Overview in Breif

Overveiw in Detail

It has become more and more pressing a matter in American society that Republicansm, one of America's only two major political programs has conducted itself in increasingly overt and unabashed attitudes of Facism. This fact has been recognized by experts since before the trump 'presidency', but what has started with trump has infected the whole of major partisan actors among the more conservative branch of American political discourse. These are not small things, nor are they things which impact a small number of people, they instead fully intend to wrest control of government in favor of Fascist dominance for perpetuity, imposing policies across the board to impose the will of a few, and specifically the most extreme and intolerant of American society. If permitted this collective of far-right aggressors will legislate American society into a backwards reflection of the most bigoted of it's offerings, impacting everyone from the single mother to the queer alike. To ignore these facts represent a course most perilous, to America as a whole.

I am relieved someone post about this - it needs to be discussed. This is a plan by Heritage Foundation to force US into a tyrannical theocracy and nothing is safe. They wanna classify all LGBT+ content as pornography legally and since they are setting this legal precedent this is making me fear E. It is my main source of writing and one of my coping mechanisms. I am outright terrified even while in Scotland, UK. 

I realize it is easy to miss this, but this is not just threat to USA it's threat online space.

I beg for assurances if this happens and unless some miracle happens, Trump will do this, but they don't need him any GOP who wins, would do this. But I beg please, that E will be safe that there is precautions for this?

Yeah - I think most people think stuff like this is just hyperbolic, or maybe they think it's real, but just don't take it seriously cause they think it's impossible or something. Regardless it is quite real and the sad side effect of partisan duopoly, the fact America lives in a partisan duopoly like this is all the more reason to take it seriously. The scary thing is in teh partisan duoply having one's own party 'in power' (really just the presidency, but Americans treat the presidency as if it's bigger than it really is) makes the 'in power' party supporters complacent and the 'out of power' party supporters more active. So it's actually a little frightening that people want to pretend it's not a big deal or not worth mentioning or something???

Putting more thought into it, I suppose it's possible some people are just despondent and think there's nothing they can do about it - and I mean alone they'd be right. sighs
