@BrisVegas the ironic thing about it is, by pursuing such an extreme agenda, the right actually manages to create more leftwing activism.
Not that they care, but they are working against their own goals by creating more leftists and making themselves irrelevant with the youth + people getting older and more liberal due to their obsession with hurting our society's most vulnerable.
They are a minority party, and will keep shrinking as time goes by. Unless they are allowed to subvert democracy.
@d2 @BrisVegas They’re sure getting lots of help at subverting democracy!
media outlets, corrupt judges, gerrymandering, voter suppression, vigilante militias, right-wing sympathizer police forces, abuse of pardon power……ugh.
We need all hands on deck to keep this ship afloat. (searches for life jacket, checks location of life boat….)
@grammasaurus @BrisVegas every time I hesitate to type 'fascists' in a post, I have to remind myself that this is what we are dealing with and that it has to be soberly assessed to be confronted and defeated.
I must put down my old centrist hesitancy of being too hyperbolic, because if you look at the evidence, the right is marching forward with fascist projects everywhere you look.

Speaking as a European living in the US for 10 years now: yep! Progressive policy proposals here are... often nothing compared to European standard.
(And speaking as a Belgian, same goes for chocolate 🍫
