That is the only way for the Republicans to either find some actual morals — and fix the debt they’ve incurred and are incurring — or continue to burn it all down so bad their idiot voters finally feel the pain.

No democrats should save us for awhile or we are cursed to continue this cycle.

The problem is that as America descends into fascism, we need it to not be Republicans to prevent worsening of civil liberties, fiscal policies aside.

Honestly don't think there will be another Dem anytime soon, they're going to lock it down and gerrymander (at best) or martial law/disqualify votes/fuck around (at worst).

Regardless, they have a great system in place in the south they want to create in the north.
a) ignorant voters b) gerrymandered to fuck c) poorly educated (working really fuckin hard to get this in place) d) apathetic (this is already in place) e) to exhausted from working to pay too much attention (this is already in place)

It won't just be "their idiot voters" who feel the pain. It won't even primarily be "their idiot voters" who feel the pain.
"Their idiot voters" will be propagandized to blame the pain they feel on those who are already suffering the worst.

I’m not sure how insulated you are but plenty of non-idiots have been feeling the pain for a long time now.

The problem is the pain never seeps to the people that need it most as a lesson. My solution fixes that.
