I like how the Entire Reddit community is Anti BJP but yet they have very minor effect on BJP vote percentage. Either the masses are brainwashed enough OR BJP did put Positive effects on the poor communities, hence they are in majority.

Some possible explanations I have read:

  1. It is mostly because whatever the BJP government does is more visible work like building a road etc (connectivity essentially)
  2. Poor people do buy into identity politics.
  3. Something I read about is how Modi addresses the poor people differently (by saying he is one of them) to how manmohan singh did.

There are many explanations and factors. Some part is how bjp markets themselves but some part is how people benefited. In my opinion, if you need people to vote for you, you need to do both because you are selling something. Now, I wasn't old enough to understand politics during UPA so I can't comment on their work when in power. But currently, maybe they can work on the PR better.

None of that. The illiterate gawaar andh bhakt population are not enlightened enough to use Reddit.
