There’s a reason we don’t teach the constitution, US history, and civics. We are, all of us, at the mercy of our high school teachers. And they are at the mercy of their districts. We don’t know much because we don’t teach it. Chomsky right. There’s little money in it for the power brokers if there’s an educated populace making informed decisions. And if all citizens voted (or suppression was tackled…) - they’d all be in big trouble. Not trying to be reductive but if we had 130% voter turnout - look for voter fraud. At 60% - we’re not adding fake ballots to the equation. From comments in so many social media posts, it’s unlikely that 1 in 5 would pass a basic citizenship test. Keep doing your work here. You’re an important voice.

Irony of ironies, Supreme Court gives Trump right to ignore them! The only way we can stop him is massive uprisings. I hope people are beginning to awake to what we have done by putting this madman in the White House.
