    This is how things are now. Someone affirms reality and then needs to be relocated so they’re not murdered. Gates affirmed election results. Metrologists mentioning climate change or simply reporting on a hurricane (yes, people threatened to murder meteorologists who didn’t even mention climate change; as though killing them would stop hurricanes). Political offices of parties are shot up until they leave.

    But don’t worry, everything’s fine. All we need is Harris to win. Which is better than not, but, frankly, if Harris wins, I expect rapid and intensifying violence and domestic terror in the United States. I think the best example we might look to purely in terms of action (not motivation) is “The Troubles” in Ireland. Except the US has 65 times the population and more guns than civilians.

    Strap in.
