apparently this person thinks that if you don't buy into democratic politics you have a psychiatric disorder known as Trump Derangement Syndrome he's just the "good cop" in the playbook, and most likely he's going to be their "grey man" because it looks like they are shaping up for triggering a full out civil war between blue states and red states, big security exercise for securing the Capitol just yesterday which means they are probably banking on stealing the house and from there refusing to sign Trump into office and probably lots of false flags from their BLMs and Antifas and Proud Boys to proclaim a state of emergency, just like Hitler did after Kristalnacht
So sad this situation, but that's the reality. I hope not much people get hurt
sad to be so blinded by propaganda but the incurious are lambs to the slaughter and so shall they perish
i'm still optimistic, but i live with someone who is receiving the "left" brainwashing while i'm receiving the "right" propaganda. the same youtube/news algorithms that serve me right-wing feel good content of Trump in garbage costumes are serving him "trump is leaning into hateful Puerto Rico 'garbage' rhetoric ", "'gilded age' is dog whistle rascism", "educate your friends about the red-wave phenomenon on election day", "it's going to look like republicans are winning until all the ballots are counted later". the paranoid part of me says, the state will claim Harris winner, use either AI generated or real violence to declare Emergency orders to implement social medai crackdowns and then social/environmental credit system. then US will finally once again be a colony of some elite group if it wasn't already. the good news is that NOSTR & bitcoin will be on fire in that scenario!
