I think I was frustrated because nobody I talked to wanted to learn the context. Indeed, their entire political participation demanded they ignore it.
It took me a few years to understand it in that way.
And for the longest time I was mystified why the marginalized people could see it plainly while anyone who participated anywhere on the political spectrum : - from progressive to liberal to libertarian to mega to religious extremist , and the mainstream news - ignored the basics of democracy. It was to me, the most peculiar thing about American culture
