    Last breath? It’s the Balrog whip coming up and snatching Gandalf off the bridge in Khazad-dûm. They’re taking everything they can down with them and much of it is completely irreparable. It will never return. The rest will take decades to repair, assuming the damage hasn’t altered our government so badly that we’ll become Russia 2.0 with nothing but one shitty authoritarian after another treating the country like their own fiefdom to be exploited among oligarchs.

      We can work to improve the system over years of working together. We can still fix things, tho the people murdered by ICE in detention camps won’t ever come back.

        The only way that‘s going to happen is to get rid of the vast majority of our politicians. The republicans are fine being fascists, the dems are fine with losing to the fascists as long as they get reelected.
