It's remarkable that rhetoric that with any other society would be perceved as language of civil war is now just treated as just one of those routine things in US politics

It is a civil war where the insurgents of Jan 6 have now in their second wave obtained a measure of democratic power and are seeking a wholesale remaking of the state.

panic! at the alamo @buffaloshuffle.bsky.social

It is constantly baffling to have so much try and pretend this is just another presidency as countries stop shipping to the US and half the economy hinges on Nvidia and AI working out lol
