My voice is far from large. And I did not want this to be my first writing of the year. But the western state of affairs will have ripple effects for generations across this world. This is fascism. This is 1984. This is Animal Farm. This is a monument to the suffering of old men who got their way for far too long. And the new right hand, who keeps his kid on his shoulders to help soak up bullets, literally did the thing. I wonder whether women or trans people will be first to enter the camps. To those who voted for this, I hope you are ready; siding with the bad guy never ends well. Your movies should have taught you that. "Move fast and break things" is not how you lead a world, nor a business. And a nation is not a business. It will not be long before protests are outlawed. It is already being discussed. Meanwhile, criminals are being freed for speaking favorably of the cult. My 'About' page was recently scrubbed from my website (I added it back) and given how fast things are being atomized it probably won't be the last thing taken from me. But I will not forget who I am, nor who I was, even if I am invalidated of every last conceivable identifier. Spirit above all.
