listen we are not having empty wins. Kilmar is back in the US despite DHS swearing he would never be brought back. Racial profiling is down in LA due to a judge's order. Major election wins for Dems in deep red districts. There's a LOT of wins! They get drowned out. LISTEN CAREFULLY!
On the surface yes, I agree there are what appear to be decent wins. I'm looking further through the patterns of what is actually going on and what they are destroying in preparation. (I always feel like a nutjob when I say different things, but since the election, I haven't really been wrong)...
I don't like thinking of those successes as superficial, but deep down with what they are doing... the pardons, the gifts, the destruction of important institutions for public safety on so many levels, destroying so many seemingly "small" things that on the surface don't seem significant...
paving over the rose garden, the plans for the monstrosity of a "ball room" or whatever TF. Seemingly tiny things in the grand scheme... but deep down, significant and telling. Wish I could see differently, but so much as been destroyed in such a short amount of time.
People keep talking about the "midterms"... that is still over a year away, and they are already in the process of disrupting and denying it.
I get it. I do. Been fighting Trump since 2015 as a never trump Republican. But it will be very difficult to gerrymander that much. Especially if there’s a wave election as it is shaping up for. Plus if that is the case gerrymandering can backfire spectacularly. Don’t lose hope. Long road ahead.
And also. Clearly the system as implemented wasn’t working well. Now that Trump has burned it all down we have a chance to reinvent better systems and institutions without being the “burn it all down” party. There is a lot of upside to this if you can look through the fuzz, imo.
I can more than see the potential in the future and have also seen the upside of the damage that is being done in the potential for securing the system so that this bullshit doesn't happen again. The problem is getting to that point. So, I'm trying, and have been trying to limit all of this that
I take in. Problem with it is, I still see and still feel so many directions and possibilities of where everything is headed. Sorry, feel like doom and gloom *insert nervous awkward laugh here lol* but I've had the same guttural feeling since before the election. Honest, I am trying. 😅
I get it for real. I’ve had that feeling since November. But now we see a real battlefield taking shape where we can respond instead of just imagining all the damage. We are having a lot of wins too. All battles will ebb and flow. Remember, ~1,300 days ago we thought Ukraine would fall in 3 days.
Now, Russia is looking really closer and closer to actual collapse (idk if you keep up with that all but Russia is really … seriously on the verge of collapse governmentally right now). Keep your chin up and never give up. Let’s work together for a better country for our childrens.
Kilmar is back, but he's in ICE custody again. They're trying to send him to Uganda because he won't plead guilty to human trafficking. It's both a blessing and a curse that his case has gotten so much attention.
They're getting drowned out mostly due to corporate media capitulation. Thank god for independent journalism. But he cannot silence all of us and I refuse to comply!
agree!!!!!
Nevertheless we persisted. Nevertheless we continue to persist. Nevertheless we persist.
