2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision for America.

My point is that looking back on it, in the end the only real difference I made was at the ballet box. This year I’m going for the Head-in-the-Sand approach. I’m done with the political memes. Done with the Twitter screenshots. It just riles me up and this year I’m gonna do my best to fight that.

    Right, but pretending there’s any nuance in a 2 party system where one side is right of center and the other side is full blown proto-fascist is naive. There’s no version of history where the Republicans are all of a sudden creating an ecosystem where they support working class policy.

      Oh right, the person i described would never be a republican. Likely not a democrat either, but infinitely more likely to be.
