It’s a ridiculous narrative (the trump thing). Any explanation for behavior of a group that depends on patronizing assumptions rarely reflects a true understanding of that group’s motivations. It’s not a reason to let up on Facebook but it’s always been a stretch to think that in an election with billions spent that Hillary lost because of this shit. Try a simpler explanation: Hillary was a shit candidate who many distrust, and she worked very hard to get that reputation.

It seems to me that many people who are not Clinton worked very hard at manufacturing this reputation.
