    At this point, asking a generation or two to be patient is too big of a RISK. There are too many bad actors with overwhelming money and power working against us.

      1000% agree. But I wouldn’t even call it a “risk” because that implies there’s a chance it won’t suck. I think it’s a forgone conclusion where this administration is going and a forgone conclusion that the damage will take a generation or two to undo. And worse, I watched in abject horror as MAGA populism dragged the Democrats far to the right along with them. Fucking hell.

      This is not a “fair” fight any more. We don’t get anything we want by being polite.
