re: Fare the well, Friends - Parting thoughts

I think you are right about dems going forward. The "pandemic voting" model isnt going anywhere and will keep them in power. Our elections mean nothing.

Conservative political voice has now been labeled "terror" and very quickly, moderate democrat voices will be silenced as well. Democrats who are true "liberals" who value free speech, free exercise of religion, Second amendment rights, and so on are happy now, but will rue this moment in history. They are next.

And I really dont see a way to undo what's been done. We live in a dictatorship, not autocratic, but a single party dictatorship. It has all of the earmarks; the media has been propagandized, opposing political speech is no longer allowed in most public forums, laws are not equally applied based on party affiliation and political power, and elections are controlled to ensure outcomes.
