Best chance to change the system is to get Biden in, then pressure a democrat-controlled govt to adopt change. Federalize first past the post, maximum age limits, limit lobbying. None of this has a chance of ever happening at all if the left cote is split and trump wins. If Biden wins, there’s at least a chance, however small.

Spoiler candidate dude, sorry. I really despise Biden and the two party system, but there’s zero choice here, it’s Biden or fascism.

The right won’t have a spoiler candidate siphoning votes in November, every state RNC is going to make damn sure of that.

At this point, I’m rooting for the germs.

100% my thoughts exactly. It feels like I finally see the game being played now, and see now I as a pawn fit into their grand societal chess game.

Last week I was severely panicking. This week is different. I’ve just been getting stoned and mentally preparing for the inevitable.

Barring the one-in-a- million chance of a coronary finally killing the bastard, trump is going to win this election.

When that happens, and the fascists seize control, they will be faced with preparing for yhe biosphere collapse via climate change (they 100% know it’s cooking), as well as ebay cpuld easily be the next superbug.

Covid was a sign of bugs to come, it was the first, but will not be an outlier.

And there’s nothing the fascists can do to hand-wave biosphere collapse or superbugs away - not with their firm stance of burying their head in the sand about it. They know it’s coming, but aren’t minding it.

Only the 1% escape this scenario, the richest reiterated our society, by preparing their doomsday bunkers. The rest of us will eeke through society, and you can pick whichever post-apocalypse story you’d like to think will happen, it will probably be a mix of several. My money’s on something like a realistic Fallout, but maybe that’s just cuz it’s fresh in my mind.

Buckle up. It doesn’t get better from here. Relax and prepare while you still have time.

I bought a 75" TV last week and, as soon as I finish my CD, I am going to download a mod-ultimate version of Fallout New Vegas, and spend several months melting into my couch and playing it.

I genuinely want to move there if trump wins. Could someone who only speaks english function there?

It wouldn’t have, that’s true. I just feel that it would have been a better circumstance than that we have now. But I think honestly I’m just reaching for copium right now. This entire week was a dark week in our country.

For starters, by spending the last 4 years training a different candidate to beat trump this year.

But failing that, they could absolutely have prevented that disaster on the debate. They knew full well how the rest of America will react to seeing Biden look like that, and I find it no coincidence that it happened directly before The Supreme Court ruled to overturn Chevron and Grant immunity to Trump.

1000% this. If the DNC wanted to stop this, they could have.
