16. Society has gone to far down the rabbit hole

I honestly don't know if what we have is worth saving.

We have a sitting vice president, one of the most experienced elected official to ever run for president. Competent and caring and incredibly intelligent. She reached a billion dollars in donations faster than any candidate in history. She literally has Dick Fucking Cheney openly advocating for her and publicly saying he will vote for her.

On their side is a convicted felon and rapist and fraud that was more than willing to let an angry mob kill his own VP. An angry mob he ginned up himself. A man that personally friends or associates with more pedophiles and child sex traffickers than just regular people I've known in my whole life. A guy that openly courts dictators and despots.

Despite all that those things in favor of VP Harris and all those negatives against TSF, the election is so close no one can say with any confidence they know what is going to happen on election night.

People are selfish, willfully ignorant, racist, misogynistic and incredibly crude.
Because of all that, from "weather machines" to the TSF, Im not convinced it's worth saving at all.
