I grew up reading these books too, and playing role-playing games; and programming early PCs (TRS80 Model 3); was in church youth group; and went on to study physics; even lived in then often visited Silicon Valley.
Can't express how sad it makes me to see all of that now associated with fascism.

Stipulating that everything DOGE has done is illegal and should be "unwound", love to hear a positive plan from Democrats about what will be rebuilt and how. Don't need to concede anything good about DOGE: say that was a disaster but here's how we can rebuild a govt of the people for the people.

This man is barely even a formal government employee, let alone elected or Senate-confirmed. A total failure of the Constitutional order, just broadcast & normalized by every major media outlet.
Elon Musk is now presiding over the cabinet meeting. They're not beating the co-president allegations. (And co-president might be putting it charitably for Trump.)
