    All of these sound like great ideas. Wanting all of them to be able to happen is actually exactly why I’m in favor of making sure Trump doesn’t get elected in November.

    protests

    This will be easier if Trump does not have a loyal police force that will fire with lethal ammunition on protests

    unions, strikes

    This will be easier if the people that run the NLRB are pro-labor, instead of the guy who broke the ATC strike back in the Reagan days (which was who Trump installed to run it, who Biden fired on day 1)

    socialist political parties

    This will be easier if Trump’s military has not seized the voting machines, and we still have elections, and congresspeople who disobey Trump don’t get killed by a mob

      Sure, but harm reduction does not need to infringe on critique of the current executive branch. If criticizing Biden is enough to make Trump win, then he has already won. Biden does not need to be more than a union buster for me to detest him, and still he is more crappy than that. I am not saying he is the worst, but I do not hate myself or my comrades enough to aim that low for the role of the most powerful man in the world.
