    Isn’t that how suddenly critical race theory and trans people bathrooms become a hot topic in schools and then turned into a national culture war topic for the right. The Teaparty and Maga put people on the ballot for school board positions and the people that actually show up to the voting booths voted them in.

      Excellent point! MAGA didn’t just happen, it was carefully cultivated group of angry people. And angry people engage, even the algorithms know that. If only the people who claim your vote doesn’t count got angry enough to do something about it.
