is rebellious or righteous but whoever spread that myth should be punished atp.
@@DisNotAToasta hardcore contrarian's actions are so heavily influenced by what other people do and believe, that it loops back around to being conventionalism.
Hank Green put out a video a few months ago stating he's never running for office. He had to because people kept saying they would vote for him. They were all about "the vibes." This lady is the same.
To be fair though, through his videos his political views do come up a bit and I know for sure that I agree with them more than most of the politicians
"I'm on the fence" is actually code for one of the following options: - I'm a lazy sh!t who doesn't want to think things through at all, - I'm a coward and don't want to tell you that my positions are disgusting.
It's cause they don't know politics. They don't know how these things literally shape our lives. And they just think it's some team red vs team blue of some sports game they don't understand the sports rule of.
I felt that "Why!!!" People who do stuff for no good reason. We all have petty and lazy reasons for doing or not doing things but at least admit they're that.
And maybe, not always but *sometimes* just do the right thing for the good reasons. For example, when you're tasked with choosing whether a nation armed to its teeth with nuclear weapons should or shouldn't be run by an out-of-control fas***t .
"I grew up not talking politics" how have you not formed an opinion over the past 4 years? Even if it's the wrong opinion so much shit has happened you have to have some slight idea of what's going on
You know our country wouldn't have let his mother vote when it was first founded, so that isn't our democratic republic system of governance fault. It's nonvoters' campaigns and voters deciding to not get on their wives' bad sides fault. (Don't burn me, stating the obvious not saying go back to initial voting policies)
@polydex108 the gall that I can appreciate comedy despite not looking the message. I know, you like to live in your echo chamber. But normal people don't care when someone disagrees with them. It's only when they're in the looney world like this OP that causes a reaction.
They remind me of one of the neighborhood kids growing up. There was absolutely nothing that boy liked more than being the deciding vote on what we were gonna play, and having everyone begging him to pick their thing. It's just wanting to be feel important and getting the attention, rather than actually voting for the issues that affect you(or picking the game you actually enjoy). Bizarre people...
If the vote comes down to JD and Walz, the answer is obvious: she doesn't like the 45th President and JD Vance will say anything to promote the 45th President's ideology.
If you are this ignorant of politics, please don't vote. I say this as an independent moderate that is rarely undecided. Even if you don't fully agree with either side, there is enough information out there to make a sound decision. It just takes some effort. If you aren't willing to expend the effort or not capable, then just stay at home.
The problem we all have is that the question is framed as, who do you like? One day , to overcome, we need to ask, who will suffer more if this person is elected? It forces us to listen deeply to the consequences, and if we're honest, we might recognise the pain of that impact. Idealistic? Yes....
@@WerewolfofEpicnessyou should like less evil and more good simultaneously If our only options are bad, we need to enact actual ways to change those options, not just *letting worse outcomes happen*
@@WerewolfofEpicness I agree that we should like our candidates, but it shouldn't be privileged over which ones will do the least harm. In terms of impact on women alone, the person's VP is awful. And vp's often become presidents. It would be great to have an option that didn't feel like the least awful but actually who could make change....it's very difficult though. I guess what I was saying was that, when voting, we need to understand that we are not voting for our own "likes"... Many stand to lose
@@waterbottom8097 sure, but your first sentence states that going off who we like is a problem. the real problem is that we have been put into a position where we can't afford to do that, and we should still have empathy for people who can't stomach either candidate and take action in other ways such as local politics. there is a fine line between harm reduction and complacency in this situation, and we must be vigilant not to fall into complacency. especially with this new announcement by Harris regarding a bipartisan council to give republicans a voice in her presidency. is it really worth shaming people who don't want to support either candidate over?
@@WerewolfofEpicness Then we need ranked-choice or preferential voting. As long as our system is first-past-the-post, 2 mediocre parties a mathematical inevitability (it even has a name: Duverger's Law).
Vermont also has Municipal and state elections. Illinois has a ballot measure on IVF and progressive taxation of the rich. Don't just go for presidents.
I'd argue that in most years, local elections matter much MORE than the presidency even. The fact that we're cursed with this crazy lunatic trying to bring a bigoted revolution to take the country back in time a hundred years is distracting from that this year, but most of the time the president won't impact a person's day to day life as much as their local elections.
