Let me clarify my statement: America is over. There is nothing worth getting hurt over. Most people here seem to want what is to come. I’m planning to cut my losses if it starts coming to fruition and move somewhere more progressive.
That’s what happens to many authoritarian shitholes: progressives move and evacuate, loyalists remain. That’s how the country gets screwed more and more.
And US is a pretty high-stakes country, so losing that would be very bad.
I will be happy to lay down my life to defend the downtrodden. My 73 year old mom is married to a woman, and I’m terrified of the day they come for her.

Except minority rights, healthy immigration policy, right to abortion, fair economic policy, environmental policies, and a million other things.

Unions, equality, education, healthcare…

Eh, lofty words. Your best bet is to move. This isn’t like the old civil war times. Most people want this, apparently.
