People on the right, especially conservative politicians, keep talking about the residents of Democrat hellholes as if they were purely victims of their insane Democrat leaders, leaders who were seemingly visited upon them like a tornado or a plague of locusts. Republicans believe that if their messaging could only be presented to urban dwellers, those dwellers would start voting Republican. Nothing could be more ridiculous. Urban residents elect Democrats who then enact policies that destroy the cities in which the residents live. Democrat leaders then blame Republicans for the problems they themselves created. Rational, intelligent residents would reject such idiocy, but urban populations instead buy into this and subsequently elect more Democrats, who then deliver more of the same. "Asylum" means "protection". Mental institutions were called asylums because they protected mentally incompetent residents from the outside world. Urban Democrat residents belong in asylums, but unfortunately there are too many of them and they all get to vote. Their derangement is increasing; no amount of urban dysfunction triggers any sort of recognition of the problem. Our only hope, going forward, is to get away from them. Since they tend not to reproduce, their own insane behaviors would ultimately limit their populations, but unfortunately with limitless illegal immigration and the Democrats' limitless power to indoctrinate newcomers, I'd say our future is pretty grim.

I saw that several days ago!!!!! Thank you for your above comment. I get your point. These voters are NOT victims. They foul their own nests.

How incredibly sad to see cities like Portland going down the drain. Libs are political carcinogens.

Stephen Turley just did a recent VID on the top 10 U.S. cities in most rapid decline ... I was shocked that Portland and my home town Chicago, did not make his list ... and RE Portland becoming a good example of failed progressivism ... I still consider myself an independent progressive ... but you can blame AOC for hijacking, debasing and turning the term "progressive" on its head and the RINO's for piling on ... AOC is not a true Progressive, members of the "squad" are not true progressives and supreme court judges are not true progressives ... there was a time when the Progressive label really stood for something ... true Progressive voices have now been systematically blocked from mainstream political discourse and traditional progressivism has in fact been castrated ... a fellow Substacker accurately said it once held that it's possible to improve human societies through political action ... as a movement, progressivism sought to advance the human condition through social reform based on purported advancements in science, technology, economic development, and social organization ... advocates held that progressivism has universal application and endeavor to spread this idea to human societies everywhere ... he said he could only imagine how President Theodore Roosevelt, a noted Progressive, would have reacted to a female Supreme Court nominee who doesn't know what a "woman" is.

PITA: "As a movement, progressivism sought to advance the human condition through social reform based on purported advancements in science, technology, economic development, and social organization ... advocates held that progressivism has universal application and endeavor to spread this idea to human societies everywhere." Allow me to point out that this movement was very quickly hijacked by eugenists, racists and those with superiority complexes: Margaret Singer, Woodrow Wilson right to today's mad scientist, Anthony Fauci.
