I mean they've already done so much damage without being stopped..... your assumption is suddenly they'll come across resistance that will stop them?
Actually?
Well I hope you're right but if I was betting on it, I'd bet everything you're wrong.
Here's my prediction, and you can make a mental note and see which way things go: MAGA will have to be stopped, as opposed to "resisted", and this will only be clear to you and like-minded people when November passes and you get one of two things: In inexplicable red wave (less likely) or a strong democrat showing that gets immediately nullified by MAGA crying foul.
For Christ sake they are saying, out loud, recent democrat wins were fraudulent and that they won't let it happen again. What the hell do you think would happen if they just let elections happen normally and there's a huge blue wave?
"Oh well, the people have spoken"
Give me a break, honestly. You're better off staying offline not only for your mental health, but also so that other people don't get lulled into the false sense of security you have.
Good luck, I honestly wish you well but to insinuate people are being alarmist is not cool. It is alarming. You should be alarmed.
