      Nah I think you're right. The reason they hate Trump so much is because they've been able to ignore how shitty America is for most people their entire lives and they just want that back.

        They lived assuming "this is how it is no matter what." Then Trump shows things don't have to be that way, they can be different (much worse) but the liberal is incapable of imagining a truly better world.

          incapable of imagining a truly better world.

          Because they have absolutely no conception of collective action anymore, being highly individualized, atomized subjects of consumer culture. Of course, changing the world alone is impossible, so you've got to stan for some politician; fandom is a familiar mode anyway

      That's exactly what the Trump presidency has done. His grotesqueness and the ineffectual response to contain him made me realize just how shitty America is.

    consumer culture infantilizes and stultifies to the point that you're yearning for parental figures to take care of the bad things, because you cannot even imagine a world in which you are a historical actor yourself

    These people would be so much happier if they just found a nice mommy domme instead of forming weird parasocial relationships with the wives of politicians.

    Huh wonder why we're inventing parasocial relationships in a capitalist hellscape that destroys communities and turns family members into liabilities

      While that was the intent, you've been recast as "sassy sidekick"
