This is bullshit. People do not hate fair democratic elections, transparency, respect for the law and other things Democrats defend. Fucking cancer research - people do not hate that. The fact is that people didn't believe the warnings. They said "we survived Trump I - we'll survive Trump II."

People didn’t believe the warnings because Democrats did not govern as if Trump was an existential threat. Hell Klobuchar planned his inauguration event, and Biden said “welcome home.”

THIS is the correct answer. Because Biden/Garland/Pelosi/Schumer didn't go all hands on deck to get the bastards who planned the Jan 6 coup or went hard to stop the flaws in our system of electing a president that Trump/GOP abused. You can't "trust the System" when the System DOESN'T WORK OUT.

Because trump and trumpism are part of the system democrats defend (capitalist american hegemony aka global white supremacy)

You're cherry-picking two minor incidents. Trump was impeached twice and Dems dominated the news for weeks with the January 6 commission.

Did any member of Congress or Trump-connected coup plotter do jail time? Trump/GOP has shown you can go after anyone for anything. Did we have any public hearings on Jan 6 in 2021 after the second impeachment? How was that not being publicly hammered EVERY DAY with official actions?

The j6 commission amounted to less than nothing All the insurrectionists were pardoned and Trump got away with J6, because Garland and Joe "Welcome home" Biden delayed bringing a criminal investigation against Trump until it was far too late

you mean that joke of an "investigation" where the dems somehow got a chance to call witnesses but decided not to because chris coons wanted to go home for the weekend? none of that had any consequence besides confirming that the dems are completely useless

Also Kamala had a huge burst of enthusiasm because people hated Biden. She pissed it away by refusing to break with him. She then lost. What does that tell you? "mother warned you," I guess.

The system they defend doesn’t have those features, though. It has your boss and your landlord squeezing more out of you each day while they rig elections to fund more cops to beat you if you protest. It’s a fake democracy, an economic dictatorship, and dems exist to say nothing better is possible.

You are mistaking "fake democracy" for "imperfect democracy." Also - it is complete nonsense to say that dems exist to say nothing better is possible. The eternal question is what constitutes "better." If mainstream Dems have a different vision of what "better" means than you do, win them over.

Finally, to say that our system doesn't have those features implies that what Trump is doing isn't that bad. If the system is useless, who cares if Trump brings it all down? If you think about it for more than a few seconds, you'll realize that the system has a lot that's worth trying to preserve.

Buddy I’m not the one saying that what trump is doing isn’t that bad. That’s the people you’re reflexively defending for some reason, who want to work with him to accomplish their shared goals of making the rich richer at home and abroad
