“I want all those other people to suffer, but I didn’t think it would also harm me.”
I don’t think anyone wants others to suffer, they just want better management and accountability on how public funds are being distributed, because the consequence of bad management has been the steady decline of quality of living in America the past few years. My taxes are being spent on housing illegal immigrants instead of homeless veterans. Politicians we elect to office don’t know how to do their job. Biden got us mixed up in two wars instead of de-escalating. Billions down the drain. Things felt generally better under a Trump presidency because he was “America first” (sorry non-Americans), and they’re chasing that feeling/hope that he can do it again. The majority vote was for Trump, so unless there was election tampering, it’s safe to say the majority of Americans feel that way. I personally didn’t vote in the election, because I didn’t like either candidate. I’m somewhere in the middle, so I understand why both sides voted the way they did. I used to be more left, but over time I started to clock the hypocrisy in the party. Especially with Kamala.
People like Bernie never had a chance because the rich control what the media covers, just like they control elections to a certain extent like with Elon funding Trump’s campaign. It’s just the way the U.S. works, sadly. The only other effective way to change things quickly is to send a message to the rich like Luigi did.
