    People blame this all on Trump which is legit to some extent… But the bigger issue is the slavermaster system that put him in power. Trump is just pulling back the curtain on a fundamentally dysfunctional system that’s not just wrecking the economy and spreading fascism/genocide but literally destroying the planet. Even if we survive this administration, there’s no guarantee that the next one won’t be the same as always or even worse.