Some people really are living in their own world. A completely different reality that they think is perfectly stable and will never change due to world events.
'Everyone else dislikes him, so I'm kind of FORCED to like him' is SUCH a wild take. Like, if it's a guy in a boy band or something, fine, whatever, who cares? But applying that to politics is INSANE.
4. Isn't personally affected by any of the most important issues, and too selfish to give a shit about those of us who are. Honestly, being a woman and not voting against republicans every single time is mind-blowing to me...
@@br3669 Rich/white enough not to have been personally affected by politics so far, and ignorant enough on issues to have no idea how much that's gonna change with Project 2025...
I just don’t understand how someone can get to OCTOBER 2024 and still be undecided. It’s like, do you enjoy living in a free society? Do you appreciate the rule of law? Then freaking vote for Harris! I can’t even with these people.
I’d like to hear the contrarians’ view when they (or their partner) have their legs spread on the doctor’s exam table and just got told that their 15 week old fetus is not viable and endangering their life but the doctor can’t legally remove it to save the woman’s life because it’s now against the law. Or when they learn that the one night stand they had resulted in an excruciatingly painful ectopic pregnancy that will rupture and kill them but doctors can’t do anything until they start haemorrhaging so they have to wait it out in the hospital parking lot hoping that they won’t pass out from the pain and bleed to death while they wait for the inevitable. To roll a die weighted against your wellbeing just coz you don’t like how everyone else agrees that it’s a terrible idea to elect people who will force you into such a position is literally *insane*.
It doesn't have to be a one night stand to cause an ectopic pregnancy. It could be from missionary with her Christian husband. And now her 4 kids will be without a mother because she didn't think it could happen to her.
She's said: "I'm kinda forced..." to vote against what her friends vote for. This shines a light on how contrarians are the least free people in spirit. Even "sheeple" are at least able to just follow their herd, while the contrarian is desperate to see where everyone's going, to go the opposite route.
Not free if other people's decision is _still_ your only reason for making one. If you go to restaurant, but change your order just because other people want the same, you're getting in your own way.
That's exactly the problem. I think a lot of people aren't really undecided, they just know that their decision will illicit vitriol from the opposing side.. and who wants to deal with that, really? Not me.
Okay, is no one gonna mention how insane it is that she’s vote for Gianmarco. Like, okay he seems nice and I like his comedy, but holy hell that doesn’t make him a good president!!! These types of people are absolutely absurd… TBF, just based on the political opinions I’ve seen him talk about I’d probably agree with him on most things but still…
This is why it baffles me that we haven't seen celebrities running for president before. Reagan got elected 40+ years ago, but then we somehow had decades of just regular old politicians before Trump came along. I wish some actual left-wing celebrity would have thrown their hat into the ring, maybe we could have avoided Trump in 2016.
@@Forsworcen Republicans never kick out a politician, even if he turns out to be an actual child molester, while Democrats overreact to the slightest "scandalous" thing. It's the one area where I actually agree that both sides are wrong, just in different ways. 😄
being this ignorant about politics just SCREAMS “I’ve lived a privileged life where I didn’t have to worry about politics because I knew that it wouldn’t affect me” and her attitude during this just makes it worse
I thought the same thing. She lives in a state where a lot of her rights will probably be protected regardless of who is president, but a lot of other people do not have that privilege. I live in a state where I feel very safe but am at least not so ignorant as to believe that everyone else in this country is or will be. It always amazes me when Gianmarco manages to spin gold from other people's ignorance.
I think we should be able to state what our reason for voting for the candidate we choose when casting our ballot. There needs to be some accountability in the end. It shouldn't be, "I voted for whomever because of who they are." We need people to vote because of what the issues are and what we feel will be better for the future.
Nah, we just need more people to vote. Trump voters are like 30% of the voters, tops, yet enough people abstained from voting that he got in once, almost got in a second time, and has a chance of getting in now, despite being objectively the worst person to ever run for office.
