    I agree that our only way, truly, out of our current mess here in the United States is to get hardcore, focused, and doggedly persistent. Overturning CU, if we ever have a remote chance of even getting close to doing it, will be a hard slog, but it is fundamental, absolutely necessary, and singularly non-negotiable.

    It should be our primary issue, I think, even though it’s not a sexy one.

    If Democrats don’t deliver on this fight, then we must fight the Democrats tooth and nail, too.

    The real problem is that our elected representatives are not sufficiently afraid of us.

    We should be verbally abusing Democratic party leadership until they “radicalize” with us, or join MAGA in fighting us outright.

    If good, strong, brave people can fight the good fight and win, then perhaps we can turn the tide and we’ll keep evil at bay for another 40-year cycle or whatever.

    Or it might be too late, and we have to go through a real destructive cycle of severe suffering at the hands of tyrants first. I hope not, but I don’t know.

      Spoilers: Democrats have already failed repeatedly on this task. Americans are also too stupid and stubbornly independent to properly unionize against this BS, so it’s suffering under tyrants as your only option unless you can figure out a way to unbrainwash the dumbest mother fuckers in this county.
