I’m simply pointing out that facism is not at all a common endpoint one arrives at through accurate/natural/honest education. Unless you’re born into the top echelons of wealth, hardly any political actions in current platforms are of true benefit to you.
Trump respected the system and thats why his “smol loan” got him places. That is the system. It was created by and for the very fuckery that he is known for.
i’m talking in a more directed political context, those who do not respect the decorum of the political institution are doomed to succumb to the fate of fascism inevitably.
The entire purpose of the decorum is for the system to function properly.
I’m pretty sure I learned more about the US government growing up in Canada than a lot of US citizens. We had Schoolhouse Rock on tv with our Saturday morning cartoons (I’m old) and studied the US federal government structure for a few weeks in middle school.
The “intended” functions and responsibilities are still taught as far as I’m aware. The more accurate and honest current functions behind not only our own government, but others, is entirely missed at a highschool and below level, and is dependent on college professors personal political values for accuracy and honesty in relevant courses.
Nazis modeled their final solution after various aspects of slavery. Disney, Ford, trump ,and many other prominent Americans supported fascism and Hitler.
Why is he allowed to run for president?
Because this country has a festering fascism problem
Perpetuated by an education problem
Caused by the fascist problem

i mean, i feel like you could argue it’s a common outcome for people that don’t respect the system (i.e. trump)
Education may have a part in it, but people believed uri geller could break spoons…

Decorum that asks for people to “respect” and follow is a built-in loophole.
Hard, robust, and readily reassessed punitive rules are the only solution.

I would say most colleges don’t require gov/civics courses either.
my HS had a rather comprehensive and detailed government course, as per state curriculum. So it depends on where you go i guess.
Always has been.

Because Russian money has infiltrated The Supremacy Court
Also the Senate. McTurtleFucker tanked both impeachments and then said that it was up to the legal system to hold him to account.
They knew what they were doing, and the whole fucking party is complicit.
blatant corruption that no one’s doing anything about
