Anyone else ever think of pulling the plug on election day? It's just too much, man. I suffered through one term of Trump; I can't do it again.
What do you mean pulling the plug? Like disconnecting after voting? I hope you still do your part and vote. Right?
Of course I'll vote. I'm just not terribly confident about the results regardless.
Fascism won't be going away no matter the results of the next election so we're going to need people to stand up for each other. We need people who can spot fascism and call it out. People aren't inclined to believe the kind of fascist takeovers that the Republican and Libertarian parties have gone through the first time we tell them. At least, when I tell people irl they don't seem to really believe it. We need everyone we can get to keep telling them. There's never going to be a moment when everyone realizes what's happening so people have to spread it by word of mouth, either online or irl.
I don't want to do another Trump term either, but we need to be there for each other.
You'll make it through and our country will either fall apart or come out stronger.
Biden signed off more land than trump in terms of fossil fuel production.
