Problem is to the masses the dissent is represented by Trump. People are stuck in the left/right two party system mentality and don't even realize the whole system is dying. The increasing insanity of the Left may put people off but most see the only other option is to become a Trump supporter and most can't stand him.

I'm going to push back a bit on that. I was a Bernie bro and part of what forced me into looking at alt right ideas was the horror of supporting Trump. I kept saying there's gotta be something else out there. I would have arrived sooner if I hadn't gotten stuck in libertarianism for a few years.

So just because Trump is never going to appeal to liberals doesn't mean that they won't start noticing their own party insanity. I just hope keeps pushing them off the edge. We need an extreme political atmosphere to get people to seriously get out of their comfort zone.
