I bet the state’s rights crowd will love this
“not like that”
Honestly I’d feel safer if we reduce the power of the federal government and put the power to the states. Sorry left-leaning people in red states, can’t let states like yours drag the country down with you.
As someone in a swing state, I’d be ok with that. Make the US like the EU.
For one thing, every 4 years residents of swing states get relentlessly harassed and it fucking sucks. But also It’s so so much easier to make changes on a smaller local level without the influence of distant populations. Sure it would suck in some ways and for some states, but maybe if each state only had to convince a few thousand people to do better, rather than literally millions (presidential election, very demoralizing), swing states would be more left leaning.
And if not, well it would probably be a lot easier to move states than move countries, even if they were EU style countries.
No concrete plans yet but we’ll see what they can do. Good to see that some people haven’t given up all hope.
California should just separate from Fed
A constitutional crisis is very likely over the next 4 years. And if it does, all bets are off.
The crisis already happened when the SC declared the President a dictator and Biden didn’t have them executed for it with the powers they just gave him.
Technically they said Presidents and Former Presidents cannot be prosecuted for it, not give them the authority to. You still have to find a “yes-man” to obey those orders. Biden can try, tell the military to kill SCOTUS members for treason, they say “Sorry Mr. President No-can-do”. Biden might be immune for trying to do it.
*keyword “might” be, but Scotus can say “that was not an official act”
He could have asked for volunteers. I know one person.
Do not give up hope. Don’t stop trying to make the world a better place. As long as we have people that take action, we still have hope.
I still have hope… just not for America. I can make somewhere else better.
I’m done, y’all can have hope. My hope was deleted long ago.
I’m prone to thinking like that too, but what keeps me from staying that way is the knowledge that that’s exactly what the fascists want. So fuck em, it may be illogical but they can pry my belief that we can build a better world from my cold dead hands.
Fighting fascism is a great cause to rally behind and give people purpose.
We need your help.
I’ve done nothing useful or transformative.
If nothing else, save a little for the next vote in 2 years. We can’t afford to lose you.
True, at least the magas don’t have full control of every state government.
Thats the small hope I’m hanging on to. Federalism might save our country from fascism. Hopefully…
It will do the exact same thing that happened last time:
Create a civil war.
As the good option.
