And yet...

I think his argument is not about vibes, though.

Our system was designed to not be fixable.

My only solace is that he'll take part in the insane suffering that's coming.

Thanks for writing this for me.

I'm in the same boat. I'm a white straight guy. So, I guess I'm not in immediate danger, although I am an academic. So, I guess my choices are: fight, flee or essentially hide.

Fighting seems infeasible although I think violence is justifiable.

Fleeing would require leaving the country. I dunno if I can swing that.

So....I guess I just live my life and hope it's not quite as bad as I fear? I dunno. I'm open to advice.

I do now hate this country and the bulk of the people who live here. Fuck them.

Gaza gets wiped out even faster now on top of all the other bad things the GOP want.

Not that I believe that Gaza dissenters mattered at all in this election. I'd be amazed if even 1% of voters considered it a factor for their vote.

Vance thinks "normal" gay men are like him: closeted and married to women.

Ok probably not sincere.

The contentiousness is what put killing the filibuster on the table. In less contentious times, we didn't need to destroy basic political norms just to save people's lives.

It takes basically no effort to vote. Things are clearly better with Harris winning than Trump.

Win the WH, win both houses of Congress, blow up the filibuster and enact national protections for abortion.

Will it work? Probably not. It definitely won't happen if Trump wins, though.

Plus if Trump wins, Alito and Thomas retire and get replaced by 25 year old fascists and things get even worse for decades.

I dunno if you were being sincere or intentionally obtuse, but it's kind of straightforward that we have to win.

I think probably MAGA falls apart as no one can galvanize these people like he does. What do you think will happen?

Sure, but I wouldn't have my kid work on a farm or in a quarry. Ideally you get an internship in college or something. Maybe bag groceries.
