The root of what problem, exactly? Yes, republicans are insane, I hate everything about their entire platform and I hate that they’re in power. I want a real left party that will kick these stupid Nazis’ asses, which is why I’m not afraid of being critical of the democrats. Now’s the time. We’ve just been punched in the head and it’s time to decide how to proceed. Do we get our shit together and start swinging for the fences, or do we pout and blame the voters because we really deserved this win and they just didn’t understand that?
Okay, we agree that Republicans are insane Nazis. Good.
What could the Democrats have done that is so bad that insane Nazis sound like the better option? What makes that a rational choice?
I don’t think there is one. I don’t think anything the Democrats did mattered because voters weren’t voting based on reality.
There is no democracy without an educated populace. We have something worse than that: a miseducated populace. The apathy towards voting and the hatred of the current administration are intentionally engineered by bad actors.
