      I blame the owners of news and social media. How can people make good decisions if they can’t perceive reality?

          I don’t understand what you could possibly mean by this comment. We, as in the American electorate, directly chose fascism. What the fuck do you mean that we will see it soon enough? We didn’t take the path you say also leads there eventually, the only way to tell where it leads is theory. We are never going to see the real world impacts of the choice we did not make.

      The voters and especially the non-voters are to blame along with the politicians. Why shouldn’t they be responsible for voting against their own interests or sitting it out after having seen a Trump presidency?

      No fuck yes. Blame them.

      Are you saying that trump won because his policy and campaign was stellar.

      Trump won because his base acted instead of passively watching. They took over everything and all the left could say was “don’t roll with them something something pigs”
