    You had me up until the point that you assigned a “side”.

    The reason so many find it terrifying that this is a close race is also because the internet has fed the crap starved minds of people who live to see themselves as oppressed. And when one in a mob yells “Nazi”, the rest of the mob yells “Nazi”.

    Fear is a fantastic motivator. And if you can scare your base into believing the worst will come if you don’t vote a certain way, well, you get each side terrified and voting.
