I mostly agree with you.

I too am nyc/nj and la based. What seems like 'everyone' to us may in fact only be a vocal minority. I base this though off the maps showing red counties and states across much US with blue on the coasts. I also have come to assume that people saying nothing political online are more conservative (or at least rational) and they don't participate because it is not socially stylish to do so in this pc era.

I agree that people in the dark. My challenge when people engaged with me over this Kavanaugh bru ha ha has been to ask people the basis of their opinion. All the angry people had not watched the testimonies, but instead are relying on partisan and biased coverage of the hearings. I encouraged people to warch both parties testify then get back to me. They either changed their support to K or at least agreed that things were not as one sided as they were lead to believe. I then asked people to extrapolate that manipulation times the thousands of issues and opinions they have formed (been given).

6 stages comment may not be too far off. My best effort will consist of being a stable source for info. And I will try my best not to gloat or say I told you so.
