Went out for a walk last evening around dusk in my parents' neighbourhood in Pennsylvania... lots of big houses, lots of US flags, lots of big pickups/SUVs. Only saw one TV on in a house as I walked past... but it was playing Tucker Carlson. This is bible thumpin' Trump country. How can people here really be so disaffected, credulous, & ignorant?

@lightweight By design? Religious and ancestry differences have always been used by the wealthy in power to keep the power from shifting to the people. Throw in some lies, like 'the USA is a democracy' and 'socialism always turns into fascism', and you can repress social justice movements. Turn the nationalism dial to eleven, and you can shift blame for your shortcomings on other countries.
