“The United States, just months before its 250th birthday as the world’s leading democracy, has tipped over the edge into authoritarianism and fascism,” Garrett Graff, the American historian and author, wrote in August. “In the end, faster than I imagined possible, it did happen here.”

One awakes to new horrors each day. And it is difficult to grasp – and painful to realize – just how far gone we are, and how quickly it has happened.

    Well that is certainly a take. So since you’re involved how come you aren’t doing anything? I have to assume you’re ok with it. And don’t bother with the excuses like “I have a family”.

        Welp since we’re a lost cause, we’re all the same, we’re complacent, we’re ok with what’s happening etc etc etc then you can stop giving your opinion in these types of threads where the goal is to point out how superior YOU are because you’d never let this happen. Just stop commenting, bud!

        I can’t believe I’m thinking of nixing lemmy.ca because honestly y’all have been giving .ml vibes for a while.
