Like, okay, Biden sucks, we still have work to do, and, fuck, it might make some of that work harder instead of easier.

And in four years, if/when things only get worse, the general electorate might unite around a Bernie blessed demsoc, but what's more likely, imo is they also might elect a much much more competent fascist.

So, like, until then, are we just back to normal run of the mill neoliberalism again? Like a four year long eye of the storm?

Or are we still in the zone?

    By the zone, I mean a sort of social hypernormalization dealio. Like how Trump made the world weird, then we just got used to the weirdness.

    We're still fucked, but this feels like it's gonna gonna be a four year eye of the storm style reprieve from the hypernormalization, long enough for many to become complacent, until we're eventually thrown back into far worse insanity.

    I definitely wonder what's gonna happen with Qanon in the meantime, though. Especially as there's now Qanon congresspeople.
