I don't have a lot of hope. For anything useful to survive in this country, we need progressives to take over. However, I'm afraid things would have to get much, much worse before that could happen.
I'm doing the whole peaceful, "No Kings", protests, but unless they really, really grow, it isn't going to go anywhere.
Despite what seems to be the case, I don't think the right is winning solely because of racism. President Pedophile won both the first time and, bafflingly, the second time because he promised to make things better.
It was a lie, but it was a lie too many people were desperate to hear.
Giving hope is a winning strategy, but it needs to translate into results.
I'm not really hoping for the Democrats to win. I'd like to see the right (both Democrat and Republican) lose. I'd like to see a real progressive option emerge. What we need more than anything is people to run. However, the people who actually care about the people are mostly also struggling to survive.
I do think there's a better chance of a progressive revolution in the Democratic party than there is in the Republican party. These kinds of flips have happened several times before. I'd like to see it happen again before it's too late.
However, we (the people) have to get a whole lot nastier.
His handlers are starting to worry that the number of maga morons who voted for him have dropped so low that even the steps they've taken to disenfranchise their opponents won't be enough to prevent progressives from swooping in in 2026 replacing Republicans and Democrats.
They are banking on people being too dumb to realize that they're going to have to borrow more than half that money to pay it out.
My son and his fiancee have three fairly screwed up cats. The least physically disabled one had been in a situation where he couldn't get enough food. So, for a long time he would eat anything, even things that weren't food. He has often had bad diarrhea. Everywhere.
I'm hoping it has improved. I'm afraid to ask in case I jinx them.
Because Russia and China were behind the US in Nuclear explosive research, so they want us to start testing so they can start testing and get caught up.
Given the disaster that President Pedophile's administration is for science in the US, they should pass us fairly quickly.
Whip it out and piss on the desk.
