Okay I get Republicans (jk I don’t) but why is the same thing happening to Democrats?
70% of our media is controlled by Nazis especially the news at a local level. Propaganda at that level eventually worms it’s way into the opposition party.
Stockholm syndrome?
Democrats differ from Republicans in degree not kind of ideology.
I mean fair enough but with that framework they’d only change their opinion of these places when their ideological leaders tell them to, which I don’t think has happened yet.
I’m not sure the Democrats even have ideological leaders.
They think they don’t, but many/most of them worship the neoliberal political establishment in a weird abusive relationship kind of way. Listen to your average high-information liberal talk about Gaza dissent in the 2024 election and you’ll see what I mean. Around here saying that the Democrats needed to change course or they’d lose was enough to get you branded as a Russian troll.
Who would it be, though? The closest I can think of is Jon Stewart. But he doesn’t seem to agree with the neoliberal establishment about much.
Resentment towards how the world is rightly talking about US being fucking dumbasses, possibly?
