In 2015 we were poised for revolution. Two “radical” voices screaming for change. On the left we had Bernie Sanders and on the right Donald Trump. Trump & company strong armed and essentially did a coup on the Republican party. The left successfully squashed the progressive movement because they didn’t want to threaten their comforts. We got Trump.
That fear of change from “the left” has led us down a slippery slope of nationalism, authoritarianism, oligarchy, and an all around cyberpunk hellscape.

Yeah 2015 was a revolutionary war, but the good guys were crushed and the bad guys won. ☹️
