Most of the liberal-socialist leadership realized long ago that the dumber and more ignorant their constituents are the more easily they can be controlled and being dumped on. And regular folks, claiming to be liberals just go along for the ride for whatever they think they can get out of it. The drawback of the whole scheme is the more uneducated and ignorant their constituents are the more likely they are to create mayhem and discourse and recent events proof this point.
I see IMHO, that folks who are not the two groups you have mentioned there is a growing sense of having “enough” of this nonsense going on in this society and will, count on it put their “foot” down and say, mark my words, “enough.”
