    Honestly, blame the media for this one.

    They talked about project 2025 for maybe 10 days and spent the rest of the time ignoring the absolute fact that concrete steps are being taken across the board to end democracy and impose a Christian theocracy as fast as possible.

    There was no concentrated effort to warn Americans of the very real threat Trump is, and what absolutely will happen if he won the election.

    All the public saw was a witch hunt against Trump that went nowhere as he promised to be a dictator and change the fundamental structure of the United stated to further billionaire interests, and the actual reality of this was never explicitly stated.

    News media is responsible for educating the population, with standards on the quality and accuracy of the information, but neither side will ever do any such thing.

    Both political parties and every news medium are completely corporately owned and will never platform something that threatens their control.

          Exactly. All of these people saying, “it wasn’t my fault. Harris ran a bad campaign which is why I didn’t vote for her.” It’s both Harris’ fault and your fault. Harris running a bad campaign doesn’t take away your enabling of fascism by not voting for her.
