While I was growing up I routinely had or saw lessons like this, and it resulted in me feeling like I was going totally insane as millions flocked to Trump and his rallies. I keep thinking of this part from "A Hidden Life." How can people not see?? https://imgur.com/q4uAAC2.mp4
Largely because many of the "old guard" Dems are Also corporatists, who work to block real progressives.
Don't get it twisted, this ain't "Both sides are the same", the fact that Dems have enough sense to realize poor people need to be Alive to be milked is a lot better, not to mention how they aren't also child molesting klansmen. And there's Some good Dems. But Economically? The ones with the most power take money from the same CEOs as the Republicans.
There’s lots of problems. Yes the angry voters need a channel, and the Venn diagram of sanders and Trump supporters in 2016 was surprisingly overlapping. But there’s also no where but the democrats now for standard rule-of-law centrists, who by their nature aren’t going to support anything but incrementalism. The democratic coalition is very uncomfortably broad. And the maga one is so narrow, but takes some of those “I won’t vote democrat” guys along for the ride.

From a 1963 TV show "The Twilight Zone". Season 4, Episode 4 "He's Alive". Added captions to the ending (sound on):

I remember seeing this as a child and it being a huge reason why I haven't voted for an obvious child molester who was on the ballot 3 times

The US ended up with a criminal that speaks about inventing "groceries" and how many flushes it takes to get his giant shits down.

It isnt just how nazis move people, the reason Democrats fail so utterly is that almost all of them cosplay west wing characters when -
