You can thank a combination of right-wing propaganda, centrist incompetence, and leftists not uniting enough against this threat like they should.

This does not respond to a global surge of the right, in fact, the left has been on the rise through Latin America the past couple years.

It also fills me with great unease about our future as a species. It's actually not that hard to figure out.

That's why that one graph recently showed how much worse educated the average right voting citizens are.

Very true. These folks are mostly going along with it because they really don't know any better. For instance, look how the Marcos family was able to turn their smeared reputation around by using fake news to trick people into voting for Bongbong.
