The weaponization of federal law enforcement, if it continues, is going to delegitimize the 2024 election before a single ballot is cast.

All federal elections are illegitimate. Voter suppression, the electoral college, America's failure to make Election Day a paid day off, extremely frail voting infrastructure, legalized and (barely) regulated corruption (lobbying) and more all worked together to get Trump one single win, but the second time around, even despite all of these things working as advantages to republicans, Trump still lost to a different geriatric rapist imperialist because on top of having wildly lowered popular appeal, he also proved to be harmful to America's status quo.
- And the very same settlers who voted in that klansman-eulogizing carceral slaver imperialist creep are going to swarm this reply(cuz lmao, I'm not humoring shit from the Federalist today) with ALL the pearls to clutch like "buh buh buh don't you believe in harm reduction" trick what harm is being reduced? Hella cops still chalk-outlining my people, liberals done stymied not only the carceral abolition, but the police defunding movements. Why bother supporting them after that? Why bother doing anything to keep the country from caving in? We gon' get mortuary slabbed by the pigs anyway. Ain't shit in this country legitimate, from the elections to the laws.
  
  Everything is broken, so let's allow the people breaking things to break even more things. Then once absolutely nothing works, surely then someone else will make things better.
  
  Yours is a lazy argument from a do nothing slacktervist point of view.
  
  No really, why should I want this country(that mind you, has stolen our history, our culture, our names, our religions, and any kind of generational wealth we may have been able to scrape together during the failure of Reconstruction) to perpetuate? Why shouldn't I want it to fall, when settlers have made war in this country against subjects-of-empire day in and day out, every day of my life? Why should I find common cause with you when you just can't help yourself but bad-faith slander my views second-zero of you engaging with me? That being asked, get fucking lost. Can't wait to watch the house of cards fall in.
  
  Because when people think things couldn't get much worse, they are always proven wrong.
  
  You keep fighting to make things better because they will always find another level below rock bottom. You don't fight for the status quo. You don't fight expecting perfection. You fight to let them know you're going to keep fighting and that you're never going away.
  
  I feel where you're coming from, have you read very much black panthers literature? Angela Davis/Kwame Ture/Fred Hampton really took my hatred of white supremacy and crystalized it into meaningful direction and understanding

  solidarity, comrade ✊
  
  Ture and Hampton, yes; but I never did get my hands on much Davis. Most of what I've learned over what history we still have is that a subject of empire is given two potential outcomes, either death at the hands of the state, or metastasis into misleadership tbh.
