I mean… sure, some of them, but definitely not all? After all, conservatives make up more than a third of the entire country? I think there’s room for nuances, particularly when the Democrats are roughly equally corrupt (defined as receiving money from special interest groups), and even more inept at politics (I’m not talking Bernie Sanders, I’m talking the rest of the party that threw him away).
It’s like the Linux vs. Windows debate - moral purity sounds high and mighty and all, but what about those of us forced to live in the real world who have to use Windows (even if rarely) for our jobs?
Particularly people outside of the USA like to look down and judge… as if nearly identical disinformation warfare campaigns are not hard at work there too. We in the USA knows what that feels like - “haha, but surely that will never happen HERE” (meanwhile, it was happening here for decades, under our very own noses, but like the analogy of a frog in a cooking pot, we did not jump out so long as it proceeded forward slowly). It CAN and it IS happening elsewhere - pretty much everywhere, just at a less advanced stage.
But maybe other nations political systems are more robust and can handle the onslaught better than we could?
