exactly this

This period under Musk/Trump feels like early February in 2020—when a terrible thing was happening with breakneck speed, and the people paying close attention were hair-on-fire about it while the rest of the country carried on as normal.

Feb 2020 I told my team at work my wife & I were grabbing a little extra groceries because the COVID thing looked like it was going to be a real issue, and the normies at work mocked me viciously. Weeks later I was the one with TP.

Now I'm pulling $$ out of the bank for my safe & ain't saying shit.

Yep. Stacking my cash and stocking my pantry. Just like Feb. 2020.

This is even worse.
All the things you use to deal with catastrophe are being dismantled. Science and rule of law, for example.
They want us in rubble.

Good observation.

If you want a reminder of how fucking badly Trump botched COVID response, we took notes: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2020/10/trump-coronavirus-covid-denial-timeline/

My memories of 2020 didn't go down a hole. It sucked ass.

It was a debacle to be sure … with his own imbecilic idea to drink bleach or to shove hav lights down our throats or up our butts to kill the virus. Dr, Trump was a deadly idiot.

I had this exact thought this morning-- that the last time I felt this kind of chaotic fear and urgency was this exact time five years ago. Right now.

Same!!!!!

Exactly!

and then millions of people around the world died while herr burgermeister meisterburger said we should all inject bleach.

Going to be honest here. So far my day to day life hasn't changed. Doesn't mean that I'm not terrified, but if there are millions like me, the corruption of this administration hasn't broken through.

I knew some things to do to prepare for that. I’m at a loss now.

What are you going to do, Clara?

This time, we are so much better organized, more skilled, more aware of Project 2025 evil plans, & the rest of the country will see that Felon Trump & his enablers are directly harming them. Massive collection action is needed BEFORE the Feds starts violently attacking dissidents to subdue them.
