Elect a clown, expect a circus.

Common guys, we've already been through this.

We are in uncharted territory here. There is no crystal ball for what comes next.

That being said, this is not sustainable. Society is a contract. The contract goes away when parties to that contract begin to disagree on what that contract says, and that is inevitable when people are fed garbage without results. Most empires have collapsed under their own weight. I suspect this will happen to the US as well, which has always been the purpose of all this disinformation: not to consolidate power into a dictator, but instead to sow division, and rip apart the social contract. The fact that Americans are so polarized is proof of that division. You ask if people will ever wake up. Clearly half the the US has.

The only question is how that collapse will happen, and how peacefully it might be.

Consumption tax for everyone! Unless you all want to go to work in a shoe factory.

I spent an unhealthy amount of time on Reddit. Getting bored of Lemmy is a feature, not a bug. Embrace it.

Hold MAGA accountable. Every. Single. Day.

That institution is rotten to the core. No amount of this is going to fix it.

MAGAS are incapable of associating anything bad with their dear leader. Hold them accountable.

Sounds to me like you are not very well read on 1930's German history.

Fighting fascism is a great cause to rally behind and give people purpose.

A constitutional crisis is very likely over the next 4 years. And if it does, all bets are off.

Holding Trump supporters accountable for their actions is the only way forward. There are no more excuses. Every bad thing to happen now moving forwards is 100% on Trump supporters AND complacent bystanders who chose not to take a stand. It was plain for everyone to see. Repudiate fascism and the toxicity plaguing the country at every opportunity.

Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me.

American individualism goes too far. It's just sad.
