That’s just it—“the anger laced in that ‘fuck you’ …[MUST] become action”—or all the marching, sign waving, speech giving will have been a wasted performative act of virtue signaling unless it can be channeled to keep local, state, and federal government accountable. And everyone had better fucking register to vote and fucking vote because, motherfuckers, THAT’S how we got back into this mess!

"I’ve just never hated anyone that much, or craved power so insanely. I don’t get it. I don’t understand it."

This is where I'm at. I just... logically and historically get it, but on a heart and soul level I just do not understand it.

My father grew up saying to me "absolute power corrupts absolutely" and... yeah. The kind of power these people crave is a floorless pit.
