This is the issue with all populist ideologies, where there is one monolithic boogieman that explains all ills. The real world just doesn't work like that. It's an interesting case study into confirmation bias and bad quality thinking, I guess.

Nice 2016 populism boogieman: completely broad-strokes it’s-all-the-same statements with no arguments at all. Do you see the irony and/or hypocrisy here?

Yes, I will say it: all these 2016 populism blanket statements are equally monolithic and devoid of convincing points, just fodder for your own particular echo chamber.
