re: #40 HappyWarrior

I really hate the fascistization of this country so much.

The fact that it’s being implemented so rapidly is the most dispiriting and depressing thing. The impetus was always there and was warned about, plenty of it warned of among us, even. But to see it happening in real time, this rapidly, with almost zero recourse is just…

How the fuck do we come back from this? Even if we take 2020, it seems like so many of the avenues to even slow the backslide are closed to us, much less actually try and reverse it. And it feels like the institutional inertia is almost always and forever on the GOP’s side where they get to do every single bit of shit they want to and the political environment lets them because the alternative is to actually let Dems be Dems, and that can never be fucking allowed to happen, apparently.
