I admit I was at least hoping for some federal-level gridlock, but it looks like it's quite possible that Red MAGA will have all branches of the federal government soon. (hexbear.net)

I've already cast down my bucket where I am. I have no realistic prospects of leaving the country. It's quite possible that the humble but still prospering niche I've carved for myself in the last year is in imminent danger, maybe even at a personal level.

I'll say it. I'm afraid. I knew nothing good could come of this election, but having one particular brand of fascism without even performative opposition to slow down whatever acts of revenge or just outright looting and mayhem it wants to do while the climate crisis accelerates... well, I'll say it again. I'm afraid.

That's the post.

I think LGBTQ comrades get priority, but as an anti-zionist Jew and out communist (Communists disdain to hide their views...) I don't feel great about my place in line for the chopping block.

We can go to one of the places the settlers don't know or care about like Yukon or NWT
