You're not giving any credit to the apathetic fucks who didn't vote and the dingleberries who had to do a purity test even though it was clearly that Trump was going to go completely fascist with project 2025. Don't let those people off the hook.

This is because many reasons, you see the weather wasn't particularly good that day, and most Americans have accepte3d the Republicans gerrymandering the vote for decades without repercussions. So it is not the Americans fault that the American system sucks, it's the Canadians I tell you, the Canadians are ruining America.

By god I'm so tired of those American apologists, saying it isn't a majority when the election result was accepted by a VAST majority. And 100% for sure there was not a majority of voters that voted against him. And even if there were, it wouldn't change that insanity id part of American society today. This includes lack of healthcare for all, and instead having a slavery like healthcare paid by employer system. Also lack of gun control, taking away food stamps from the poor and hundreds of such issues where American society is designed to work in a sociopathic way against the poor and the sick and minorities.
American society is sick, and that goes way way beyond gerrymandering. And ultimately the American voters are the ones responsible for the system.
So Absolutely the American voters are to blame. And that even includes Americans in the democratic party that keeps the democrats a wall street party before anything else.

Logically you shouldn't be ashamed because of how other people vote, but there have been occasions where I have been ashamed of our government too.
So if I was American, I would probably be ashamed too. All the idiots reflect poorly on the rest of US, disregarding which country.
Problem with USA though, is that it is such an important country for the rest of the world too.

Perhaps, our educational n systems, cultural insistence on the individual, so many things are societies failings.

There's also the urban/rural split that continues to let formerly isolated people push their 'not like us' narratives on through the years, then came the social media scape where that bigotry could be broadcast...

Big place, big problems, and tough to solve without someone getting riled up enough to start shooting again.

Thirdly you can still buy funny hats that aren't MAGA.
Your defense of Americans reeks of desperation. It's not that I don't understand you, but it sounds like you are a bit in denial.

I respect Asimov very much, and USA has always been a weird duality society, a society of opposing sides.
And there were always problems like slavery, and when that was abandoned extreme discrimination even to this day.
A lot of the social programs structure in USA is designed to keep the "slave class" in check. With a demeaning food stamps program, and lack of healthcare for all. Having healthcare through your employer is a form of slavery too.
