      Same crap I thought in 2016 probably (thanks reddit). F the dems and burn the place to ground. I f%#!ing hope they grow up. Cause that was a terrible choice. I still say f the dems but you need to prioritize targets from most evil first then work your way down.

      They didn’t. They didn’t vote for the alternative because of one issue. That’s the problem.

          People can’t control the party, but they could impact the outcome and choose not to.

            Then it’s not a party.

            but they could impact the outcome and choose not to.

            If they are significant enough to blame, they were significant enough to listen to.

            I’m sure they are. They got their second choice (well, third, but netanyahu can’t run in the US), they’re getting the policy they wanted, and they get to blame the left for all of it.

      Have you been on YouTube lately? (Or any algorithmic social media in general, like Facebook?) Pro-MAGA content gets promoted while anything against is buried. Anti-Trump comments are hidden and you get a “some content might not be visible yet” message in your comment history.

      Gen Z was raised by algorithms, so is it really a big surprise that they lean MAGA?
