The establishment has failed us and I think that is why we are were we are now. “Everyone Who Was Supposed to Protect You From This Failed Miserably” so sure they failed but we failed as well. Democracy is supposed to be driven from the bottom up, but instead we the people collectively do not pay attention and take responsibility for our our system.
Part of the problem is the will of the people has been superseded by decades of corporate and politicial interests (e.g. Citizens United, Rush Limbaugh, Newt Gingrich, Bush v Gore, etc etc).
Perhaps we should have been fighting back, but this is decades in the making.
Saying that’s part of the problem is akin to saying the asteroid was part of the problem for dinosaurs. All you’re really missing is the gutting of critical thinking in public education under Reagan.
