Summary
It’s time to reengage with politics as Trump prepares to take office again.
Unlike 2017, Trump now has a more compliant establishment, streamlined strategies, and influential allies like Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos.
Concerns include his administration’s potential for sweeping authoritarian measures, such as Project 2025, and media normalization of his actions.
Vigilance is necessary to counter efforts to dismantle democratic institutions.
What about those of us who haven’t taken a break, but have just given up. I don’t think anyone or anything can fix what’s wrong, it’s going to collapse and I’m just now getting ready for it. Why expend efforts on a pointless, lost fight?
Yeah, I’m in the same spot. I’m just glad I don’t have children so they’d be subjected to what’s coming.
I do, it’s fucking terrifying.
