    What’s is a “liberal hegemonic order”? Because what we already had was a democracy, and we were making grassroots efforts to make it better. Was it perfect? Fuck no, but at least we had a chance to make things better. States were brining in Ranked Choice Voting, other states were enshrining human rights where it wasn’t always guaranteed. Smashing it all down and starting over with a Christo-fascist authoritarian government is about the dumbest way to “collaborate, cooperate, and strive for peaceful coexistence.” We’re about to get the Christian Taliban with the most powerful military in the world backing it. Trump is about to give our government officials purity tests and will throw out anyone that doesn’t swear to him (literally per P2025), and he’s going to be stacking the government with lackeys. We’re on track for Nazism 2.0.
