I think the phrase "America shit in its milk" is a perfect description. And I fully agree, we don't have to drink it! I once again live in a blue state & hope Gov Pritzger keeps his word to help protect us from the worst of Trump and his ChristoFascist regime. Yet I've no illusions. It is going to be much, much worse than his first presidency in large part bc the American Oligarchy has figured out how easy he is to manipulate & bought up all msm to control messaging to his low info voters. He spreads sadism & hate, they rake in the cash & keep it for themselves-never reinvesting in the Americans & immigrants who made them wealthy in the first place.
It will be primarily online that I seek respite. Home affordability is an issue for us. So here we are in a very red district (Not a single Dem on my ballot but Harris and Durbin. That will have to change.). I'm 45 min from a decent grocery store, even a Walmart big box, but just a couple of minutes from a variety of small churches - all of which seem to preach hate to a crowd of Trump cultists rather than Christianity. I don't need organized religion to maintain my moral compass, empathy and compassion.
Ttump's last stint in the Oval and his subsequent incompetence and violence nearly destroyed us. This time around, he's someone more sinister, a true ideologue, whonwould forcenhus brand of perverted Christianjty and a plutocracy of thenrich on us, as his back up. Ugh!
So thank you to all who choose to write and podcast and YouTube hope and practical plans of action. I won't ever go back. I have adult children & granchildren whose futures must be secured and a planet who the MAGA cult will destroy for a few extra coins in their pockets.
Sadly, I can't support independent authors monetarily. But know that MAGA's majority was actually quite narrow given all we faced. And it just wasn't the billions in self funding and dark money the Roberts' SCOTUS and Moscow Mitch McConnell threw at the election, but the ongoing racism and misogyny that played large factors in Harris' loss.
We need to adapt to an entirely new form of political communications warfare to regain our democracy. So let's work together to figure out & test how to make that happen, even as Trump and his tech bros try to cut off our efforts. This is war, not a skirmish.
