Multiple reasons.

  1. Many people are dissillusioned by the non-impactful electoral system and thus don't vote

  2. Democrats didn't front anything remotely resembling left policies, but instead committed to being "adult" caretakers of Imperialism instead of nakedly like the Republicans promised

  3. Genocide became a source of alienation when it was out in the open, rather than kept hush-hush

  4. The American Proletariat is, ultimately, reactionary, due to being beneficiaries of Imperialism
