Congrats to Joe Biden for winning the Presidency for the fourth time this week

My partner, the doctor, rolling her eyes: tell them I don’t want their claps and cheers during a pandemic, I want them to stop voting like dummies for sociopaths who don’t want them to have decent healthcare systems at all in the first place

Especially white Americans don’t like to hear it, but we got to the “coup” stage of fascism because we didn’t impeach at the concentration camps, cages, family separations, beatings, gassing, disappearances. Fascism’s a pattern of escalation and nobody tried to really break it

Guys. Every single person who’s survived authoritarianism will tell you that when they start abducting people off the streets, you are in deep, deep trouble as a society.

You guys should be pretty worried that people who basically study doom for a living like me are like wait this shit is off the charts of even our worst predictions

guys as a survivor of authoritarianism I think you are in way deeper shit than you know, this bizarre RNC family business cult of hate is exactly how it happens. I mean *exactly*

Alright. We need to talk about fascism and America. Finally, finally, finally, white pundits are starting to call this fascism, shocked and appalled, as if minorities and women haven’t been saying this for years.

You will not get another chance at this, trust me. You are lucky to have this one. You take on the fascists now, you assume your responsibilities culturally, socially, economically, remove them from normal life. Or they go on terrorizing you in escalating violence and impunity.

If we were watching this in any other country, a head of state declaring pre emptive victory, and calling for the vote to be stopped, the word would be “coup.”
