It’s always seemed to me the nature of the right is to value team loyalty over principle; on the left the converse. Never see this discussed

Just watched that very talk. Fascinating. And I guess sub-group competition explains Right’s belief that ‘winning’ is always relevant

Good article, aside from the fatuous notion presented that Democrats are not in any way responsible for doing poorly with certain groups.

See the recent DNC email for a technology job opening which explicitly says do not share this email with any cisgendered white males.

Canadian here. Like most ppl here, have voted for all 3 major parties over the years, based primarily on platform. Is that uncommon in US?

But when you look at questions of group/self-interest, it often comes down to the same thing.

Implying there could be voters whose allegiance is ideological, not tribal. Ideology just formalizes the etiquette.

Center-left (Buffet, Gates, Steyer, Zuckerberg, Soros) has most money. Clinton pacs raised 2.5x as much as Trump. Far-right = poor rednecks.

do we need a more sophisticated way of voting, to guide people to the decision that aligns with their beliefs rather than tribes ?

And how would this "guidance" look like? Maybe having a some sort of literacy test..?

Don't know. Series of Qs that profiles values & needs, then independent ranking of alignment vs Party A, B, C, Policy set A, B, C ???
