Capitalism, severely lowered expectations, mainstream news media controlled by the billionaire class pumping out capitalist propaganda. People continuing to believe the Democratic Party wants to enact universal healthcare when all elected Dems really care about is staying in power, doing the bare minimum, and raking in the cash from their billionaire donors. People continuing to vote for Democrats based on that belief when they could be using their votes to vote in anti-capitalist candidates from the real left (Green Party, PSL, etc).
When Democrats are in charge of all of the levers of power, they say: “Darn there are all these rules we have to follow and the Republicans are obstructing us and won’t budge. Oh well, better luck next time 🤷♂️” while behind closed doors they’re listening to the health insurance and pharmaceutical lobbies who offer them money and perks and special treatment and job offers in the industry once they’re out of office.
I recommend Untrap for Youtube app, add on for multiple browsers that lets you customize your YouTube experience. Things I like the most are changing thumbnails (like blurring or making it a clip from the video so you don’t have to see clickbait thumbnails) or removing thumbnails altogether, removing recommendations entirely from YouTube (when I watch a video, all I see is the video), and making my homepage my subscription feed so I only see stuff I want to see.
