Nope, but I can see the very recent past, and all signs point to an already-captured government and the moneyed interests behind that capture solidifying their influence on public opinion through a similarly captured media and social media landscape.

Those examples all relate to why we will not have another legitimate election in the US. We’ll be able to vote again. It just won’t matter. Elections take place in fascist countries all over the world. They aren’t real. You cannot vote fascists out of power. They have been given power in the US and they will now keep it.

Presumably you have heard about the government agencies being shuttered, unvetted no-security-clearance ex-hackers being given write access to government systems, the three branches of government being controlled by the offending party, including the one that decides whether laws are constitutional or not, open embrace of fascist rhetoric, symbols, and traditional talking points, door to door ICE, election interference, widely reported foreign influence, widely reported billionaire influence, discussion from POTUS himself about annexing other countries, Jesus I could keep going for miles but it’s not remotely necessary

It’s too fucking late. Who gives a shit how he’s going to vote next cycle? There will not be a legitimate vote next cycle. Pushing people like him away? It’s over. There are no more chances. It’s all a show from here on out. That is not an exaggeration.

Which young politicians and new media commentators would you point to? I need new people to follow.

“The revolution will be federated” fuck yeah

Thanks. To be honest, that article doesn’t really convey a sense that Democrats are going in that direction. That’s just a few politicians in a large party saying things that they then are made to apologize for which should be a pretty good indicator of what is well-supported by the rest of the party.

Sources for Democrats saying they lost because of their support for trans rights please?

That’s disingenuous. It was active campaigning against Harris, saying she and Biden were complicit in genocide and that a vote for either was a vote for genocide. Actively campaigning against one candidate is effectively (if not outrightly) campaigning for that candidate’s rival.

Uh, well, I’m not the commenter you’re replying to but I personally saw it all over the place. You didn’t? There was at least one in what felt like every thread for months.
