The American people clearly spoke, and the drubbing Democrats received requires looking beyond just issue polls, voting patterns, campaign strategy, or get-out-the-vote tactics.
The recent decisions by two of the most influential national newspapers of record to not publish their endorsements of Vice President Kamala Harris says a lot about how seriously they take Trump’s threats to democracy and his promises of vengeance against his enemies.
On the eve of the historic November vote, it seems important to ask: What's wrong with men, how did we get here, and can we change this?

The star-studded summer blockbuster has been lauded as a feminist film. But Barbie is not just pro-women—it’s also very pro-men.
"POTUS" is an acronym political journalists frequently use when talking about the President of the United States. However, "POTUS" seems a woefully soft and inadequate word to describe the current occupant of the Oval Office.
Washington Post reporter Drew Harwell talks about how Americans are welcoming surveillance devices like Ring and Nest into their homes, and — as they can now watch their front doors, babysitters, children and pets all day long — how surveillance has become normalized.

No change in US
As briefly as possible, the issues here all tend to revolve around/lead to the notion of socialism. Sen. Sanders has reportedly expressed support for democratic socialism (there are several forms of socialism) in the past. Today, he is running for the opportunity to represent all people, and the US overall rejects democratic socialism. Liberals seem to like the sound of it, but let's be realistic. Democratic socialism does, indeed, include a legitimate welfare system. When was the last time you heard even liberals call for restoring the basic human rights (per the UN's UDHR) of food and shelter to America's poor?
I can't say what it's like elsewhere, but in the US, people so strongly believe in the success of the corporate state that they think everyone is able to work, there are jobs for all, therefore no need for poverty relief. This indicates that progressive change is not possible in the foreseeable future.
