Do we live in an age of false empowerment?

2. The bare minimum.

While we were making pink hats, they were appointing judges and locking in stealth candidates (Kyrsten Sinema) to activate at just the right time to derail the Democratic agenda.

Between Senators that refuse to go along with the agenda, a lost Supreme Court and legalized gerrymandering due to judges TFG replaced, I think there is a real palpable terror in Washington that this train isn’t getting off this track without somehow getting enough blue to vote to overcome gerrymandering and save democracy.

I said in another post that I think it is checkmate. I will still do my part and vote, but I feel like we are all going through the motions of watching an accident that is happening and will continue to happen until we see an autocracy.

If we can’t win in 2022 and 2024, it is over.
Maybe doing the bare minimum all these years is what got us here. Certainly Citizen’s United got the ball rolling.
