    Yes, many Americans do understand this. But many others do not, and those are the ones in charge now. We don’t want them to be in charge but there’s not much we can do about that at the moment.

    I don’t understand why non-Americans assume we’re all as stupid as the trumpers.

    We are not a hive mind.

      It’s not a question of understanding. It’s a question of what they choose to tell the rubes.

      There’s a lot we could be doing, but we’re not.
