    A system informed those voters to vote through propaganda, or in many places, made it difficult or impossible to vote. We got to start blaming the people with the money and lobby power instead of each other. Fuck trump and his supporters, but most especially the billionaires who paved the road to his election.

      You’re right! Big money and big tech are largely to blame for this! They turned the most used/viewed apps, platforms, and cable tv programs into breeding grounds for disinformation and rage bait and steadily increasing dehumanizing rhetoric.

      The fall of democracy via cronyism, eroding of checks and balances, and disillusion of trust in institutions — most benefits corrupt oligarchs and aspiring autocrats.

      Our country is being gutted by antisocial robber barons and power tripping rapists.

      The villains are in control.

      The system didn’t make it difficult or impossible for eighty million people to vote that’s just people not caring enough to get out there and do it.

      I will blame them as much as I blame Trump’s supporters.

        OK. That logic will absolutely not win elections or change discourse but at least you want to punch Nazis with me.
