They aren’t bootlicking, they’re telling you the fucking truth and you are too thick skulled and poorly educated to understand it… proving their point.
US citizens elected Trump. They believed the blatant lies despite being told the truth.
That’s all there is to it.
We are genuinely so fucking stupid as a society that we (not me- citizens in general) voted to give up all our rights and enable a Hitler wanna be.
And we are too stupid to understand that all it would take is a couple hundred thousand of us marching into DC and guillotining every member of government that allowed this, then allowing the military to conduct new elections with stricter rules. This process is literally in our constitution. Second amendment.
Prevent public officials from lying by law, stop lobbying, stop allowing money to matter in politics (no candidate may spend money on advertising of any kind.)
Each candidate gets one hour on free, live television/streaming to present their campaign. If they lie at any point, they are immediately disqualified. Then there is one debate. Lies are immediately disqualifying from public office here, too.
We really should look at intolerance as part of the social contract and those that are intolerant have violated the contract and are no longer a part of it and should be booted out.
It’s a philosophical paradox of sorts though. If we then begin to no longer tolerate intolerance, don’t we then become intolerant ourselves? It’s a slippery slope. Philosophically speaking of course.
Edit: the answer, IMHO, is a benovlent and benign world Governing AGI… However getting there is difficult if impossible, given that right now AI is programmed by humans, and thus tainted.
What boot am I licking? Nobody should be in charge, because whoever they are would be a human, and humans are too stupid to take care of themselves.

That’s it. Simple as can be.
But US citizens are too stupid.
Absolutely agree here. For far too long have we tolerated intolerance.
