As we near the moment of knowing that this nightmare will be over, I’m not experiencing the giddy excitement I expected to feel. I feel more the shock of knowing how close we came to the demise of our democracy, and an almost tearful gratitude that we survived.

The reason this race was neck and neck is because over 16 million people (mostly POC) have been removed from the voter polls by Republicans. That is not democracy. The reason Biden is the Dem candidate is b/c Dems & corp news squashed Sanders in primary. Not democracy.

There is nothing to feel giddy about. Same old regime while the same people suffer. Zero change other than the removal of a madman replaced by old mindsets that are now boldly pivoting right. It’s shameful and gross.

Many didn’t survive, and won’t still. Biden is not going to help anyone Marianne.

30 million people are still unemployed, millions more have no insurance, facing homelessness, COVID death. It not over, far from it.

The nightmare begins as we slide back into a shit economy, high taxes, and endless wars.

"demise of our democracy?" Like kicking third parties off the ballot?

Even with all your crystals you can’t read the room.
