This is the message of the enemy. I am not sure what there is to be done, to say this:
Thereβs nothing that can be done.
is to give up. The only thing that we ordinary people can know is that the democratic party is unable/unwilling to form an effective resistance right now.

Maybe we should double down on capitalism again.
It's the only move the US has used in living memory.

Georgia had both mail-in absentee voting and, especially, 2 weeks of early voting including on weekends. In most places the early voting lines weren't terribly long. On election day most places were short.
Most people still didn't vote.
Some people couldn't vote. Millions of assholes just didn't bother and are partly to blame.

This is a strong reason why I would think it a tactical error to mess with the elections. Elections are the pressure valve that people are willing to wait for. You can do so much harm and all is forgiven if you step down after an election loss.
Take away that mechanism, and you put all your leadership at huge risk, for minor benefit (history has shown they can get their way like 90% of the time anyway, the "left" will barely even say anything about their material goals and let them stand).

You could rise up. Isn't that what all the guns are for?

Anything is legal if it's not prosecuted.
And with a dismantled government, how much can they really prosecute?

Everyone just giving their opinion but the answer is mixed. Some regret, many don't. And it's not just disinformation, people have to deal with their own cognitive dissonance. Just on the radio earlier was an Arab man still defending vote for Trump because "it's just rhetoric" right now. He's willing to say it's terrible rhetoric, but won't come to terms with the vote being a bad decision.

Oddly, the recent thing in LA was via TikTok, but to be fair their knee bending is probably superficial at best.

Well if you love technicalities you should've realized that people who didn't vote at all for any reason also didn't vote for this. Technically.

Time has shown that these motherfuckers don't even care if "the right people get hurt"
As long as there is hurt, and their preferred propaganda machine tells them, they're happy.

I'm not playing that game. Only people who voted get a say. Even if you give Kamala ALL the third party votes (which arguably the RFK votes would probably go to Trump) she still loses the popular vote and the election.
