Trump’s Win Isn’t an Anomaly
https://foreignpolicy.com/2024/11/06/trump-united-states-election-democratic-party-coalition* Democrats’ platform, coalition no longer viable
Comment: clearly obvious to even casual observers when the Democrats put Biden (again!) against Trump. They had 4 years to do little of consequence to far-right American voters. Same issues here in Canada: political inertia, lack of fearless leadership willing to advocate hard choices.

@persagen The stark reality is that the far right and their self-serving billionaire backers groom and dupe the less educated and the blue collar worker victims. They will do nothing for them beyond telling them what they like to hear.

@persagen Maybe it could reduce damages to braincells favourising #fascim 🤔
Some other places very opposed to #trumpism has flourid in toothpaste, not in drinking water, which might be wandering a lot less into our bodies and brain.
It might be correlated, not sure of the causality of course, just an idea 🫣

I hate to criticize a historically good neighbor.We (Canadians) can roll our eyes inane "USA! USA! USA!" choruses at every public gathering; h/e:
* white supremacism, misogyny, xenophobia, colonialism, institutional racism, structural violence, conservatism are deeply embedded within our own culture/society
* internet bifurcated society into real world, and virtual world (independent of geopolitical borders)
