A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.
Just rewatched season 1 of Andor and it was even better on the second viewing—and a relevant mirror for the state of affairs in our current world.

There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

With journalists struggling to get people to take warnings about climate change and fascism seriously, a filmmaker stepped in. 2073 combines dystopian fiction with real-life footage from the world right now to send an important message.

Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines.
He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.
Andy Kim: "If you want to know why there is so much chaos and confusion about what happened with regard to tariffs, I can say it's because of the absolute dysfunction of this national security council as demonstrated by what just happened with Laura Loomer."

The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."
If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.
