    The problem is that liberals don’t see Trump as a product of what came beforehand, they don’t see anything as a sequence of events leading from one to another. They see them as totally isolated things and if you just prevent the bad man then nothing else would happen. Bad things happen because of bad men and absolutely no thought about what produced them occurs because they are not materialists.

    They will recreate the exact circumstances that produce fascism over and over again.

      It’s confusing how prevalent this mindset is given that it seems to fly in the face of the very basic human desire to understand why things happen. Like a deliberately cultivated form of blindness.
