> You didn't realize the whole subject of "what is a woman" was pretty much a "minor issue", blown out of proportion by MAGA, social networks, and podcasts?
When I say that was one of the main issues people voted on, what does it mean to be a minor issue blown out of proportion? Does that mean they didn't really vote on it in a significant way? Or do you mean they did, but you think they shouldn't have?
> Like, how was that subject more important than January 6? Doesn't it bother you more that a former president (now president) tried to stop a vote count?
I've never seen any particular fallout or actual problem that came out of January 6 other than people saying how bad it was. Certainly not based on any footage I saw. Equally I'm not that bothered by the Democrats removing their democractically elected candidate and replacing him at the last minute with a party leadership-ordained one. But you should probably be if you're that worried about Jan 6, as that was far more consequential.
> The fact that you lack the awareness of how mad and self-destructive this administration is, not just internally within the USA, but also the destruction of decades of soft power, is truly mind-blowing to me.
It might be worth re-reading my post. It was talking about the election, and not what's happened post election. Seeing all of Republican behaviour across all time with no context as to when things happened isn't going to bear much fruit, I think.
