    All the republicans in my life for my entire life complained we were heading towards Idiocracy. Who knew they were talking about their literal plans, not just giving a bad omen.

      Who knew

      Many of us knew. That’s how projection works. Every accusation is a confession.

    I’m in my late 50s and had such high hopes for what the 21st century would bring when I was a kid.

      If anything, they might even prefer for data on suspected illegal immigrants to get leaked to provide right-wing mobs with targets to harass with impunity.

        I’m sure that’s not their plan, because they’re not that smart, but when it happens they’ll claim victory.
