It’s going to be important to remember how this feels if we ever make it out of this. I really hope this spreads empathy and understanding if nothing else.
I did say “if”. But I do think once the orange fuck dies it’ll help. It should fracture a lot of sub groups and cause splits. Thats not to say that will end it, but whatever, and I hate to use this word, charisma he has will will be gone and he won’t be the figurehead anymore. Yeah the conspiracy nuts will feast and blame and point and yell false flag and grifters will continue, but maybe that will drive a deep enough wedge in the whole mass of them that there will be a way out.
In the meantime, act hyperrlocal, protect your neighbors and family, post corn memes, and watch for opportunities to help in a greater way.
