    you’re really not paying attention to what’s actually going on.

    Nice contention-bait opener, but I am one of the few people who have actually read exit polling. You’re not wrong on any of that, but the reality is definitely not plain and simple, there were more factors at work, but yeah the overall gist is people vote based on what they’re feeling at the moment.

    The wild-card is how the populations feelings have been tampered with systemically by capital for decades.

      “This thing cannot be understood.”

      Actually it can if you just pay attention to X, Y and Z.

      “Ahah, you fool! I knew that all along. I just pretended I didn’t understand because that makes me look smart!”

      OK? Whatever floats your boat, bud. You have fun with that.
