Political and religious marketers don’t have a slot for the majority of people. I was a standard neocon Repooflican from 2001 to 2008. The shock of 2008 made me start looking in different places. Soon I switched to pure New Deal, and haven’t switched back. My writing here and elsewhere has been pure New Deal, and I haven’t contributed to the state or national RNC since 2008.
Online spam and ‘for you’ selective algorithms still treat me as a loyal RNC Repooflican. They assume I agree with National Review, they assume I love Trump, and during the few months when Elon was part of the official pantheon they assumed I loved Elon.
Polls show that a large number of Americans are in the same quadrant as the New Deal. Socialist economics, traditional morality. It’s not a rare outlier. Why isn’t it noticed by marketers? Why don’t they TAKE ADVANTAGE of this common position?
