I was gonna title this "And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice" and then write "Stuck inside of America with the fascism blues again" here, but I'm not sure if that comes off like gloating and that's honestly the last thing I want to do this morning.

I never voted for Trump each time I was able to vote. Not once did it ever cross my mind.

And somehow we're the evil people for wanting meaningful promises that improve the lives that fascism tempts. Never once voted for a Trump and since 2020, never voted for a Republican locally, I always skip the blanket primary when I can, since "I can promise you're not totally crazy" isn't a thing anymore.

When I ask "Why are we supporting these bad polices that Bush started?" I'm accused of being a useful idiot. When I ask "Why did we stop COVID protections and doing tests? Isn't that what Trump wanted?" I'm called a Russian bot. At some point I just learned:

Oh you don't care about kids in cages. You don't care about the 9/11 amount of Americans dying from COVID. You don't care about police killing innocent people. You don't want anything good, you pretend to for votes. You got jealous of how devoted and rabid Trump's fans are, and wanted a piece of that fascist pie.

I give up. Democrats don't want answers and polices, they just wanna be "Not the current evil guy."
