Gwen Snyder is uncivilI am very, very worried for what the post-2024 United States will look like.
The GOP is a fully fascist party at this point.
If they win big, there aren't enough constitutional safeguards in the world to contain them.
Their war on Black and trans existence is a preview of what they will attempt to do to any and all marginalized people, as well as leftist opposition, on a national level.
I really fear that we are potentially about to reach the point of no return.
During the Trump era, I was very insistent that we needed to militantly oppose explicit fascists in the street and make sure there was a bright line that kept electeds from courting them.
That's still important, but's infinitely more difficult now that the line has been crossed.
And now that we're in an era of social media companies deliberately kneecapping those efforts (Facebook limiting event invites during protest times, Twitter's left-suppressive algorithm), it's also that much more difficult to build spontaneous mass political protest movements.
There's no lifeboat big enough to fit all the people they want to hurt and kill, so we have to be disciplined and wise and find ways to fight here, now.
Even though we are all so exhausted.
These are not easy or fair times.

I have a friend who always has a new plan for where she and her husband are going to escape to. She still hasn't been able to explain what part of the world will be safe if the US follows the fascist pattern and goes to war with the rest of the world.
