Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, this time I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...
We Are on Our Own
From Marc | Our institutions are not going to save us. Only we can do that.

"you wouldn't be saying it was a Nazi salute if somebody else did it" yes that is how context works

You spend years platforming and agreeing with Nazis and the next thing you know people are not charitably interpreting a hand gesture

So far today, we have:

- withdrawn from Paris Climate agreement

- announced 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada starting February 1

- withdrawn from World Health Organization

This is the “stability” you voted for, MAGA?

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute"

Historians: "that's a nazi salute"

Average person: "that's a nazi salute"

The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

i’m so sick of hearing people say that kamala harris upheld her oath to the constitution by certifying this election. the incoming president is antithetical to the constitution and upholding the constitution would REQUIRE the current administration prevent trump from taking office

not voting, or not voting for harm reduction due to *conflicts in the middle east* makes no sense because trump did a whole ass muslim ban in his first term. he hated muslims then and he still wants them to be eliminated today. i’m so confused how we got here. did we read news before oct 2023?

the lack of big picture thinking in the government is something i’ll never comprehend

these are some of the most highly educated people from the most prestigious universities. and none of them foresaw the cause and effect here? that giving up power to billionaires makes you beholden to a billionaire and thus powerless?
January 6, 2025 at 7:07 AM
and if they really wanted power, why would they take bribes and donations to begin with? succumbing to the whims of billionaires strips them of the power they hold so dearly and the only natural outcomes would be compromising their oath to keep that feeling of power that they’ve long given up

and didn’t we have to put in congressional pay raises to entice them to stay in politics instead of going to work private companies?

so which is it? they’re scared of losing their job or they have high paying jobs waiting for them?
