Civil war in contemporary USA. And the right manipulating the system to give itself perpetual, absolute power.

It's an interesting alternate history novel.

Hahah! I didn't know this one and it indeed made me laugh. Yeah, it's precisely like that.

Same for me. Boost and Sync.

Lurking in Lemmy makes me realise how toxic Reddit was becoming these latest years. I like it here. It feels warm and comfy.

Have you read "Christian Nation", by Frederick C. Rich?

It won't. Sometimes it feels like some people have been reading certain dystopian science fiction and alternate history novels and stories as if they were a blueprint instead of a warning.

My old person traits are most of all posted here because I am an old person.

But I'll add that my old person traits is that I think a living wage should support... er... living, including a place to live, food to eat, paying for services, buying clothes, getting decent public health and education, and even have spare money for your free time (hobbies, eat out, theatre, concerts, etc.).

My first comment in this community.

Hello. I'm just another Reddit refugee (I know, I'm not original). Thanks for allowing these rafts to get ashore, and sorry for the 500 error. I guess the influx of so many of us arriving here now can be blamed for that. Let's hope we can also contribute to keep this a good place. Hey, older members here: any good advice for us to do so? Thanks!
