    I mean this isn’t really a question.

    He’s doing it.

    In the open.

    And it’s obvious.

    But our country is too pathetic to stop this blatant corruption, which just means we’ll sink deeper into corruption and the middle class will disappear. Ensuring that we’ll be poorer and work until we die.

    This is not the home of the brave. We’re pathetic and weak.

      We’re still holding onto the belief that it might go back to normal, while in actually our lives as they once were are forfeit, and no one gets out of this without a fuckton of trauma.

      Albert Camus, who was in the French Résistance before becoming an author and philosopher, was serious about confronting death and considering actual suicide, and had to invent a whole 20th century post-enlightenment philosophy to survive.

      Our lives from now on are defined by the ongoing attack on society, and the sooner we push back and hard, the less will have to be repaired for Alphas and later dimensions generations. (I want to blame autocorrect. Badly. But I’m not sure.)

      Trump and Musk have turned into Disney villains and deserve Disney villain deaths. For Musk, I have chosen to hope for eaten by hyenas (preferably ones he recently betrayed)

      Though a proper Julius Caesar demise would be amazing for Trump. He’s more of a Nero than a Julius.
