What is their logic for why Biden doesn’t just end democracy right now since he actually has the presidency, unlike their whiney baby guy who lost big last time?
Well TBF they believe that Biden already has. (Or at least started). Trump tells them that undocumented people are voting in droves, that democrats are changing the voting laws to suppress conservatives from voting, you can’t trust the polling places/machines/counters.
Just a note: I don’t believe any of this, in case that isn’t clear!

I’m grateful for social media for many things, but I really think it has allowed people to foster erroneous and harmful perspectives in so many ways. People search for something that supports their perspective, disregard anything that doesn’t, and call it a day.
I was going to say this. I sometimes fb stalk a local gun shop that has far right followers. Many of the things in this thread are things they are saying about Biden.

I meant the part about no more elections that I quoted! Obviously I know about the riots after the elections! But I was wondering about the efforts to not allow anymore elections, like the person I quoted mentioned. Like if he had planned to try to pass legislation that would get rid of elections everywhere before they happened in states, that’s why I was asking what they meant.
ETA: I’m asking because not that I’m burying my head in the sand, as I know he could get elected again, but I’m paying literally zero attention to what he is currently saying. So I didn’t know if he had specifically mentioned this specifically as part of his plans to cancel elections or change legislation about elections or change term limits, etc going forward after he wins. I didn’t know if this was a strategy that he’s telling his followers in order to get elected.
He/MAGA are also telling his supporters that if Biden gets elected it’s the last free election.
My DD is in high school and her English class is reading Animal Farm, so I just re-read it, too.
As a reminder, the story is based on events after the Russian revolution, ideals of equality and the slide into totalitarian rule thanks to the actions of a dictator and his propaganda followers.
Yup. It’s happening. It’s happening to us right now.