@korganrocks3995 nah. I disagree. My money was good under Trump. Even during the pandemic. Biden killed America. Harris said she couldn't think of anything she would have changed in the last 3.5 years. Her VP pick is a nutcase who thinks abortions should be allowed til birth. And if the baby survives, the Dr's can kill it anyway. Trump has about 60% of the country rallying for him.
@@korganrocks3995Hillary won the popular vote, it's down to gerrymandering and stuff like that Increasing voter turnout in California and New York does nothing
@@poodychulak Who said anything about California and New York? We know about gerrymandering and all the other dirty tricks the Republicans pull to keep as many minorities from voting as possible, which is why we all need to vote if we can, instead of letting the crazies win.
I haven't laughed this hard in so long, thanks Gianmarco, very cool. The situation was already hilarious by itself and you still managed to come up with amazing bits on top of that
I think this conversation is fascinating. The woman seems largely indifferent about politics, but with the level of polarization in American society you end up expecting everyone to have a strong opinion. The lady is a honey badger and she don't give a fuck, but when asked will say: "I read a bit about that guy and he seems okay!"
People just need to be able to say "I don't know about this topic so I don't have a strong opinion on it." If everyone could do that we would be in a much better place I think.
This only applies if you are at the position to be prvileged enough to ignore politics. Most of the US isnt. It's ok to not know smth but actively trying not to learn about smth that impacts your life is just foolish
@@im1fadedRob I don't totally agree. Like it's a good thing that people are interested in politics because it makes them more aware for who they are voting, and an idea of how the next president will handle the country.
@@alinachrist8416 I don't think it's a question of privilege. 74% of the people who don't vote have don't have a college degree. 52% of the people who don't vote earn less than 50k a year. Politically that creates a self-fulfilling prophecy where politicians are less motivated to actually help people with a lower socioeconomic status because they don't vote, and those very people are less motivated to vote because whoever is in power won't help them anyway. Everyone should vote. I don't care what party, as long politicians are incentivized to try to get votes from everyone.
Some people are just stupid. We have to come to grips with this fact. Try to maintain your empathy and, instead of getting mad, just become incredibly depressed instead.
They're not stupid. Our politics is contentless and entirely vibes based. The news doesn't inform people it just echos their fears back at them otherwise how do we explain how afraid people are of crime and immigration. Nonvoters make the point that it will make no difference in their lives who wins because with a few notable exceptoons real policy siffeence doesn't exist. Trump beags about oil and gas permits bit Biden has approved far more and he's the environmentalist? Their lives will just keep getting worse. People aren't stupid they are uninformed even if they try to be informed.
To be fair, Trump is really old. People were worried that Sarah Palin might become president if Mccain had a heart attack or something, and he was like 7-8 years younger than Trump is now.
The vice president’s main constitutional responsibilities include presiding over the Senate and casting tie-breaking votes. Their influence can vary significantly depending on the administration and the relationship with the president. A vice president can wield considerable power by taking on important roles in policy discussions or representing the administration in key negotiations
0:35 Ah yes, a classic Dramohawk from Gianmarco here. The Dramohawk is a gesture in which a person presses the base of their thumb to their temple or forehead with their fingers extended up or outward, giving an appearance similar to the "mohawk" hairstyle. This is a defensive display produced by actors or performers (sometimes referred to as "drama students") to signal embarassment or confusion often in response to the actions or opinions of others.
I cant help but hate contrarians. It's like they want to project this air of superiority in not following other people but fail to reflect on consequences of that or show how much privilege they have in the complete lack of skin in the game. Half the time it just seems like a cover for bad behavior they really want to choose without taking responsibility for that choice and its consequences.
I saw the UA-cam Shorts version of this interaction and the bit about I minored in geology was a good one. :) Also the gasps when they hear she may not vote, haha, it’s worse to them than voting for Trump.
Not voting is the same as voting for whoever wins. Not voting isn’t proving a point or taking a stand, it’s saying “I agree with the majority and have no opinion of my own.” AKA not voting could potentially be the same as voting for Trump…
@@GreenUnicorn06 You’re preaching the choir. I just think it’s funny to audibly gasp at that. Sure, we political junkies feel that way, but most people in the wild are apathetic and barely care. So it was just funny to see someone get so audibly upset. …Also because it does imply that not voting is worse than voting for the opposition, which I disagree. But I do agree that not voting isn’t a victimless crime.
