    Once fascists win power democratically, they have never been removed democratically. Not once. Ever.

      Not once ever? Not even when Trump lost the 2020 election despite the jan6 raid on the capitol?

      And yet, we’re seeing GOP reps resigning in critical and contested seats that have been demonstrated to lean far more towards the Dems, especially when Dem-Socs are on the ticket.

      We shouldn’t just vote, but not voting will ensure we never get out of this mess.
