If you think things are bad now, then, brace yourself: it is about to get a whole lot worse. If you are alarmed at the speed with which the Trump administration has set about dismantling every institution of American government and every pillar of the international order, you must understand that this is not just the initial burst of activity, the “shock and awe” phase after which things will settle down: if anything, the pace will continue to accelerate.
The world has never before been faced with such a threat. The United States has handed the nuclear codes to a madman, a criminal, a would-be dictator and a moron, all in the same person. Whatever the purpose to which he directs these powers – to impress his dictator friends, to further enrich himself and his cronies, to seize absolute power or just to watch the world burn – we must hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
Well, it’s starting with ours. It’ll end with theirs.

Damn this is the edgiest shit I’ve said since I was in high school, holy fuck
Dude, I’m Canadian and I’ve been anti-gun since I’m about 2, and now I’m seriously considering getting one. The world we are in right now as nothing to do with the one we born in, edgy is not what it use to be.
