    Honestly, they probably won’t.

    Why?

    Because that’s a non-partisan red line that would initiate an actual violent revolution. They’ll back off from doing it so they can keep dismantling our democracy and filling their wallets without us getting in the way. Because Americans are just awake enough to notice cuts to SS but asleep enough not to notice our democracy dying and the age of the oligarch being ushered in.

    Considering 1/3 of the people voted for Trump and 1/3 of the people didn’t care enough to vote, and the remaining 1/3 vote for spineless slugs, I say America deserves anything Trump and Musk do to them.

    It could have been avoided.

    When all of this shit-show passes, and it will, I hope we remember to pass a law that taxes billionaires to re-fund a new and vastly improved social safety net.

    And US, make it an amendment to your constitution so that it’s harder to get rid of when the next bunch of greedy fucks come along
