    Oh come on… Maybe in 2020 you could get away with this blind positivity but at this point you’re just denying reality.

    Keep track has existed pretty much since Trump first showed up, “we’ve” accomplished fuck-all. We did however elect a feckless piece of shit who picked another feckless piece of shit to run the DOJ and together they also accomplished fuck-all.

    Trump is going to get away with literally everything, as he already has, save for some state level civil b.s he can’t use the DOJ to make go away.

    Defeatist or blind positivity, none of it matters. We have no control. You can, as I have, and many others, shout from the rooftops of all the shit we’ve kept track of, but as long as fox news exists, as long as Elon keeps buying social media to control, we will have next to 0 impact getting people to realize.

    Honestly keeping with what I’ve just said, even this means nothing and has no real purpose. I think “keep track” just triggered me. It’s all useless.

      I wish I could tune out. My mental health is already shite, but I am terrified. My state already had a law that just passed defining sex, with this new EO I’m terrified they’re coming after my drivers license. I’m terrified that they’re going to institutionalize and detransition me.

      I don’t know how to balance staying aware enough to keep my self safe without being terrified and exhausted into paralysis.

      Maybe it’s worth keeping track of so when the dust all settles and it’s all over, someone has a real-time record of it.

      I basically agree with everything else you said though.
