With the exception of the judicial nominees, most of it is temporary and can be undone in 4 years. This is why Americans are complacent.

There is a desire to get away from the same sensationalism we've used since Carter's election that says "this is the most impactful election in history, your life is over if your guy loses", no matter if its trump or clinton or Bush or obama running. But somehow we all keep living after the result.

So Leaving America is a lot of work, and its not quite worth it to go into exile.
Most stuff isn't and Democrats start moving right inch by inch every time they lose, it seems. If Carter won in 1980 we would have such a wage disparity between the worker and the CEO and wages for the worker would've continued to grow. The crack epidemic probably doesn't happen and the rise of the Christian nationalist in politics probably doesn't happen either. Losing in a blowout and then the next two elects made the Dems lean into neoliberalism which has us in the position that we are in now

The only thing other than a revolution is having a candidate on the left that is so aggressive and not give af if they die or not to take on the oligarchs and reform the govt
The critical issue with this is that elections cost money . Money is both an offensive and defensive weapon.

A radical left candidate wont get billionaire and millionaire donations. Furthermore, even left wing billionaires will start superpacs against such a candidate and ensure a moderate wins the ticket.

National Elections arent won by small donations.


Skipped right over moving to a few states, taking them over population wise and making it as great for ourselves as possible lol
Til this day, im still shocked at the benefits of different states. Just last week i found out that college is free in New Mexico just like in EU countries. I wish i knew this decades ago in highschool.:mjcry:

Yep

It'll def have to be grassroots but good luck getting venues or have ppl hear the message

Capitalism + democratic/republic = billionaires get richer while the working class keeps getting fukd over

I wish the founding fathers had the hindsight to ban lobbyism and put it in the constitution

Yep, we could do that and more across multiple connected states with our population size.


But we don't do shyt but disperse and hate each other. We have zero power after how long in this land?:francis:
