The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The PA posts I made in a certain forum, posing as a Kamala Supporter, using condescending snobby words and themes to talk down to undecideds and Trumpers have not gotten "hot" but I will say, 2 of them are now warm. Some replies are Trumpers but some are well intentioned decent folk who are truly undecided and now are starting to get angry. People don't like when you call them "dumbass oil workers" and you tell them "you better vote Kamala, you don't know better". Lycoming County is good, good, stuff. Bucks is 50-50 and as usual the snobby Liberals are more present on social media though, Croydon is a good patch and surprisingly - Bensalem has good play.

But the AZ posts I am disappointed - NOTHING. Tempe, Flagstaff, Yuma. NOTHING.

Atlanta there's a few responses via YouTube comments on a realtor's video (welcome to *** county, a guide for new residents) so who would've thought that would get some play.

This is my style of "door knocking" who knows it might turn around or turn out even a few voters and costed nothing. It's about all a peasant can do.

Anyhow it's early and I'm checking for more replies now. For the ones that get really offended and say bad stuff on Kamala I need to find a snide way of saying "look, you're not gonna come out to vote anyway, you're all talk" without it being *too* obvious that it's a ploy all along. I'm thinking this is a post-Dunkin-Coffee thing to think about . Lately I find if I'm hungry I'm impatient. Yeah I'm fat but doc says my A1C is ok. Go figure. I got a $1.00 donut deal on the app though. It'll be nice to be out of there for the mid $3's
