I wouldn’t listen to the everything is exaggerated and it is really just fine. We are boiling frogs.
Our economy hasn’t collapsed, so there isn’t going to be any dramatics like a movie or show
Rioting won’t do anything. The GOP voters and media outlets will frame at as anything that isn’t far right is bad.
In many ways, things are bad. We have large parts of the country completely dependent on cars. One of our chief judiciaries should be impeached. A former state governor actually faced criminal charges for far less than Clarence Thomas has been doing. The GOP is trying to dismantle public schools via privatization/vouchers, textbook manipulation, and gagging teachers. The GOP just might nominate Trump even though he is facing so many lawsuits his nickname should be The Defendant.
Right now, the Democrats far outnumber the GOP, buy the GOP has way better turn out. Saying vote constantly is to use our best defense, overwhelmingly defeats of these people in the elections. If all eligible voters voted, things would be quite different
