The Republican party is the group who can stop him at the Senate, House and Supreme Court. Not a single one of those fucks are doing that.Because they want this, yes.
Where's the choice for the wealthy/wealth inequality? Because that's always what it is, everytime throughout history.The wealthy, just like the poor, are the consequence of unregulated capitalism and the power and priority given to the markets.

Yeah. As the other guy said, we create the wealthy with capitalism, and the wealthy create further capitalism.Yep.
This. It's the republicans who are doing the lying, cheating, and stealing. It's them who have made propaganda outlets. It is them who have poisoned the well. It is them who have attacked education. It is them who have them who have constantly attacked democracy.
Ultimately I blame everything on the failure to properly punish the south after the Civil War. Yes, I do think it can be traced all the way back to that. I think America would be very different today if we hadn't left that cancer to fester
I completely agree with this and the post you responded to from Marvel. The Republicans have been poisoning the well for decades and have completely abandoned good faith governing in purposeful pursuit of this outcome. Trump is a symptom of this disease, but the GOP set this course a long time ago and is responsible for it.
The electorate is a close second. They have all the information they need to make good decisions, including a disastrous first Trump term and a literal coup attempt on live TV. But our voters are too lazy, gullible, and adverse to critical thought to have basic good judgment. We take democracy for granted, and dont take voting seriously, as if democracy is always going to be there for sure. Our ridiculous electorate being so easy to manipulate is how the GOP knew they could get away with getting us to this point.
Everything else has some responsibility, but is very far down the list of our problems.
How is the answer not the American peopleif we removed decades of intentional propaganda and sabotaging of education systems by rightwing politicians and media and religious fundamentalists, then no, we would not have ended up here
You remove any of the options above it and you'll still end up here.
if we removed decades of intentional propaganda and sabotaging of education systems by rightwing politicians and media and religious fundamentalists, then no, we would not have ended up hereNone of those are options on the poll except maybe the Republican party, but they wouldn't exist without the American people.
if we removed decades of intentional propaganda and sabotaging of education systems by rightwing politicians and media and religious fundamentalists, then no, we would not have ended up hereAll of that was done by American people tho
Psst, hes part of the media.Yeah, and for the same reason that Republicans and Democrats aren't lumped into the same "The government" option just letting all of the media getting lumped into the same brush is just ignorance at best.
All of that was done by American people thoRupert Murdoch was born in Australia
Rupert Murdoch was born in AustraliaAnd yet he couldn't own a television network in the US until he became an American citizen and renounced his Australian citizenship.
It's the American people themselves.
This massive backslide has only been possible with social media.Yep. Our current situation is almost completely caused by social media and the most evil people with the biggest platforms. Sure, we had moronic groups like the westboro baptist church and random nazi groups in the past and they have always existed in some form in general, but in the era of social media every single idiot now has a platform to spread their dumbassey, and is actively encouraged to do so by the idiots that run the biggest ones, twitter, facebook, telegram, 4chan and it's spawn, etc. Back when all we had were newspapers, radio and television these clowns where rarely ever given the time of day for their bull-shit.
Capitalism. Fascism will be the end result of capitalism unless it's tempered with other ideologies.
But capitalism isn't a person. If you want a single person at the start, I'd probably go with Reagan. So many of the issues today can be directly traced back to Reagan era policies. Repeal of the Fairness Doctrine? Reagan. Low tax rates for the wealthy and corporations? Reagan. Mass deregulation? Reagan. The gutting of the welfare state? Reagan. Reaganomics? I'll give you a guess. The obscene redistribution of wealth to the rich? Ronald fucking Reagan. Even the slogan of Make America Great Again is a Reagan thing.
I notice an option missing from this poll.
