    I agree. However, I think a growing percentage of the population is painfully aware how little difference there is between the two parties. My only hope is that Harris will perhaps give us time for the vastly more progressive younger generations to come into power. Also, fuck Trump with a cactus, he is the worst aspects of our country condensed into one putrid sack of dying flesh.

      It could happen.

      I’m not optimistic. In 2010 the Census showed a 28% increase in mixed-race families. I believed this would translate to a much more progressive future, but we’ve only moved in reverse, and the Democrats we’ve elected have demonstrated their willingness to do nothing about it as long as they keep the ability to use their seats for self-enrichment.

      Now, I expect the worst.
