I’m getting tired of hearing these “Why doesn’t Biden just be a despot to stop another despot?” knee-jerk takes. Even as a joke, it’s not helping. Once you stoop to the enemy’s level, is there a difference anymore? Think about the kind of precedent that sets. As a country, can you even come back from that? We’d be trading one very dark path for another.
We have a system of checks and balances that can be used, assuming we elect people who aren’t part of the problem.
People need to get the fuck out and vote. Every election, every office, school board seat, dogcatcher, etc. Got friends who don’t vote? Try to get at least one of them to. Yeah, gerrymandering exists but it doesn’t hold a candle to voter apathy when it comes to damage done.
SC justices can be impeached and removed, but there needs to be enough members of Congress who aren’t in on the plan to actually do it. Again, “get out and vote for people who aren’t part of the problem”
