Super long form article on the politics of water, housing, development, farming and immigration in Arizona where the legislature is almost fully captured by MAGA nihilists and where the kinda-hero of the story is a Mormon zealot who believes in the divine inspiration of the Constitution

We’re fucking doomed y'all

      Well, considering that the Chinese would require a naval buildup that they're presently not interested in pursuing in order to have such power projection, I guess we'll all cook to death.

        don't underestimate the amount of time you might have left

        During those days men will seek death, but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them. The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces.

          Idk, they seem content with only regaining their traditional sphere of influence in East Asia. Plus for a long time there was always a contingent of Chinese leadership that were content with allowing the Americans to protect global commerce on the blue water sea lanes.
