It is already way more dire than this. The chance we will see a free and clear election is slim. The only chance is to work to put those in power who can and will understand the First Principles of our founding ancestors in designing a more perfect union. It is not about guns or abortion. It is about reinstating a strong, flexible, properly interpreted Constitution which protects we the people from suffering abuse by our governments. What is happening now is proof our revolutionary ancestors were right - we face the biggest threats from within the Federal Government. But now it is worse as the intersection of governments, corporations, institutions have grown into a huge cancerous disease sapping our creator endowed natural rights. We will need to give these back to ourselves. Reinstate our former revolutionary republic but apply our evolved 2022 moral sensibilities of inclusion to all. Our nation, like ourselves, is a process of becoming a more perfect union.

Maybe we scrap Federalism. It failed. If the voters in their states want freedom it is up to them to Choose.

:). Florida allowed Gates to release GMO mosquito's for betterment of all mankind. My drastic revision of our system finds Sobornost as grounding for law and government not contract law. Berdyaev, twentieth century Russian religious philosopher, described sobornost’ in anthropological terms as a community of believers. According to him, a man needs other fellow creatures to reach self-fulfillment and jointly aim toward the truth. The community (sobornost’), which allows individuals to gain contentment and realization, is the ultimate happiness. It also enables its members to search for truth which can never be found independently.

This is coup consolidation. A bit droll. Bayonets and B-52's for Choice to have birth despite everything. No support of anti-vax stance implied or expressed or even thought somehow CONGRUENT.

The total abandonment of patient gradualism is the best outcome.

Bring it on, wake up the populace.

No, it won't be pretty.
