- pyuser583 1y agoI’m confused, is this happening little by little, or gigantic bursts. Trump just started his term, but it doesn’t seem to be the incremental approach allegedly used by the Nazis. He is, to quote his former advisor, “flooding the zone with sh*t.” A gigantic burst of terribleness, doing a thousand things at once, leaving everyone disoriented. That’s quite different from the “every day a little worse approach.” I suspect the next four years will be gigantic bursts of terribleness, followed by long periods of relief it wasn’t “as bad as it seeemed at first.”
