Obviously you triggered Scott and the reasons or possibilities are many as you pointed out. There are so many maga followers vs trolls or bots or foreign government agencies trying to influence the election ( or simply public opinion) that it would take too much time and energy to needlessly discern.

For me the issue comes down to this : as you’ve noted, diagnosed, described and warned, we are in an existential crisis as organized psychopaths, sociopaths and malignant narcissists are set on taking over our government and to use it for personal grievance and reactionary ideology purposes. Presently those sympathetic in various red state legislatures are doing their best to dissuade voters they don’t want voting. What does the present, democratically aligned government do if it ascertains that fraud, deceit and intimidation was used to win an election by the other side. Is Martial Law enforced? Do they jail all the sociopathic projectionists? If it was just an election based on the total number of votes I’d rest a little easier but our electoral system makes this the equivalent of the burning of the Reichstag ( sp?).

Oh yeah, I'm not sure I triggered him so much bc he was leaving nasty stupidity for a lot of people in the thread I was restacking. Of course, based on his lack of intellect &/or instability, we all could have been triggering him I suppose.

Yes, DeSantis doesn’t make it less stressful. Its as though each week the state house and governor pass more laws of which sole purpose is to give more power and influence to the wealthy as well as removing local governance. Just as an example, they took a nice college called The New College of Florida, a liberal arts school that attracted individuals that places that care about diversity, equity and inclusions. Where transgender or gender fluid is well accepted and one can take control of one’s studies. They replaced the president and school board of trustees w DeSantis lackeys. Professors leaving, students dropping out. The goal is to make it Hinsdale ripoff.

Indeed there is a great deal to be highly concerned & proactive about. Obviously, it is highly accurate for you to fear such things more in a state run by the psychopathic DeSantis. It's not that they do not highly concern me. I suspect it's just feels a little less stressful in California.
