“Christians, get out and vote!” yelled Trump. “Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine! You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians!” He added, “You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”

Hope so.

Because otherwise its fucking terrifying. And honestly that is the better reaction.

He is indicating at the least he plans changes that voting will not be able to change. At the worst plans to become a dictatorship.

And given his attitude. The later seems more likely.

A Handmaid’s Tale wasn’t meant to be a roadmap.

Dystopian fiction is meant to stand as a warning. I’m beginning to think we made too much dystopian fiction and not enough hopeful fiction. That’s why I’ve fallen so in love with the Solarpunk movement
