As it has been nearly a year since I last posted this here, and we have a lot of updates, I’ve decided to post this list again for those who are having a difficult time keeping track. Especially since the US has now started a war without even an AUMF before the editors have even had time to put up December’s update, I think it prudent to keep this at the forefront of our minds.

Edit: note that this is only for his second term. There is a link to the ORIGINAL “Lest We Forget The Horrors” at the top of the unending catalogue here, and that includes trump’s first term. I personally recommend downloading both as PDFs, since then they still exist if some fascist decides that this satire website is too zealously exercising first amendment rights and needs to be shut down.

    Hot take: it had little to do with the relative merits, perceived or otherwise, of either candidate. The GOP won a meat grinder propaganda war. Democrats tried to appeal to human reason. The GOP instead spent decades consolidating control over the machinery that bombards American minds with propaganda 24/7. It was a proxy war for the humanity’s consciousness, and reason lost. Either party could have ran a baked potato and not many votes would have changed.
