Honestly I don’t know what’s going on in the USA. You’re so proud of your “democracy and freedom” yet one of your 2 political parties is able to effectively dismantle the entire thing in less than a decade. You’re now one election away from being a christofascist state.

…and yet you’re all just going to work tomorrow. You’re all doing pretty much nothing except “make sure you vote in 2024.” So I guess every 4 years you’re going to be one election away from a literal Nazi takeover?

I don’t know. Riot or something. I have no idea how you’re all coping so hard.

    We don’t have a choice. It’s work or starve for most people. You can be fired for no reason at any time and the unemployment system is a joke. Even working many people are living out of tents. The entire lower socioeconomic strata is on the edge of a cliff so they literally can’t afford to do more than vote.

    My prediction is if Christofascists get in power they will have 8 years where people treat it as normal. Then when it’s apparent they won’t ever fulfill their promise to help the working class (because it’s prosperity Christianity and poor people are bad people) there will be an attempt to vote them out. That’s when the country will wake up. Just in time to discover that fascists get kind of violent when you try to remove them from power.
