    This is happening. There is NO waiting it out and shit changes. MAGA destroyed the United States of America. You get that, right?

    You may go to work tomorrow but it won’t be under a democratic republic.

      LOL! Nah. Everyone will vote against the Republicans in 2026 and everything will go back to normal, don’t you know.

        Perpetually online motherfuckers moving around through inertia alone with no capacity for anything that remotely feels like confrontation.

        We’re doomed to this.

          I don’t think it’s just the perpetually online. I think Americans in general still think they will be able to actually vote in the mid terms

            That too. There aren’t going to be any midterms. Any elections we do have will be in the style of the Putin regime.

          Do any of you actually build networks and post content or just show up on Elm St and hope your message spreads through thoughts and prayers. I bet must of you don’t even have accounts on most social media

            No, we decided not to hand over all our data and that of our friends to the fascist machine grinding down the world’s democracies. But it sounds fun.

                Without the interference of fascists and the selling out of all my contacts and private information.

                If that’s too high a bar, then I guess I won’t be spreading information meaningfully.

                  Kind of cool that you were convinced to weaponize this passion to remove yourself from social media where you could do some good. Good thing the timing isn’t convenient or anything

                    What the fuck are you talking about? Any actual plans to get rid of the fascists in charge is not going to be posted about on social media. It’s going to talked about quietly in people’s basements and shit.

      Well, I won’t work tomorrow. But on Monday it will be under a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy.
