Trump’s administration is, of course, trying to speedrun Idiocracy. I think too many people won’t care until their daily life is impacted though. When they go to the store and they’re out of beans, or can’t get a new gas guzzling truck because the price doubled. What ICE is doing is terrible, but concentration camps are someone else’s problem, somewhere far away, if you don’t want to care about them.
I’m wondering where we are on that track. When you want to do something you’ve always done, but you just can’t anymore. When even MAGAts can’t pretend that things aren’t worse.
There’s a lot of stuff you can fix with bread and circuses, but when you get low on bread, things get ugly real quick. We could also end up in a boring dystopia like “Yeah grandma, you’ve told us a million times about grocery stores existing and eating something other than cricket slurry”
You had me at cricket slurry.
