if it continues unabated, if we dont stop it very soon it wouldnt be all that crazy if within a few years election days would be declared purge days.
Purge as in the movies type of purge.
What is happening to this country now is something we couldnt foresee just a mere 3 or 4 years ago. If the slide into crazy isnt stopped it will naturally get worse. Were all worried about Ilhan Omar and all the elected representatives who speak out against Trump. MAGATs are already getting itchy trigger fingers. What will they be like in another few, very few, years?
Trump is pushing into us into a dystopia.

(21,173 posts)I watched briefly about 10 minutes of one of the Purge movies and it made very uncomfortable as we are going in that direction. I can see the orange maggot ordering his maggot supporters to go out and shoot Democrats waiting in line to vote in 2020. And if he loses in 2020 the maggots arent going away and well have a new civil war. Red armbands will be the new Nazi symbols of magas.
