I try to avoid hyperbole but man, what is the path back
@ImNotOwned Packing the Court. At this point, it’s better to have a different Court under different administrations than the status quo where they rubber stamp everything that MAGA wants and then block everything Democrats do. Any other solution is way darker and ends in civil war.
@RodAzurmendi That would be mine as well. I think whiplash quasi authoritarian regimes is better than where status quo is heading
@ImNotOwned Sit back... smoke a joint... wait for boomers to die off. The kids are aaah'right. Not exactly the most nobel "how to save america"... but it's the most positive I got.
@typingduck The kids are right wing now
@ImNotOwned What is this in response to?
@partlowjustin primarily shadow docket decisions on ftc firing and la immigration racial profiling. also influenced by general lack of faith in the information environment ever shifting from the increasingly negative dopamine silos
@ImNotOwned I’m feeling pretty defeated too but the political calculus in this country can change on a dime. The end of this decade could look much different than what it looks like now (for better or worse)—which is what keeps me going
@logannjgg SCOTUS being so obviously uneven for the next 30 years is what kills me
@ImNotOwned Back to what? The attempt to pull off a Marxist color revolution failed, and it's never gonna work in this country. You, however, can move to Venezuela if you're into that kind of thing.
@ImNotOwned abandon the democrats the way they've abandoned us, join the Greens en masse or form a third party, start from the ground up with local elections (like Mamdani with NYC Mayor) and work our way up. It'll take a while but that undead fuck will have his entire legacy erased.
@ImNotOwned They all found a way back: Italy, 1943 Germany, 1945 Greece, 1974 Spain, 1975 Portugal, 1975 East Germany, 1989 Poland, 1989 Czechia, 1989 Slovakia, 1989 Romania, 1989 Bulgaria, 1989 Latvia, 1991 Estonia, 1991 Lithuania, 1991 Ukraine, 1991
@ImNotOwned Either years of lead or American civil war. Your pick.
@ImNotOwned You burnt every bridge you crossed to get here and you think there’s a way back?
@ImNotOwned have you tried smoking cigarettes?
@ImNotOwned Forward
@ImNotOwned Military tribunals
@ImNotOwned There is no path backward. History is always just out of grasp.
@ImNotOwned The path is update the history book to use examples from the last 2 years, not 50 years ago, so we don't mistakes. It's just going to take, but have start with small wins when we get them.
@ImNotOwned There’s no “path back”. But as @Noahpinion notes in his piece today, wrt public opinion on major issues like immigration, it doesn’t seem like Trump’s approach is locked in as the future. So we need to build something new. https://www.noahpinion.blog/p/...
