I think capitalism has done a number on the american people, and that's why they're in the state they're in. Poorly funded education plus dubious news sources (eg: fox news) is a bad combination.
I think its the fault of bad leadership and a culture that values individualism and "wild west" kind of isolation. Its also tough because America is huge its no wonder people in Texas dont care about people in new York, they're a world away. Its sad, I feel for the people in America right now. I'm not sure how theyre going to get past this but i think they can. Its going to take a ton of change from the government and the people.
Fox News and some other outlets like it are pure propaganda. I don't have an answer to it, but it's very frustrating that we're apparently so defenseless and helpless against something that's intent on destroying democracy. We have no active defenses.