Every year, for the Stanley Cup Finals, I pick one of the two teams to root for mostly based on some small detail or just general vibes. I don't put much thought or research into it at all, as I don't really care much who wins at the end of the day. I've come to the realization that the way I am with sports is the way undecided voters are with politics...
Politics has never been about voting for the "good" candidate, it's always been and will unfortunately always _be_ about voting for the least bad candidate.
Women like the one in this baffle me because it's so selfish to consider voting for someone who will cause basically unmitigated harm to huge swathes of people, especially people who are already in harm's way. If you have one ounce of empathy, it should be clear who the least bad candidate is.
Voting for the "least bad" candidate is how we got into the situation we're in in the first place. If you believe that it's the only option within the electoral system, than maybe the electoral system is the problem.
@@Cogfather If there are only two options, you have to vote for the least bad one. The reason we got into this situation is the stupid system for voting which garuantees you'll end up with a two-party system, not because anything the voters did. Currently the choice is between "more of the same" and "the end of democracy", so anyone trying to convince people not to vote for the least bad is either a moron or a Russian bot.
i'm surprised she never looked into Harris' PR campaign since she announced. her policy of doing non mainstream interviews and outwardly insulting republicans (at least for a while). btw by non mainstream I mean not the mainstream for a politician, more common for a regular celebrity or influencer.

It’s stupid because there’s other things to vote on besides the president in the election!!! Like things that directly affect you.
@@jessberch7041 Yup. I have been talking to my friends about this. California alone has 10 propositions on the ballot. I have voted twice so far and some of these propositions can go incredibly tight. We also have some county stuff and the main topic there is homelessness which is incredibly local and affects everyone. So acting as if the presidency is the only thing on the ballot is straight up unbelievable.
Morons...
It's crazy how she didn't even name one issue she cares about.
Maybe people are undecided because they don't know anything about news and can't be bothered to google anything about any topic. Basically "I dunno, candidate A is a little cuter, I guess?"
Typical for undecided. Don't actually care about the issues because they think both are equally evil. I guess their eyes and ears don't tell them things.
-Not being like Trump
-Getting the spotlight
-????
-Being a great comedian
Exactly my thoughts, this is fascinating to watch. She didn't name one thing related to politics.
I live in Pennsylvania. The swing voter that this election is all directed toward is amazingly undiscerning. A huge number of voters in general vote entirely on vibes and cultural affinity (hence that thing about wanting to have a beer with Bush). These interminably long election seasons are remarkably policy poor because our horserace coverage has no interest in substantive discussion of any issues at any point. Despite this people can see what's happening in Gaza is fucked even though coverage is so dehumanizing to Arabs and gives no historical context. Therefore like Adam Conover recently pointed out you have the candidates describing fake problems or fake solutions everyone has agreed to pander to based on bipartisan received wisdom. The overlap when it comes to immigration and internal repression and foreign policy and external repression is near total but fiscal policy also aligns a ton. When the only difference is how much you hate immigrants or how much your want women to lack autonomy that doesn't cover most things people care about but we don't understand how anything works or we wouldn't credit the president with how bad inflation is.
This was amazing because in the end her vote doesn't matter, and also, she might not vote. I think this says something about how seriously people take politics but also how little difference it is likely to make to anyone's everyday life. The nonvoting plurality is telling us what a sham these parties are. Our political discourse speaks to peoples fears and insecurities but doesn't even help fix any of it hence decreasing legitimacy of all our institutions. No one wants to rock the boat and speak truthfully the way Bernie does. It's too much of a risk so everyone keeps lying and pandering and I want to barf that suburbanites around me will decide this depressingly close election. The fascism we fear is clearly already here or we would care that Biden gas been continuing Trump's border policies.
the anguished face/body language of the masked person sitting in front of the undecided voter was exactly me watching this clip
Saaaaame.

