Re: Non-Americans, what do you find puzzling about American culture?

1. you become even poorer and you die quietly, yes. it's because we've allowed the super wealthy to horde all the money away and the rest of the country suffers for it. the super wealthy also own politicians from all parties so we're kind of fucked. ingrained defeatism is why we lie down on our backs instead of fight to save ourselves.

2. it's shit but products made with corn syrup are extremely addictive.

3. portion sizes used to be normal some 50 years ago. i guess they were made larger and larger to justify raising prices? i'm not sure. it's a huge contributor to obesity and i wish it would stop.

4. fuck guns. no one should have weapons of war in a fucking neighborhood. the gun-loving population tends to be the most fearful population who think they need to protect themselves from black people and Muslims. it's mainly about racism, fear and the desire to feel "powerful". male overcompensation may also be a factor since it's usually men who are obsessed with them. very scared men.

5. fuck trump. he needs to be impeached last year. he won the election because people sat on their asses wishing for better choices instead of facing reality and voting for the lesser of two evils.

low voter turnout is exactly why he won, actually. and racism.

comey's announcement on clinton's emails as well as russian ad meddling on social media didn't help but they weren't the main factors.

low voter turnout

But turnout was up from 2012.

She lost, in the immediate sense, because undecided middle/upper-middle class whites in Rust Belt states broke for Trump. And that was a result of a lot of different things, certainly to some extent a result of the Comey stuff, and racism was a major part of it, and for a bunch of reasons Clinton hadn't been able to put the campaign out of reach which she probably should have been able to do.

Of course, you can always say that turnout could still have been higher and she would have won if more people had voted for her, you can say that in any election, and that's true in some sense, but the immediate reason was Rust Belt undecideds somehow convinced themselves Trump was more presidential.
