Almost 40,000 people registered to vote in the 48 hours after President Biden announced he was suspending his reelection campaign and endorsing Vice President Harris, Vote.org said.
Vote.org said 38,500 new voters registered, representing the largest number of registrations in a 48-hour period this election cycle.
Of the new voter registrations, 83 percent were from people aged 18-34, according to the voting registration nonprofit group.
It doesn’t help that any time someone disagrees with a centrist, this is the immediate assumption.
unfortunately there’s going to be people, often trolls themselves, who weaponize “you’re a troll” to silence people. It’s a way to deflect from their own inflammatory behavior. Or, it’s someone who’s sick of trolls and they are on high alert for them and had a false positive.
That’s why I encourage people to not engage with a suspected troll. Their goal is to prevent productive conversations from happening and they enjoy wasting people’s time. Instead of disagreeing with them, find someone else in the thread being reasonable and talk with them and contribute to productive and engaging conversations.
Also, sorry if this comes off a preachy, it’s not my intention. I’m just trying to be careful with my wording so I say what I mean and don’t accidentally offend.
