If Trump wins, it's not as simple as that. Which means that when he eventually discovered he still didn't have automatic fascist powers, he would immediately fall back into implementing Project 2025, which is why it is so foreboding - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025#Reactions_and_responses

I'm a centrist! I can't tell the difference between these statements!

Trump supporters be like: "Um, ackchually, Trump wants to lower taxes, maybe only for the billionaires, but they can invest that into new jobs instead of paying for the state. Even if he outlawed homosexuality or transgenderism, a next president can re-legalize it!" (The last one was a real conversation I had with my mother about the child protection law of Fidesz, which so far seems only protecting the sensibilities of her boyfriend, who often makes such homophobic rants on disgust, you immediately know the real motive wasn't the protection of children, unless you call childishly homophobic men children.)

That's why tankies don't want to support kamala.

It's painfully clear by now that Gaza is just a trump card for them to whine about. It sucks.

Harris needs to douch more than just help US families. She's either going to rebuild the political system from the ground up or next elections after her will be the last. Dictators are knocking on the door and damn near half of the US is desperately trying to get that door open because they've been brainwashed into believing it's the right thing to do

The entire winner takes all needs to go out the window, it will destroy the country. Electoral college, out the window, it's a stupid idea to begin with. Gerrymandering, out. The supreme Court members should have a 4 years max tenure and requires VERY strict rules to avoid corruption

Concepts like fox news should be prohibited, too. Freedom of speech? Sure, but if you claim to be a news organization you either do your dned best to be honest or you get shut down. Fox news and honesty is like fore and water, it doesn't go together.

Just a few ideas to begin with

Hrmm.. getting rid of the "Winner takes all" thing might actually end division.

They already had that out in Court. Fox successfully argued they’re an entertainment channel not a news channel and so the judge said what they were doing was fine.

I like where your head's at, aside from Harris needing to douche.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

We have to ~~do much~~ douch more!

The results of this election should look like those rigged Central American dictatorship elections. So ashamed that so many of my fellow Americans can't get the mental health help they obviously need.

As an enemy within, we're only mean to these people because they're fascists.

[–] jami@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

Yep. I will be both frightened and proud if he comes after the subset of enemies I'm in. Again.

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 21 points 18 hours ago

He has concepts of plans though.