I want to have a discussion session with her and very politely and kindly ask her questions about what issues she cases about and what issues she is aware have a direct effect on her life, plus get her to make a pros & cons list about all 4 candidates. Mustn't forget to go over the basics of how to find reliable info. She also needs some therapizing on whether sticking with contrarianness, Pathological Defiant Disorder, or whatever else, is worth the repercussions on life-and-death topics.
lol i bet they thought "damn i hope it's clear from the video who's talking and people don't think it's me"
If she's a PR major, she should have been assigned to watch the debates and then create a positive and a negative ad campaign for both.
How are you in a degree to literally spin bullshit on the fly and someone asks you a loaded question and you say "Eh?"
Her boss would ask her for propaganda and all she can give would be a fuzzball of confusion. Which works fine enough sometimes lol.
She never said she was good at it 🙂

It’s crazy how some people are so privileged their whole life, living in their safe bubble, that they still don’t know how to think even after becoming an adult.
Some people stay in their “safe bubbles” as a way to cope with the complexities of the world. Ignorance can sometimes be a form of self-protection. Instead of criticizing them for it, we could encourage them to explore new ideas and perspectives. We all grow at our own pace, and a little empathy can go a long way in helping someone break out of that bubble

If you're voting just be contrarian with no idea what people's policies are AND you're studying them repeatedly for your PR major... I don't know how much more society can do to encourage you to engage in politics at that point.
@@JamieBlack-p2iyour description reminds me of a take I heard from a video about literacy. The thing she said that really stuck with me was: "Ignorance of the world's complexity comes at the cost of being able to operate in it." Illiteracy is surprisingly prevalent. Perfectly competent and independent adults hide their issues instead of engaging with them. Even when adults can technically read and write they may be functionally illiterate or struggle with denser text or critical engagement and experience great shame along with it. It's incredibly hard to increase your literacy as an adult if you feel like you shouldn't have deficiencies at all. People ignorant about politics, government, or democracy usually find it impossible to admit to it sincerely.
Really hard to have a charitable view on that person's perspective tbh.
We are not a serious country.
Those voters exist in every country. In some places there's even a weird phenomenon going on where immigrants vote for the far right anti-immigration party more than some other demographics.
@@SaHaRaSquad They're easier to scare. The phenomenon is disturbingly common, "kicking the ladder down" and not wanting others of their background to experience upward social mobility. There are some economic elements to it too like immigrant families that have a degree of financial security voting for liberal policies but those in business lean right-wing.
"It's the comforts that make us feel numb." - Hozier
@@SaHaRaSquad imagine not understanding the difference of immigration and illegal immigration and why someone who came here legally would not want someone to come here illegally.

When people look at two candidates like Harris and Trump and say they're undecided its like asking which one is worse, a migraine or brain cancer and they have to ponder the answer.
@AnnaChristina-z2w the analogy that I'm making is that because one is clearly so much worse than the other, it shouldn't be a long or difficult decision which sucky option is the better one. Btw Harris would be the migraine, Trump would be the brain cancer if it wasn't obvious

I had the same experience with my mom. I asked my mom if she agrees more with Bernie's views or Biden's and she said Bernie's. So I said "then why are you voting for Biden?" and she said "Because I just can't stand the sound of his voice." I said "Is that seriously a valid reason to not vote for him?" and she said "Well that and that he's Jewish and I don't think America would vote a Jew into the presidency." WE'RE JEWISH! I meen on some level I get that, but can we at least not vote on antisemitic rhetoric in our own home?

Her metrics to politics is celebrity culture it’s pretty obvious.
If it was a GianMarco vs kanye election she’d vote on who’s art she likes more.
I think it's also clear she is unaware of the issues in play or why votes matter. She said she was not raised with politics, so let's assume that means her family never talked about it and she was in Vermont where most people are liberal so unless she started spouting some MAGA sound bytes, everyone assumed she was similarly liberal and never brought it up. Then she got old enough to vote, she knows nothing about politics, and she thinks you're supposed to pick the more likable person or something. In reality I'm 99% sure she should be voting for Harris. When the best attributes she identified in the right are "does anything to seize the spotlight" and "everyone i know hates them," she's not a Republican. She just doesn't understand how American politics works yet.

Celebrity culture, but maybe more specifically the "I have seen this person many times". So much for the Vance case studies.
