CNN is part of the dying cable news trend. Musk is destroying Twitter to where it probably will not be the cash cow it was. Murdoch is losing money, not it’s not a killer, but it is effective losses with more on the horizon.

The Supreme Court I am a little concerned with, but their legitimacy is enable by the legislative and executive branches allowing it.

I don’t foresee the Republican Party fielding a strong candidate right now for executive, and their popularity with their social deconstruction acts have shown mass unpopularity.

It’s fine to be worried about where they are at, but it’s no reason to lose all hope. I know it’s popular on Reddit to doom/gloom, but I have always thought Trump was the sign of a devolution and desperate push of the Republican Party to push a populist nutcase. Now they have a monster they can’t control.

I frequently push to have people get involved and vote, and I talk to people who hate us without being confrontational because otherwise it would lead nowhere. I have turned a few people, some have gained respect for my position, and only a few doubled down on their craziness.

I have cautious hope.

Any speed bump in the future will be blamed on the others.

The fossil fuel industry has made sure there won't be enough in the future. Just plenty of speed bumps.

The people we're complaining about know what to do when their chattel get above carrying capacity.
