Got this from my friend last night in response to my post about the Great Awakening website. She’s born and bred in Las Vegas, has lived here for 20 years. Her mother and stepfather have gone full-on Trumpian batshit, and they’re not even on speaking terms now.
“I just can't because, as you know, it all hits too close to home which makes me want to burst into tears and hire a deprogrammer.”
I don’t think they realise how close to fascism they are; it seems more like a cult to my eyes. Reading some of the stuff on that site really brings home how deep some of these people buy into it. Christ knows how they come back from that.

you can't. every time you reach to the right they take a step to the right, so you reach again and they step to the right again. they have no interest in sharing power, so why the fuck should we? this isn't a difference of opinion, it's a difference of basic morality.
In the absence of any meaningful political will to fix this shit, we (they?) have to fight them by organising against them by voting in sufficient numbers that excludes white supremacists from successfully running for office. this includes fucking off illiberal, racist shite like the electoral college (fptp) and similar institutions that exist to disenfranchise the oppressed.
