Exactly, Trump is an outcome, a symptom of a deeper, more systemic cultural problem within the US.
It's not only him, look at the entire GOP, and what forces are at play to keep these people in place.
The people currently in charge are there to protect historic interests/positions and they know they will lose them forever in a fair election. Because most of the country has moved on culturally.
- frockington1 6y agoThe cultural lines with the two parties seem to be changing. Back in early 00's, I remember the conservatives were saying you can't say ______ because God forbids it. Now it seems to be liberals saying you can't say _______ because it offends XYZ. I don't know why this is happening but it is kind of strange to see as censorship and silencing has never been a popular position
- epistasis 6y agoLiberals have always said "you can't say X" for all sorts of things, not as a matter law, but because they don't want people to be assholes. The term "PC" was invented a looong time ago for this. The only thing that's changed is that people are pretending that it's new and unprecedented, as a way to garner more outrage.
