You can’t help people who won’t help themselves, and there must come a point at which you have to stop trying. If these cities keep electing horrible, corrupt politicians or straight up morons, they have to deal with the consequences.
You really have to wonder who ran against some of these morons in political office sometimes. Honestly, was the alternative to someone like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being forced to step on a rusty nail? Was Eric Swalwell’s opponent a literal cannibal promising to consume children if elected? If you set out to elect some of the dumbest creatures to ever walk upright on the planet, you couldn’t do much better than what Democrats currently have serving in Congress and the White House. Why?
"There is no good answer, at least one that covers everyone. "There are, after all, a lot of really dumb
Democrats in office. You have to ascribe some of it to identity politics, which is the polite way of
saying racism, but the rest of it has to be tied to people’s desires to be pandered and lied to. A fish
swallows a hook because it wants the worm, dumb people see pandering the way a fish sees that
worm.
"Look, there have always been, and will always be, dumb people in the world. But you don’t give them
power the way Democrats have. You hold them off with promises and distract them with shiny
objects because they’re stupid." . . .
