Over the years it has been increasingly clear to me that liberalism in general (not just specific forms of it) is doomed. I used to assume that other people could be trusted to make important decisions but increasingly it's clear that it simply isn't like that.
Sure if people in general were even close to as smart and responsible as i am liberalism would probably work well but we have to look at how humans in general are now instead of engaging in wishful thinking. I had to realize that i was simply projecting myself too much upon others.
Trump winning the 2024 us presidential election didn't exactly come as a surprise, it was the most likely outcome going by polls and betting odds. I did have a feeling Trump would win right before the election and that feeling turned out to be right.
But liberalism being doomed is a lot more general than specific politicians like Trump. Trump is just a symptom of deeper issues inherit to liberalism in general.
