      The authoritarians are already in power. Student antiwar demonstrations are being crushed by the police, border detentions are up, labor demonstrations have been crushed just a few short years ago and there is an active campaign to control media sources.

        The opposing party has signaled that harassing and detaining protesters isn’t enough, they want them KILLED.

        Is that just absent in your mind?

            Encouraging people not to vote for Biden is the most effective way to help Trump win. No amount of mental gymnastics changes this fact.

              running any other candidate is the most effective way to prevent a trump win. there are no mental gymnastics here.

              instead of exchanging pithy remarks, why not talk about what youre worried about? do you think trump will accept being declared the loser?
