    But this is a trap. The further we all abandon the unspoken rules that keep things on the rails, the worse it gets.

    The left: “we can’t break decorum and unwritten rules, or the right will do it even worse!”

    The right: does it even worse anyway.

      Liberals.

      Leftists have been screaming at them for ages to fucking do something.

      Liberals refuse to break rules that exist entirely within their own heads.

      If you’re afraid republicans are going to shoot democracy in the face, the answer is not to shoot democracy in the face before they can do it.

      Everyone seems to think that it’s naïve to not do first what we expect the republicans to do once they get the power. But just because the Supreme Court made fascism legal, that doesn’t make it any less fascism to do it.
