Opposition party? We shouldn't even need one of those. To me, a sane, educated, and healthy society with a legitimately working legal and justice system should never fall to fascism. Period. There should be too many checks and balances in place to allow greed and oligarchy to settle in while rights get whittled away. Unfortunately, the US is neither sane, educated, or healthy and that directly effects the leadership we've chosen to elect. So, now we reap the non existent benefits we've sowed through cynicism, apathy, and bigotry. It isn't about right or left or some bullshit political or economic spectrum anymore. It is about whether you want to live in an absurd world or not. Unfortunately, those of us that want to live in a more progressive, less absurd world are the counterculture now, but instead of getting our message out through the media, music, literature, and other means it seems our voices are slowly but surely being quieted. We've got a major uphill battle ahead.
