    It’s insanely difficult. All of this shit has substantially changed who I am at my core. I opted not to leave the country a few years back because my parents wouldn’t have been able to get in anywhere else for being too old.

    Now I’m pretty much waiting around for this whole thing to get rebooted.

      That’s part of the problem. Everyone is standing around waiting for someone else to fix it for them.

      You gotta pull together with others and work as a group to fight back.

      I know group cooperation towards a common goal runs counter to the "nation of rugged individuals " mythos that Americans have for themselves, but that’s what it will take.

            There have been protests nearly every single day since he took office. We’re already grouped together fighting back so you’re either uninformed or you’re calling for open revolt.

            So which is it.

              Isolated and uncoordinated protests.

              And not nearly big enough.

          How far are you from your state legislature? Or from your congressman’s office?

          And, again, have you got together with other people to combine your voices?

              I’m involved with DSA in my area.

              That’s exactly what I’m talking about.

      It can’t be rebooted until the series finale ends… in civil war.

        Yeah, we’re in a mid-season plot stretch to see if this administration can “weekend at Bernie’s” a vapid blathering demential patient for another year so that JD Vance can get 2.5 terms as president.
