I really have lost my former tolerance for "we're doomed/fucked/it's all over/they've won" takes at this point, in that they're the most dangerous attitudes one could possibly have when confronted with a truly existential political threat (which we still DO have levers to address).

Yes! My posts this morning have a doomer-y vibe because I am very distressed by all this, but the implication should always be that we should take drastic action now. The abyss is right there but we have time to avoid it.

All in on this. But how? Voting for Biden isnt enough. Same SCTOUS is there. Voting down ballot is great. Winning seats is great. SCOTUS is still there.

Well, the President can officially declare six SCOTUS Justices traitors and do what he sees fit with them.

It does. Because money controls both parties. There is a chance that the levers will work but i myself am not counting on them being USED rather than them just not being there.

You really can't come up with a reason why Biden wouldn't grossly violate the Constitution other than "money controls both parties"? What in the actual fuck?
