Both problems may be present, but I think one of them is the bottom line/root cause. It’s a numbers game. I don’t think there are enough who are in touch with reality to influence election results.
Yeah, it's a matter of whether you want to address problems proactively (nip them in the bud), or reactively after you have a crisis on your hands. If you live in reality, you can see problems and growing trends, and take action (or at least demand of politicians) to do something about it. People SF instead are so deeply mired in a cult-like ideology that they'd rather stick their head in the sand for a very long time denying there's a problem, in fact castigating anyone who points out there's a problem, and instead vote for people who will further an agenda while exacerbating the problem.
