    Start getting into a resistance mindset. People have a rapidly vanishing window to organize for what’s coming. Biden or Trump this cycle it doesn’t really matter that much, Democrats and their supporters are simply are not equipped to resist fascism. We’ve reached the terminal end of the lesser of two evils, and it’s going to be bad. Genocide Joe won’t save us.

      Indeed. I keep asking what is the plan to stop a fascist MAGA candidate from winning the Presidency in 2028, when the Democrats don’t have incumbent advantage, and the historical pattern is a party flip, and have received only one (joke) answer. I have heard no talk whatsoever about how to handle a Biden win this year, although the MAGA politicians are signaling another attempt to overturn the election. (My state AG is still “investigating” the fake elector scheme from 2020; no way a prosecution will happen before the election, and likely never.) “Vote harder” is not going to be effective.
