This is what happens when we dont have basic rights like universal healthcare or stable jobs. And the “lesser evil” political party has nothing to offer besides vague phony optimism.

More and more people are being pushed to the fringe right due to the failures of capitalism.

We need better.

    Lets be real, a lot of these people are just sick in the head qnd desperately need help they probably cant afford

    Agreed, and alongside a whole host of other issues the most glaring ones are a colonial mentality/indoctrination, many over their whole life and even perhaps generations back. In truth as a PoC who came from a very mentally colonized family, a large chunk of PoC (of all communities) in the west, as well as across the world, also could use some serious help in this regard too.

    The medicine/healthcare they need is re-education, basically psychiatric help. Whether they will or can get it is another matter, and the extent of damage they will do in the meantime is immense.
