Last week, Tracy and Dale McMullen sold their vacation home in Buckeye, Arizona, a property they owned for five years. The Alberta residents, who usually spend four to five months in Arizona a year, said they are not planning to come back.

“We decided to sell the property after the current POTUS took office,” said Dale, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump, who was inaugurated for the second time in January.

“It was time to leave. We felt we could not trust what he might do next to us as individuals and to our country. We no longer felt welcome nor safe.”

anti-goodness abounds

There are a lot of advantages to blaming Russia. Coming together and rescuing MAGA from the 5,000 alternate reality screen games created by Putin / Kremlin / Russia / Surkov and Cambridge Analytica. Read here: https://washingtonmonthly.com/2017/11/24/a-trumprussia-confession-in-plain-sight/

There are a lot of advantages to blaming Rupert Murdoch Media Systems, Fox News, which launched on Putin's Birthday October 7, 1996. Using a 1985 book, more than a decade before Fox News launched..... there are a LOT OF advantages to making the topic "rescue human beings, rescue people" from HDTV Fox News. Please read here: "My dad predicted Trump in 1985 – it's not Orwell, he warned, it's Brave New World. The ascent of Donald Trump has proved Neil Postman’s argument in Amusing Ourselves to Death was right." https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/feb/02/amusing-ourselves-to-death-neil-postman-trump-orwell-huxley

There are a lot of advantages to blaming the Apple iPhone introduced in year 2007 for people who were never educated on media ecology and behavior induced by electric media systems / light-speed media systems.

Can you please define "those people"? and "blame" for what, precisely? Some kind of time frame in terms of blaming who for what?

Conspiracy theory replaces ideology with a mix of self-pity, paranoia, self-importance, and entertainment.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019

Apple and the others you named which clearly are somewhat responsible for the discontent in the United States. What else would I mean?
