      A significant portion of our population, primarily in Republican controlled regions, didn’t receive an adequate education, so they lack critical thinking skills or any concept of how our government actually functions.

          Because the actual left was disorganized and scattered after eighty years of Red Scare even before fascists got direct control of the alphabets and liberals are fucking useless.

        Don’t forget those that want public education to fail so that they can make money off the private schools and people who want private schools so they can discriminate legally.

      If you speak out about it you’re seen as a “Radical” and/or “Leftist”
