    He’s not even back in office yet and I’m already so. Fucking. Exhausted.

      Can someone please set up an AI to track everything he does and says, parse out the important bits, and give us the rundown? Then he can yell into the void all he wants and we can keep our sanity while staying informed.

      Get off of social media?

      If anything, these elections should teach us that we shouldn’t be putting our faith in the political process. This generation is learning from experience why previous generations didn’t care to discuss politics; it’s all crapshoot and we are better off focusing on things we can have substantial impact on.

        This should be teaching us to work at the local and state levels to change the political process.

          You’re right, to an extent.

          The problem is that small-town politics are usually red-dominated; it’ll be a big uphill battle to change their minds.

            That’s why more progressive people need to get involved at that level - to offset the MAGAts who are trying to insert their bullshit into school boards and municipal politics.

            It takes very few people to change things at the local level.

            This is true. It is all about social validation for them. Parroting Russian propaganda to TEAM PSYCHOCULT, flexing and intimidating to feel bad ass, screeching about quasi-racist epithet LIBERALS. Any attempt for “discussion” turns out exhausting and fruitless, as fascists dont give a shit about sincerity or even making sense.
