that last 3rd was the people who flipped to trump cuz eggs/illegals/inflation/things and/or didn't vote cuz thinking hard.
America is not a serious country.
The educated 3rd and the angry 3rd have to duke it out, but you need to somehow influence to dumb 3rd to care at all about anything. Not sure how you do that when they are raised on one way streams of balanced new information, endlessly marketed to, and have never once, ever been challenged to think laterally on anything in their life whatsoever.
I used to laugh at people who said shit like "America's war on critical thinking" but I get it now. We have literally been murdering our every day citizenry for decades, making them soft balls of goo who don't want any intrusion on their life from any goddamn thing at all. I have no clue how you engage these people. However, I do the know the current plan, the one of the past like 20 years - whereby rational discussion and policies and shit isn't working. Its just not a serious country any longer.
