What EVERYONE got WRONG about Trump

In this raw, honest analysis of Trump’s electoral success and the Democratic Party’s failures, I look at the real reasons behind why Trump won – and they’re not what most people think. Coming from someone who’s been on both sides of populist movements (Brexit), I break down why Democrats missed these key warning signs and lost touch with working-class voters. Beyond just analyzing what went wrong, I dive into how progressive voices are being systematically outgunned by well-funded conservative media, and what we can do about it. After staying up for 24 hours watching election results, here’s what finally clicked about why facts alone don’t change minds and what we’re all missing about Trump’s appeal.

  1. > progressive voices are being systematically outgunned by well-funded conservative media

    What planet do you live on? The establishment – the corporations – are “progressive” – it’s neo-liberalism. Progressivism was an elite backlash to the Populist movement. You want us to believe that MSNBC is “conservative media?” NYT is “conservative” and in the bag for Trump? You can’t make this shit up.

    You could easily get paid to present this tripe to Google and Goldman Sachs because you’re essentially white-washing elite Progressivism by LARPing like it’s 1920 and you’re unionizing railway workers. The “real Left” is Google and Goldman Sachs.

    • LOL check out that guy’s haircut – you can tell he is the “Real Left” and really “radical” because he has a faggot hair cut where he cut off half of his hair – business in the front, party in the back! That makes him “progressive” and “Leftist.”

      Radical dude! All he needs now is more facial piercings!

      You can tell it really makes him “deep” because he is radically radicalizing against gender norms because he has an ugly haircut that makes him an “individualist anarchist” and I bet he read a dozen books in community college.

      I can’t wait until the “masses” get behind some low-rent community college professor with some “theory!” Let’s stage a “revolution against the man, dude!”

      How “raw” and “honest!” Don’t let the MAN stop you from the REVOLUTION dude! Don’t let the CORPORATIONS shame you into a normal haircut – that’s just perpetuating gender norms!

      NEVER LET THE MAN SHAME YOU!

      We need a REVOLUTION!!1

      We really need more Radical Leftist Anarchists who aren’t afraid to be non-conformists and show it off with unusual haircuts and some half-assed community college “theory” from freshman year liberal arts studies from a third rate college.

      Hey – did you guys ever read Noam Chomsky? Radical, dude!
