Worry.

And yet there is so many people thinking they will make an exception for them.
"I'm one of them, surely they will spare me as I'm part of the group, right?"

If we're lucky then Trump dies, there won't really be another cult of personality like him. Even now he's coasting on his old persona, he's just a grumpy old man with limited ability to remember much of anything.
Vance would be much worse than Trump, Vance can take orders.

Nobody's going to be fine. Tariffs on our 3 biggest trade partners are going to raise the prices of nearly everything by 25%
Who could possibly have the foresight to know that making things more expensive won’t lower the prices?
If we're lucky.
At least he's not raising the effective tax rate on the bottom 95% of.Americans.... right?

Nobody’s going to be fine.
Not even Elon?
Promise?
Weird way to make the economy better for working people. Hmmm
And just like everybody else, you forgot the Native Americans.
You know, the ones that they're trying to remove their citizenship based on some 140-year-old law that has already been superseded by other better law?
I really, really, don't understand how/why Native Americans are treated so bad. It makes no sense to me. Then their artifacts and regalia will be copied or sold for top dollar. It's insane.
They want the land
Oh shit, why hadn't that come up in my head? You're right. I'm dumb.

One of my best friends in childhood was Duwamish, and his family had it rough. Haven't seen him in 50 years, and all that was forgotten come meme-making time. I'm guilty as charged, sorry.
I think that society becomes hopeless at some point. Ruled by 5th-generation lizard monsters. You can't fight that.
Attend to the health of your own soul. Cultivate your own garden. Buy a gun.
Even if you don’t match any of them… worry
Yep. I'm cis, literally the whitest kid you know, and male. I just bought a backup crossbow.
In case your primary crossbow jams up? Clever.

Yeah nothing is off the table. A bunch of incompetent bootlickers backing an elderly dimwit conman without any serious checks or balances? Recipe for disaster in any number of ways.
I'm not even in the US and I'm worrying. Especially due to the fact that I'm both Moroccan and queer (specifically aroace). Guess I'm not visiting the US at all during his term.
Don't visit us. Don't travel here. They need to understand there's financial consequences to making this country unwelcoming.
This is the advice I'm following. And it's really sad because I was so interested in seeing the US in person for a really long time. Now some scumbag came to ruin it all.
We'd love to see you after we fix our little fascist infestation.
I just heard an ad on a podcast inviting me to visit Key West, Florida, which is apparently an LGBT resort paradise.
Not happening, not even if they paid me.

Guess we're not alone.
We're never alone. Community is our strength. This is as important right now as ever.

Oh, you'll be fine as long as you don't have to work to live. If you are rich enough to live of the work of others.
Everyone else is fucked. The plutocrats are going to make sure of that.
I've always considered Musk to have the look of the Innsmouth about him; pale clammy skin, wide eyes clumped above his guppy jaw. I hope he will be lured by the ancestral calls and return to the murky depths in due course.
Or get sick!

I’m one of the good ones
How did we get to this, I thought the progress he have made would have actually stuck in some people's heads (I've voters). Unfortunately, some people don't understand what the progress was for because all they think about are their wallets and control of others
Poor is the most loaded word here. Less than $300K a year is probably the cutoff.
Always two, there are. No more. No less. A Master and an apprentice.

I'm going to be good all the way. I'm happy being dead knowing I'm not on the same plane of existence as these douche nozzles.