It just reminds me of hearing about Schwarzenegger getting elected the first time. There I was sure Americans will vote for anyone they see often enough on a screen

Brilliant
Being contrarian doesn’t mean you’re an independent thinker, the opposite actually, you’re thinking is dependent on what sets you apart from the crowd; even if that means driving off a cliff
Exactly. "Do your own research" and "think for yourself" have become dogwhistles for bigotry and idiocy because so many of those people think just picking whatever is the opposite of what they feel they should do, is the same as ~thinking for themselves~ lol I don't know who told them that contrarianism is rebellious or righteous but whoever spread that myth should be punished atp.

If you aren't willing to expend the effort or not capable, then just stay at home.
The problem we all have is that the question is framed as, who do you like? One day , to overcome, we need to ask, who will suffer more if this person is elected? It forces us to listen deeply to the consequences, and if we're honest, we might recognise the pain of that impact.

I’d like to hear the contrarians’ view when they (or their partner) have their legs spread on the doctor’s exam table and just got told that their 15 week old fetus is not viable and endangering their life but the doctor can’t legally remove it to save the woman’s life because it’s now against the law. Or when they learn that the one night stand they had resulted in an excruciatingly painful ectopic pregnancy that will rupture and kill them but doctors can’t do anything until they start haemorrhaging so they have to wait it out in the hospital parking lot hoping that they won’t pass out from the pain and bleed to death while they wait for the inevitable.
To roll a die weighted against your wellbeing just coz you don’t like how everyone else agrees that it’s a terrible idea to elect people who will force you into such a position is literally *insane*.
It doesn't have to be a one night stand to cause an ectopic pregnancy. It could be from missionary with her Christian husband. And now her 4 kids will be without a mother because she didn't think it could happen to her.
She's said: "I'm kinda forced..." to vote against what her friends vote for. This shines a light on how contrarians are the least free people in spirit. Even "sheeple" are at least able to just follow their herd, while the contrarian is desperate to see where everyone's going, to go the opposite route.

@@im1fadedRob I don't totally agree. Like it's a good thing that people are interested in politics because it makes them more aware for who they are voting, and an idea of how the next president will handle the country.
@@alinachrist8416 I don't think it's a question of privilege. 74% of the people who don't vote have don't have a college degree. 52% of the people who don't vote earn less than 50k a year.
Politically that creates a self-fulfilling prophecy where politicians are less motivated to actually help people with a lower socioeconomic status because they don't vote, and those very people are less motivated to vote because whoever is in power won't help them anyway.
Everyone should vote. I don't care what party, as long politicians are incentivized to try to get votes from everyone.
And these people are why we had 2016, prove me wrong.
that & the electoral colage
Some people are just stupid. We have to come to grips with this fact. Try to maintain your empathy and, instead of getting mad, just become incredibly depressed instead.
“Ladies and gentleman, please welcome the median American voter!”
Gianmarco's body language is mind bogglingly hilarious.
Just when you think you have a low bar for how stupid can people be, then you reach a new low that makes you think "how low can we go"
They're not stupid. Our politics is contentless and entirely vibes based. The news doesn't inform people it just echos their fears back at them otherwise how do we explain how afraid people are of crime and immigration. Nonvoters make the point that it will make no difference in their lives who wins because with a few notable exceptoons real policy siffeence doesn't exist. Trump beags about oil and gas permits bit Biden has approved far more and he's the environmentalist? Their lives will just keep getting worse. People aren't stupid they are uninformed even if they try to be informed.
The T-Shirt is so cute ❤
Ikr? I love the colors ❤
I know! Im wondering where I can get one
The person in front of her is me 😆🫣🫠
With the mask? That is cool to be part of that live.
@@polydex108 Still wearing a mask in 2024... wowzers.
Love the guy in the front wiping away tears.
Whoa! An end title screen! Someone's moving up in the world lol
my aplhabet mafia sibling in christ, that side eye is intense
That these kind of people exist is mindblowing to me. Just unreal,...
Does she know that vp don’t do shit?
To be fair, Trump is really old. People were worried that Sarah Palin might become president if Mccain had a heart attack or something, and he was like 7-8 years younger than Trump is now.
The vice president’s main constitutional responsibilities include presiding over the Senate and casting tie-breaking votes. Their influence can vary significantly depending on the administration and the relationship with the president. A vice president can wield considerable power by taking on important roles in policy discussions or representing the administration in key negotiations
Crazy how I saw that wood cabin-y stage set up and immediately knew it was in Vermont 🤣
0:35 Ah yes, a classic Dramohawk from Gianmarco here. The Dramohawk is a gesture in which a person presses the base of their thumb to their temple or forehead with their fingers extended up or outward, giving an appearance similar to the "mohawk" hairstyle. This is a defensive display produced by actors or performers (sometimes referred to as "drama students") to signal embarassment or confusion often in response to the actions or opinions of others.
She's infuriating. "growing up like that" is not an excuse to be ignorant. She's a grow ass woman, she needs to mature.
Really putting the T in T-shirt😂
I cant help but hate contrarians. It's like they want to project this air of superiority in not following other people but fail to reflect on consequences of that or show how much privilege they have in the complete lack of skin in the game. Half the time it just seems like a cover for bad behavior they really want to choose without taking responsibility for that choice and its consequences.
Contrarianism is an objectively terrible trait to have 100% of the time.
Oh my god, if they're all like this, all of a sudden undecided voters make so much more sense 😂
I saw the UA-cam Shorts version of this interaction and the bit about I minored in geology was a good one. :) Also the gasps when they hear she may not vote, haha, it’s worse to them than voting for Trump.
Not voting is the same as voting for whoever wins. Not voting isn’t proving a point or taking a stand, it’s saying “I agree with the majority and have no opinion of my own.” AKA not voting could potentially be the same as voting for Trump…
@@GreenUnicorn06 You’re preaching the choir. I just think it’s funny to audibly gasp at that. Sure, we political junkies feel that way, but most people in the wild are apathetic and barely care. So it was just funny to see someone get so audibly upset. …Also because it does imply that not voting is worse than voting for the opposition, which I disagree. But I do agree that not voting isn’t a victimless crime.
Every year, for the Stanley Cup Finals, I pick one of the two teams to root for mostly based on some small detail or just general vibes. I don't put much thought or research into it at all, as I don't really care much who wins at the end of the day.
I've come to the realization that the way I am with sports is the way undecided voters are with politics...
Just make answering an essay question a requirement to vote.
Make a stand and know what you care about. 😖💙💙
That's for grown-ups with self-esteem/spine.
Politics has never been about voting for the "good" candidate, it's always been and will unfortunately always _be_ about voting for the least bad candidate.
Women like the one in this baffle me because it's so selfish to consider voting for someone who will cause basically unmitigated harm to huge swathes of people, especially people who are already in harm's way. If you have one ounce of empathy, it should be clear who the least bad candidate is.
Voting for the "least bad" candidate is how we got into the situation we're in in the first place.
If you believe that it's the only option within the electoral system, than maybe the electoral system is the problem.
@@CogfatherYou are 100% correct, but people have been brainwashed for so long into thinking that lesser evil voting is a good thing 😕
@@Cogfather ok, so your realistic solution is what? Let more people die? Let the wannabe dictator tantrum thrower have the nuclear codes?
@@Cogfather If there are only two options, you have to vote for the least bad one. The reason we got into this situation is the stupid system for voting which garuantees you'll end up with a two-party system, not because anything the voters did. Currently the choice is between "more of the same" and "the end of democracy", so anyone trying to convince people not to vote for the least bad is either a moron or a Russian bot.
It’s a pretty low fence if the answer isn’t staring at you in the face!
I can't believe he referenced DBZ Fusion! 😂
the ending LMAOO
i'm surprised she never looked into Harris' PR campaign since she announced. her policy of doing non mainstream interviews and outwardly insulting republicans (at least for a while). btw by non mainstream I mean not the mainstream for a politician, more common for a regular celebrity or influencer.
Walz is 100% the better option just on his record alone
She gets an equal vote to you, reader
Depending on the state, might be worth more!
(I’m from California)
Instead of dismissing the contrarian with a vulgar epithet, I'll only remark that I envy her blissful ignorance.
J.D. walz 😂😂😂😂 omfg.
