Legends say that the civilization ended during the cold war after the cuban missile crisis went hot, what you are experiencing is merely a simulation.

  • Democrats getting both houses of congress is not implausable, assuming we still have elections in the future.

    Packing the supreme court isnt hard, just need the democrats to find their spine. And they could just rebrand it as “Balancing The Court” for PR purposes.

    Now finding the states that add up to 270 electoral votes to join the i reinstate conpact, that is the biggest hurdle, but the downballot effect should win enough state legislatures if democrats win congress. Right now we’re 77% of the way there. One reason I speculate why they remaing swing states havent joined is becauss they want to wait until theres a friendly congress and supreme court before trying, because there will be legal challenges to it. If congress and supreme court are in control, then I could see swing states quickly joining the interstate compact in rapid succession.


  • We can kinda get rid of it via National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

    First democrats need a majority in both houses in congress, as well as packing the court with more liberal judges.

    Then have enough states with the required electoral vote threshold join the interstate compact.

    Then have congress approve of it.

    Then get the supreme court (now with liberal majority) uphold the interstate compact and rule that subsequent congressional sessions cannot revoke it. (Its currently implied that congressional approval of interstate compacts cannot be revoked, but has never been court tested)

    Voila, you get popular vote. For as long as states dont start leaving the interstate compact. But at least you dont need 3/4th of state legislatures.









  • He’s gonna try, I doubt he can convince the military to do anything to high ranking democratic officials.

    Maybe if a “lower ranking” democratic congressperson like AOC do a BLM protest in Washington D.C, she might get harassed by the capitol police, but they’ll be fine. I doubt she’ll get shot.

    The average civillian, however, if you still have any yard signs indicating that you support any democratic candidates, you might wanna take those down, because you might randonly get investigated for whatever trumped-up (pun intended) charges they invent. Or get a no-knock raid and ends with buller holes in your skull.

    If you look “Mexican” to them, you could get deported if you don’t have your papers with you, even if you are legal, or even a citizen. (Might wanna look into getting a fireproof safe to store those documents, also keep photo backups of any documents that prove that you are here legally)







  • Bruh, she is not gonna win.

    I don’t mean to be a bigot when I say this, but I doubt America is willing to elect black/brown/hispanic women yet. White rage is still going strong. This country is gonna need someone who is a chistian straight white man on the top of the democraric ticket. A younger Bernie. I feel disgusted to say this but it’s what has to be done to save democracy in the US.

    You know, as an Asian American, I would like to see someone like Andrew Yang to become president, you know what I mean. He’s decent guy. But like thats so unrealistic in this country. Sometimes you just gotta accept this harsh reality.

    Unless you find someone like Obama. Well even then, honestly I doubt someone like Obama could even win in today’s political climate.
