The way forward at this point: Drinking, hallucinogenics, escaping or escapism. [View all]
I see no practical way forward!
Armed resistance is always an option. But beyond that, it looks pretty hopeless to me...
All I can hope is that is gets better with time. But things are so bleak.
People cheered on Al Green, well. guess what? He's gonna likely lose his congressional seat.
I chose escapism. Which is playing word games, going for walks, spending time with family, watching netflix etc.
DC and the State of Texas are too depressing. Sure I do what I can. I testify at hearings. (over 500 of us did. Didn't do any good. Heard some of best testimony ever. GOP just ignores the VRA)
I protest. (Not much of protester because it doesn't accomplish much, except make me sweat) I keep moving.
I help with local elections and that's the only thing that seems to work. Locally, we're doing OK.
Can't afford to leave the country.
The Supreme Court and Trump's heavy hand are just too much to overcome!
I will make this suggestion: If Trump orders a census, red state Democrats should boycott it to reduce the number of electoral votes for red states.
