I love how everyone is blamed for George Santos except the people that voted for him.
It's Dem's fault for not doing oppo research!
It's congress' fault for not having tougher laws against liars!
It's the GOP establishment's fault for allowing liars to be part of their fold!
His platform was trash anyway. The fact that a basic con man can show up and say, "I am for whatever they are against! Let's take America back!" and win your votes, shows that you've learned nothing since Tr*mp.
@mekkaokereke I agree, but the conclusions we draw from blaming the voters are a bit useless. There are no strategies for changing the behavior of a hundred million individuals that aren't cross-generational educational enterprises.
While smart people talk out the details of what those would look like, the rest of us are left asking what can be done so the next election isn't as bad as the previous one. Sometimes, in a strong democracy, the answer really is "nothing" though.
@mtomczak @mekkaokereke it is important to blame the voters because potential voters are who you need to focus on waking up.
