At the present moment, they are trying to do it tactically with the “anyone who is disagreeing with me is trying to silence me, in fact they are literally hitting me in the face (also! Note that I’m allowed to disagree with whoever I want)” narrative – simply repeating it, over and over, in the hopes (probably pretty well founded) that people will start to absorb it and behave the way they want them to behave.

Social media is both a blessing and a curse. Depending on context you might think a little of both at any given time.

I hope you do keep engaging with it. The easy thing to do would be to ignore the alarms, but it's not the smartest.

Your selfless and forward-thinking actions in support of the Democrats, and left wing goals, are plain to see. That's totally the result. It's instantly obvious.

I hope it's obvious I could say the same thing about you, by not pushing harder for better.

Don't worry - even if they were pushing harder for better, the moment they had a chance of their chosen candidate winning, you'd swap to "NOT GOOD ENOUGH" and return to simping for the fascist. :)
