    It’s really hard to comprehend from an outside perspective that returning to the state of affairs with all the people being killed annually by cops or imprisoned for trivial/made-up stuff is the much preferred choice to the current state.
    Just awful.

    And it’s an still there, but now there is ICE too, foreign concentration camps multiplied/got outsourced, and military is being tested.

    In a country that wanted change, but got the opposite - just a lot more of the same(ish) problems. And they did that by voting.

    I’m not sure any legal mechanism (and there are a bunch afaik) can successfully inhibit the current administration to either just carry on or print ballots with only their names on it. Or just declare a winner without even counting the votes.

    A hungry nation fighting for food is in a bad position for a general strike.
