something they don’t tell you about being autistic is that every character you write WILL end up autistic/autistic-coded whether you like it or not

I cannot stress enough how important it is that whatever you think of anything else, Trump Cannot Be President Again.
The "rip apart democracy and install an autocrat" group was not Ready for him in 2016. They didn't think he'd win.
They're ready now. They're teeing up for a second Trump president. Whatever your favorite current Thing, it would be worse under Trump, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they're going to try to make sure that they stay in power forever, by any means necessary.
SCOTUS basically just said, "If Trump sends the Army in to murder protestors, that's okay. If Trump assassinates a political rival with the armed forces of which he is the Commander In Chief, that's an official act, and there's no recourse."
Anything he can even vaguely justify as "an official act" - including installing people in the Justice Department to support his coup, including pressuring his VP to support his coup - is no longer a crime.
This isn't just me saying this, btw. Here's Robert Reich, lifelong public servant (and yes, dad of @samreich, since I know what's important to y'all):
Finally, the Republican-appointed justices have given a dangerous amount of discretion to presidents — broad enough, as Justice Sonia Sotomayor noted in her dissent, to protect presidents from prosecution for bribes and assassinations. A president already has the authority under the Insurrection Act to order troops into American streets. After today’s ruling, those troops would be under the command of a person who would almost certainly enjoy absolute immunity for the orders he gives them.
This is unbelievably terrifying.

VOTE BLUE!
EDIT: This post is gaining traction, so I think it's important to show you this:
ELON IS INTERFERING WITH THE ELECTION. PLEASE CHECK YOUR VOTER'S REGISTRATION IN PERSON AND TELL PEOPLE ABOUT THIS.
EDIT 2:
IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE.
Please go check your voter's registration and tell everyone you know to do the same! I've heard some states are purging voter's regitration, so please go check!

Y’all realize that A) Doug is NOT a candidate in this race and B) there is a candidate in the race who had an affair with a porn star while his wife was pregnant and illegally used campaign funds to pay her off! Maybe THAT should be the story!!!
