After the fucking Presidential debate last night, I'm scared as living fuck that I'll be living in a fascist dictatorship by January 7th, 2025.

That fear was compounded with the death of the Chevron ruling by the Supreme Court this morning. US administrative state is basically DOA.

They're out here doing Project 2025 right the fuck now. It's not a conspiracy, it's fucking happening right now.


Honestly, I'll say it, if you're not scared shitless by all this at this point, you're naive, no matter if you're a US citizen or not. The world's largest military being controlled by fascists is a bad deal for the whole planet.

Well recently the news in France had the same effect for me. The fascists won the European election, then our president dissolved the National Assembly. And the fascists just seems to be more and more popular recently...
