... objectively worse and far less tolerant.

True for now; but how much longer?

My ruling class either miscalculated our response to the election choices they gave us or decided that excelerationism was in our best interests. In both cases they're going to have to double down to maintain their control and that means more facism or another distraction war.

Both majority parties have shifted towards the right end of the political spectrum since 2016 and the dnc's unwillingness to accept the reasons why they lost this election like they did after 2016 guarantees that they will continue to follow republicans in their shift rightwards towards facism.

History has plenty examples of calms before storms like this and my existence at the intersection of several vulnerable minorities guarantees that at least one of them will be popularly scape goated. I have no intention of serving that role and one of my identities affords me an easy-ish path outside of this country.

So the question for me isn't to where but which one and I know through experience that they're all already sufficiently tolerant. whether or not there's a link with pinochet doesn't matter much to me since starmers' few controversies so far already suggest that a pinochet link is plausible.
