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).
Honestly these people are worse than useless at this point. Despair all you want in private, but intentionally spewing your cynicism and apathy in order to drag others down is the least helpful thing you could do when people’s lives are literally being destroyed as we speak
If you’re one of those people that have defended this by saying, “this is my release valve” or “people can unfollow if they don’t like it” - no. You don’t get to parachute into people’s mentions to spread your despair like some social media Dementor
I fantasize about a guillotine-as-warning service to place on the lawns of corporate headquarter, the Supreme Court, etc for a cheese and cracker party for the public
