I am very nervous that the main US political outcomes of 2020 will be a reduction in free speech and expansion of executive powers.



In other news, the US has been downgraded to “flawed democracy”

By The Economist, so it means nothing.


What's wrong with The Economist? Whom do you trust?


That happens basically every election. We've been slipping in free speech freedoms in various indexes for 20 years now, and that has been regardless of who is in office.


Seems like a lot of people like that idea, what a shame
