    Democracy has been crumbling for decades. The inability to afford food is a today problem.

        I’m not normalizing anything. People need to eat.

        You asked a question and I answered it. This is why people care more about their immediate costs than abstract political stuff that doesn’t directly affect them in their daily lives. Don’t blame me if you don’t like the answer.

        And just because people are concerned that their immediate costs doesn’t mean they’re not politically active. You’re making a huge amount of assumptions just to make your own point sound more valid, which is pretty arrogant, vilifies, a huge amount of people who were just trying to feed themselves and their families.

        Edit: Trump is in power because he lied and cheated and stole and conned tens of millions of people and de voting for him. That’s his fault. Blame the people responsible, not the victims.
