    Because everything that is being done is “technical.” Most “common” people aren’t really paying attention and if you were to describe to them how fucked everything is becoming it would involve describing processes the government would normally follow and then explaining the changes. Not many changes seem all that “roit worthy” when taken at face value until you understand the consequences of the action.

    Consider the provision added to the tax bill that passed the house, it would essentially make the executive branch completely immune from the judiciary, making Trump a king basically, but you’d have to explain how funds are allocated and the process of contempt. By the time you got halfway through most peoples eyes will have glazed over and they’d be thinking “when the fuck is this weirdo going to shut up?”
