None of this is mysterious, people have been talking about it for years. In Alberta, we made one our premier. People just don't want to pay attention to reality.

Yeah I don’t want to tread too hard on any poster approaching all this as some grand psychological and sociological quandary to which they are enlightened enough to be scratching the surface of, but the “why” questions are pretty simple.
“Why are young men feeling this why?”
“Why can someone like Kirk become popular?”
“Why is there division in politics?”
Kind of nothing questions disguised as insight. Not as wild but pretty close to as painful as Trent’s “both sides!” crap.
How to actually solve the problem is what’s actually difficult, especially when a growing segment of the population don’t want it solved.
