Gotta admit, I expected this admin to speedrun fascism, but I'd be lying if I said I was expecting it as soon as April

Tbf, we've spent the last 8+ years making sure echo chambers become the name of the game and completely breaking down discourse from "across the aisle" so to speak to the degree where we mostly don't interact with them, and they mostly don't interact with us. We've set it up like this seemingly intentionally, if all they do is watch fox and truth social and neither of those places are talking about it (tbf I'm kinda with you on this, idk if they are talking about it because I'm not there either, so), how can we expect them to have heard about it?
Like sure we're all aware of it here, where they aren't, but have they heard of it where they are? And how do we fix it, go there ourselves and tell them? Might be too late, tbh.
Something will have to happen that punches through all bubbles. I hate to say it but the most likely scenario at this point is a mass casualty event that is unquestionably perpetrated by the trump regime. May shock enough of them out of it, but likely would be spun as justified somehow.
That's it though. I can't think of anything else.
