People hated Obama that much they went extreme in the other direction at enormous detriments to America.
Went anti-STEM, anti-equality and the whole stretch. They dang near took away rights for white women and sent them back to the 50's in some cases. Some of the shyt they did makes women in the Middle East have more leniency than some states that went all in on MAGA.
I remember seeing a nice, seemingly very pleasant, soft-spoken old white lady support Hilary on TV and adult men got in her face yelling and tried attacking her physically because they hated Obama and wanted no more diversity. They were seriously over it in their bones to that point.
Obama made these people break their own civility.
That's why people seem so batshyt insane today in our government.
