I agree with this. I think we have seen the end of our democracy. I want to remind us all that a large group of religious zealots are also going to dominate our country in an organized way with Project 2025. It is they who will help fire the civil servants and roll back rights and protections for the oligarchs. During the Civil War we did not have that one-two-punch. We were fighting enslavers but not evangelical and Catholic extremists as we are now. When Roe was overturned it brought slavery back to the U.S. This time it is our childbearing women who are now enslaved on “moral” grounds—god deemed it, right? We cannot lose sight of this change which I believe will become permanent and nationwide once DJT is in the WH. This state’s rights b.s. was just a temporary thing. When Roe was overturned it was over. And women all over this country gave up their freedoms for good (or many decades at least) when they voted for DJT. Foolish. It is over I agree.
