All cognition has an emotional component, so you have to be more specific. Once you get more specific, then you'll see that music and art communities are different.

Hi, not comment-op, but... Here's one of the first set of exit polls to look over: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/exit-polls
Though it's a little too early for real analysis, since ballots are still being counted. Really the most interesting questions are things like: in tipping-point states (like PA, MI, WI, maybe GA or NC) how did the vote/turnout shift? That sort of analysis takes a bit longer, though, so we're stuck with clickbait articles like the one posted above.
a hard communication problem
I think it's a lot like tech support. End users don't care about the details. They just want to hear: I see your problem, and here's how quickly I'm going to fix it.
Most Latinos do not work in the fields. Many of us have been here for several generations. There are many types of Latinos. (Disclaimer: I voted, phonebanked, and canvassed for Kamala.)
I was just extending the bait, didn't realize people would take it seriously. I've added an "/s".
In reality, the Amazon driver's pay has been cut, so they ask for a tip. You don't tip enough so they beat you up. If you could afford to order from Amazon, why didn't you tip enough? Obviously you're not supporting essential workers in these trying times. They're just working hard, feeding you, keeping you clothed, protecting you. But they have families of their own to take care of too. You're not even ordering enough so they can afford to take a bathroom break.
Note: this was meant to be: /s
The more I think of it, I wonder if anyone could have won that election given only 3 months. If Obama had been VP, and suddenly made the candidate, could he have done it? Could Hillary have won it? John Kerry? Maybe, but it would have been a miracle.
Kamala did a solid job. Note how people are debating how she could have fine-tuned her messaging or policy proposals; they're not talking about gaffes or complete incompetence. She lost with a deficit of 30K in WI, 80K in MI, and 150K in PA. A definite loss, but not comparable to the landslide losses of 1988 or 1984. Biden was headed for that sort of landslide loss, but Kamala turned it into a much closer contest.
To be fair, she had little more than a weekend to come up with her campaign messaging. She was made candidate like 3 months before election day.
