I feel like none of the people in that picture deserve to have a laugh at this. They are responsible for that orange dookie being in the White House.

MODERATORS
Nah, take accountability.
Yeah, clearly their fault and not the millions of voters who preferred fascism or the millions of people who didn't give a shit enough to do anything. /s
Fascism does not happen in a vacuum. It happens when the political system becomes stagnant leading voters to turn to populism for political change. The right embraced this to secure control of the state, the Democrats dug their heels in the dirt and consistently supported third way Democrats who consistently sold off social safety networks and progressive rights to secure economic benefits for the wealthy donor class.
And a lot of people who "voted for facism" are just average citizens who don't look to deeply into politics (either don't care, understand, or have time/energy) and just bought the right wing lie of "fix economy, gib jobs, lower fuel price, tough on crime" etc. And went with that.
Yeah, some of the voters are straight up facist, but people here are being too hard on people who's time and energy is squashed by the hyper capitalist machine and are surrounded by propaganda
Fascism isn't appealing unless the status quo is extraordinarily bad for the average person. Observe, the party of the status quo. Do you not think they contributed to where we are?

How Obama
Because Obama said 'Yes we can' and then completed that sentence through his actions with 'do nothing of substance'. Since Reagan, workers' pay has fallen behind the wealth generated through those workers.
This has led to the biggest inequality of wealth distribution in the world.
And history shows that the people noticed. History shows that a breaking point was reached during the Obama years, because after Obama, people had so little faith in the government that they would vote for a joke candidate that promises to burn the current system down over a serious candidate that promises to guide the current system along.
The problem is that unfettered capitalism only knows one end-state: with the most wealth concentrated in the hands of the fewest people. And the unwillingness of politicians to oppose the rich and powerful is the reason people do not trust the government anymore; is the reason why capitalism in the US remains unfettered.
And history is repeating itself in all other western capitalist nations. Far-right firebrands are on the rise everywhere.

My neighbor who is in her 20s, when she's hamming up the cringe, she does that. Purposely cringe.
The person who wrote it here did it fully as a part of the joke. Which... Ew.

What the Facebook is this?
Reddit leaked again
"The Resistance"
A bunch of corporate conservatives in suits
When will the establishment acknowledge their responsibility for it all?
All 4 of these people can fuck off into the sun, as soon as they're done telling us which stocks to buy.
This joke is about as effective as their sternly worded letters
And they all(except Obama) lost to that guy....
It's worth noting that Clinton actually did win the popular vote. More than half the country voted for her, but due to the stupid as fuck way the Electoral College works, many of those votes were effectively discarded
