"Let's not be overdramatic, you win some, you lose some. Nothing much is gonna ch…" FUCK THE FUCK OFF.
Those people annoyed the hell out of me 8y ago. This time around, they'll get physical violence as an immediate reply.
The US is now at best 3 years from something between Gilead and late 1930s Europe. Things won't get better before getting worse, not without some (violent) crisis in the middle.
Don't give me any of that "time to roll up our sleeves and win it back": it won't happen.

As the past decade has shown: once you start allowing fascists and oligarchs to infiltrate the political system, each election becomes harder to win than the last.
By now, it takes significantly more effort, money, votes, for the sane side to just be level with the populist fascist side. And this is about to get a lot worse: look at what SCOTUS approved *under* Biden, do you think they'll hold back anything under Trump? Watch as every future US election slides more and more to the right.

Make sure *your* country gets serious about guillotining a few billionaires before they get a chance to pull what they successfully pulled in the US.
Lobby for Twitter and Facebook to get held to such levels of scrutiny and fines, that they effectively cease operating where you live.
Hug your friends who need it (the ones whose existence immediately became much more difficult as a result of this) and punch the next relative who tells you "there's just too much wokism around"…

I am NOT saying we should all just sit and cry our eyes out (well, maybe for a little bit). Just that the only sane reaction to this, is to treat it like 1933 Germany:
If you live in a red state, get out. If you live in a blue state, consider getting out. If you live anywhere else in the world: scream at your elected officials every single time they talk about normalising relations with the US. [Starmer "looking forward to a fruitful collaboration" in 3… 2…]

And yea, if you can do something about the very long list of people and countries who are going to immediately suffer from the US population's deficient education system: help in any way possible.
Punch the next Euro politician who whines about "antisemitism" while defending Israel's ongoing genocide (and trust me: Bibi is already ramping up the camps, as we speak).
Piss on any Amazon packages you spot in a porch, key any Tesla you walk by, take a dump in an aisle at Home Depot…

In the end, don't worry, we are all equally fucked: just like that, the #climatecrisis went from bad, to terminal.
Courtesy of the very oligarchs who brought us here, we now have the guy who will *always* pick "betray" in a Prisoner's Dilemma, as one of the main player in that stupid planetary game.
With every passing year, and every passing disaster, everyone will be more eager to insulate themselves at all cost, mainly by stepping over each other. Be it at a national or individual level…
