If republicans steal

The vote. If the election midterms flip the house and Senate republican,

I don't want to be here in this country anymore if that happens.

They will destroy this country and the vicious authoritarian slavish right wing monsters and thugs would make it unliveable and dangerous for people like me here.

The policies these sociopaths will kill me if they enact this horrific agenda they want..

The republicans want to destroy SSI,destroy HUD,destroy medicaid and once the safety net is gone.

I would become homeless with no income, than I would have no treatment,no meds no way to control my diabeties or mental illness.No way to buy food.

I'd be dead in short order. Or forced into slavery by another name until I died.

That's the future I fear and it could happen.

All because Manchin and Senima and the DINOs fucked Biden's agenda over and don't feel even a twinge of guilt or shame.

All over perpetuating the myth of bipartisanship and preserving the filibuster they end up doing exactly what republicans want.
Don't tell me they are oblivious to this.

( I secretly wonder this, I don't know if it's true or not,but I can't say it never crossed my mind)

Maybe they are not really Dems. Maybe they're republican plants.

( Manchin gets Koch money, goes to republican events and is a member of the evil ALEC the only Dem involved in it too)

Why on earth would a Dem want to even be associated with the likes of ALEC?

How much evidence does one need to ask these questions?

If we lose the mid terms and fail to pass the voting rights act


I fear for this country and fear for anyone liberal,gblt,female,people of color,mentally ill,disabled anyone marginalized..

I can't live in a fascist country, and keep my sanity. It will drive me into a crisis.

I am painfully aware of the target that would be put on my head being transgender and disabled non christian and liberal.

These monsterous psychopaths hate people like me and are frothing at the bit to take my human rights and the ability to be who I am away from me and anyone else.

They want me dead or suffering and will do whatever it takes to do that to me .

People talk here about fleeing to another country ,and I feel even more trapped.

I have no money or career to pay my way into another country

no work history to look productive enough to any country that would accept me and no country would accept yet another disabled drain on thier system.

I don't even have a passport or can afford to buy one.

These Trumper fuckers are
sociopaths
and cannot be reasoned with.

It scares the hell out of me because Biden is being blocked by a few assholes that appear as Dems but do everything they can to stop Biden's agenda.

I am scared because the midterms are precarious. Ever since those two so called Dems and thier ilk started consistently fucking over Biden I have been anxious as hell.

I'm not holding out hope anymore they'll get with Biden's program and vote like Dems. Oh how I long to be pleasantly surprised though.

Trying to cope with this shit but it's not always working anymore. The dread is back.

Most of the time I can stuff it somewhere,but when I am alone in the dark alone it comes out.

If I avoid the news the feelings get worse.

When Biden got elected I thought I could finally breathe.. and could rest finally after TFG's evil knowing Biden had my back. I thought things would get better and the fascists screwn.

I felt that warm feeling for awhile and I miss it so bad.

I know Biden has my back but he's powerless to do anything.

Conservatism is poison to democracy.
Poison to anything just beautiful or fair or caring.

tweakers in red states who couldn't bring themselves to vote more liberal fucked us all and should be shamed and humiliated for these damn DINOs.

Thier half ass conservative Dem beliefs screw all of us. They should feel shame,that is if they're capable of feeling shame.

I will dread the future until we get rid of the likes of Manchin and Senima and DINOs like them or find a way to work around those fools ,so we can block these Trumper fascists terrifying agenda.

I hope we can GOTV to stop this future from happening,but I'm not kidding myself about what a thin margin we have and the barriers to voting we have to deal with..

Being trans myself. They'll make laws to either be put into reforming camps or execution. I say I'll die fighting first before I let either be my fate.

Manchin and Senima is what we have right now, and what stands between a Democratic Majority Leader and McConnell.

We survived trump, at least I think, so I'm not going to give up should we lose. And, Christ, this is pretty early to be giving up. I don't feel like we are going to lose.

I had to once explain to one that her child's Healthcare was welfare. She was shocked.

She ended up getting fired for stealing from patients at the hospital we worked in.

EDIT-she was also a PK. preacher's kid.
