    People don’t think it’s possible to do all of this. After reading the entire thing, it’s 100% possible, but I don’t think people are seeing this as the end of democracy in the U.S.

    Women, minorities, public education, the environment, work reform, social services and even protesting are straight up done. Sounds extreme, but I’m not seeing how you vote yourself out of this after firing everyone and replacing them with people only loyal to the president.

      Even if they only succeed in doing a fraction of it, that’s still really fucking bad.

        Oh yeah it is. You can’t really vote yourself out of some of that stuff.

          Exactly. We’re still affected by Reagan’s policies that were based on this same organization.

        I explained it to someone as eating a shard of glass. Even if you have to eat a tiny bit of it, you ate glass and your life is worse.

      Much of what Reagan instituted and is still plaguing us was written by this same organization.
