Genuinely one of the only things keeping me going is that the when the cultural backlash happens and mark my words it will happen, it's gonna be so massive and sweeping that these fucking ghouls and anyone who supports them will be in a living hell. I'm talking post Jan 6th x10 levels of hate.
I'm hoping this is extinction behavior from the right.
It's unlikely.
As a US citizen who is losing hope, I'd love to hear any evidence that a cultural backlash will happen. I don't see it, anywhere. Even people who are as against this administration as me have simply given up and left the country already or making plans to leave the country. There are no warriors.
Hell, you would think that after the shitshow that Reagan had caused during his presidency, they'd be a lot more furore against his legacy right about now. Forty years on, this "cultural backlash" didn't happen. People don't shun and hate him and his supporters nearly as much as they ought to. It's a complete and utter joke.
It will not happen. Americans have given up already.
So that’d be … what, January 60th is February 29th or march 1st depending on year.
What’s notable about those days?
