    The problem is that too many aren’t.

    Zohran’s beating the tar out of a formerly popular incumbent with vastly more money and institutional support. He’s got a huge popular groundswell of support. If he wins, he’s threatening to AOC a number of other regional incumbents, including the current minority leader Hakeem Jeffries.

    A lot of the “stupidity” is decades of misinformation, indoctrination, and poisonous fascist propaganda. It is textbook manufactured consent.

    Garbage in, garbage out. The smartest minds in history have believed horrible, foolish bigoted things, simply because their brains were pumped full of rot early on.
