We’re living in a very unstable moment; things are going to break one way or the other. They’re either going to break in the direction of greater justice of democracy, or they will break in the direction of authoritarianism and dystopia. Voting for a normalcy that no longer exists, trying to keep the lid on it in the face of all the rumbling underneath the surface, pretending things are basically okay & we just need to keep tweaking things - all of that will only serve to tip us further in the wrong direction. We will either try to make things radically better, or they are going to get radically worse.

Too late, we've already tumbled into authoritarianism and dystopia. Come to Portland and enjoy the show. Who has the strength and courage to lead us out? Not Biden. Not you.

Only seems to go in one direction. Are ppl who rig elections going to jail? Ppl who commit warcrimes.. Kissinger, Bush, etc? How is the water in Flint, Michigan? Democracy dies in darkness. #DNCFraudlawsuit #ElectionIntegrity #FreeAssange

This is another example of the “lawfare” era we are living in. The one with the most lawyers wins regardless of right and wrong! The difference between a prostitute and a lawyer is that there are some things a Prostiture will NOT do for $300 an hour.

Nice hyperbolic propaganda. Either America will continue to grow more authoritarian, as it consistently has for over 100 years, or the people will stand up for themselves. People can not "vote" their way out of authoritarianism, nor will any politician lead us out of it.

You've been kicking ass, but don't forget how much we all need hope. You can't afford to get cynical.

I feel like you often miss the face that authoritarianism and democracy are not mutually exclusive.

It's your campaign that's living in a very unstable moment. 30 staffers either quit/fired in five months, $165,000 in debt, and 6% polling average over the last five months. The forcefield is not fusing, it's fizzling.

They’re going to have to get much worse for them to get even a little better, unfortunately
