    Trump probably just try some stupid national emergency or alignment with Xi hostile takeover of Taiwan. Says fuck it whose pulling me out of here, dude down to his last set of diapers, got nothing to lose practically. Alternative is a blue wave, democracy encroached, they’ll abuse all the same powers now that the boundary has been pushed and we will see the same shit show clown nonsense with Newsom.

    Regardless if they’re justified or not or party X is worse, rule by executive order and backlash (absolutely) against political appointments (some deserving, some not). But the next wave of democracy’s walls have been broached and libs refuse to give power back to the people instead serving their corporate overlords vs billionaire overlords.

    I see very good, small local initiatives, online and offline, but not the grass roots building into an unstoppable momentum that we actually need to build better societies.
