This is really the worst part of this whole thing. If a ‘normal’ politician with his exact platform had won the election, it wouldn’t feel nearly as bad. It’d still be awful, but not nearly as bad. The fact that he’s getting away with all of this shit, that’s the real kick in the teeth. It’s a complete hemorrhage of justice and it really just hammers home how utterly fucked the system is. There is no justice, unless the perpetrator is poor and/or brown, and that should piss everyone off, regardless of political affiliation.
I’ve spent the better part of the last year trying to convince people to hold their nose and vote blue to stop exactly this from happening, and that clearly was for nothing… I’ve got a lot of anger that I’d love to redirect at this new source of outrage. If you’ve got any insights on developing movements to rally around, I’d love to hear about it.
I’m sorry, I dont know. Maybe we could try to form a coalition, but as always, I doubt the Democrats would want to band with socialists and communists. Maybe we could identify the mechanisms other fascists used to accelerate and assert their control over the population and use that information to impede him. I really dont know. Registering for the Socialists just sounds like it’ll be my name on their list when they are arrested and dispersed.
Organize for what, exactly? A big reason he shouldn’t be in office is because he incited an insurrection on January 6 to overturn an election. Any kind of organization to prevent him taking office would also be an attempt to overturn an election.
If you have a different goal in mind, I’m all ears. But I’ve been crying that democracy and elections are sacred and I’ll be damned if I’m going to change my mind because it’s gone the other way.
Seems to me that an election involving a candidate that is inelligble should result in disqualification. The election should have never proceeded with him as a candidate. Can’t be overturning an election if the election was invalid to start with.
I know that sounded bad, but its not to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power. Its to block all harm going to be done to trans communities and immigrants, and maybe save some climate initiatives too. Its to build a network of citizens to help counteract all the extremely horrible shit in Project 2025. We’re going to have to get guerilla with this regime’s projected iron grip.

It does, we should organize before January somehow.

How many people to knock down a fox News building by force?
