So far, it only seems to be ratcheting up persecution.
We’re at the point now where the only way out is through. The basic checklist includes staying alive, staying sane, trying to stay out of trouble, helping out when you can, and looking for others doing the same. More or less in that order. There is always a “final battle” when society does a fascism that ultimately unwinds it. We’re on track for that and have just missed our last exit. That’s what we have to look forward to. We’re firmly in “weeks where decades happen” territory, buckle up. Hopefully this time we can clean up properly after.
We’ve been there for a long while and refused to see it, for personal comfort and safety. It will require a lot more temperance, courage, sacrifice, a lot less reactionarianism.
