The United States continues to cleve into two nations, one Red, one Blue. And, as I keep saying, either we become all Red (autocracy) or we have a National Divorce caused by Blues which would precipitate a civil war of some sort. As proof of this looming catastrophe, just look at this:
That someone would even think this type of bullshit up is a ping from a very, very dark future. When not even fucking libraries are spared from cleving into Red and Blue, yikes.
The worst part of all of this is I struggle, in real terms, to figure out why it’s happening so fast. But it is. There is a lot more cultural and political rot eating away at America’s stability than you might think.
And it’s going to reach a crescendo in late 2024, early 2025 as part of the 2024 presidential cycle. There are a lot — a lot — of nightmare scenarios that one might think up.
But at the moment, I think, in general, what happens is A Republican wins in 2024 and America slips peacefully into autocracy. There will be a lot of gnashing of teeth on the part of Blues, but in the end, all that will happen is about 1 million (at least) smug Twitter liberals will leave the country and setup shop in various beautiful, exotic locales where they will produce podcasts that Poors like me will have to use VPN to listen to.
