Electing a useful stooge to usher in a new age of American fascism is probably something this nation will never fully be able to come to terms with, and may not survive. It’s incredibly disappointing and disheartening that we have to depend on the shock value of outrageous sex crimes just to get the attention of voters.

In addition to the normalization of rape culture, here are some other horrible things that are already happening, and continue to get worse as we continue down this path:

  • Techno-fascist police state
  • Concentration camps
  • Domestic military operations
  • Open kleptocracy
  • Federalized “elections”
  • Illegal and continuous wars at executive whim
  • Out-of-control, self-sustaining, irreversible global climate change
  • Increased risk of nuclear conflict

I think I prefer, “You enthusiastically voted for an obviously fascist lunatic.” But hey, whatever gets butts in the booths while we still can.
