I try not to let this shit get to me. It's always darkest before the dawn and all that, but damn.

The general population is so fucking broken. They're just absolutely mind fucked from being raised on a steady diet of right-wing propaganda from all major Western parties.

How do you even begin to fix all of this. I feel like I'm drowning and being pushed under by my own damn species. We are all so sick.

I’m with you here! It’s very disheartening to see that not only are we sliding towards fascism, but the general public is coping in the most dangerous and unhinged ways. Scapegoating minorities and marginalized groups for the failure of a system, meanwhile buying up all the treats they can before “orange bad man destroys the economy”. It’s a sick and twisted situation and my wife and I are spiraling a bit right now.

That all said, I really wish there was a tangible way to fix this, but I can’t get my head above water long enough to see it. My only thought would be to continue hammering home the point that democrats failed to do politics well and basically left the country out to dry as usual. Every time they do it, it gets easier to make people see it. Just have to hope the sentiment sticks this time around? Idk, it’s so fucked…

It's not the Democrats fault it's the left for not voting for Harris! It's Muslims! It's Latinos! It's Gen Z! But especially, the left!

We were already appealing to them with a $25,000 credit for your first home and by not being Trump. What else do they need?
