George W Bush and Robert Sylvester Kelly are 2 reasons why I wish for a literal hell to exist and they can go
The literacy crisis that was made worse by the No Child Left Behind policies of the early 2000s created a perfect storm in this current political environment where loud and ignorant people who lack comprehension skills continue to get elevated. It’s frustrating.

Most Americans read at a 6th grade reading level (or below).
That’s why Trump’s speech resonates with MOST Americans because he talks to them at a 3rd grade level and they comprehend that.
Democrats speak at a college level and most people are unable to comprehend that.

I’m convinced that the reason these young “political” commentators on X yelling that Democrats are “just as bad as Republicans” don’t know how to read policies…because they’re actually ILLITERATE.
It’s factually noted that high schoolers now possess the literary skills of elementary students.

It explains why people were OK with not voting, even if it meant they lost both POTUS and Congress.
They for some reason thought Democrats would somehow still be able to come in and save the day.
I guess they just didn't think that all the way through.

Always the blame is 💯 on tate and social media, never on our patriarchal society and the misogyny learned at home.

We're not happy about it, and were DESPERATELY hoping to be proven wrong. I'm not a nihilist, it's a waste of energy. But love doesn't and never will build community. TRUST will. And how do you build when a pattern of distrust has been established?
