When I told people that literally every aspect of life will be worse under Trump, I absolutely meant it. Republican poison will seep into literally every aspect of our lives. And this is exactly what I mean when I say "everything is political" to those who only single out a handful of hot-button issues as "political".

With the rise of fascism in the US, just keep "everything is political" in the back of your mind for the next 4+ years, and if you don't believe it by then, I don't know what to tell you.

4 years is quite an optimistic view. We'll see what they will implement of project 2025, this could have been the last election in the USA

Hence "4+", because I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Off to check if ‘civil war in the USA’ is on my bingo card.

I thought that was the free space.

That's assuming that people are organized enough for a civil war.

I doubt that many Americans are.

I think it will be a guerilla civil war if the military supports trump.

This'll also extend far beyond American borders. We're all in for some... interesting times...

In some places like Argentina they started earlier even without explicit allegiance to Project 2025. The ideology is pervasive and poisonous.

With the rise of overt fascism in the US,

FTFY.
