Summary
Itās time to reengage with politics as Trump prepares to take office again.
Unlike 2017, Trump now has a more compliant establishment, streamlined strategies, and influential allies like Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos.
Concerns include his administrationās potential for sweeping authoritarian measures, such as Project 2025, and media normalization of his actions.
Vigilance is necessary to counter efforts to dismantle democratic institutions.
What about those of us who havenāt taken a break, but have just given up. I donāt think anyone or anything can fix whatās wrong, itās going to collapse and Iām just now getting ready for it. Why expend efforts on a pointless, lost fight?
Yeah, Iām in the same spot. Iām just glad I donāt have children so theyād be subjected to whatās coming.
I do, itās fucking terrifying.
