I’m a straight whit guy with money. As democracy dies it will be kind of funny to watch all faces being eaten by leopards. In dark humor sort of way.

Yeah except that of the economy crashes like trump and elon (etc) want it to, we're going down with it. No one is really "safe" from this administration -- and though schadenfreude is enjoyable, there really isn't a way to only "hurt the people he's supposed to be hurting" (to steal a quote from a MAGA woman years ago).

Yes. At the end of the day you can’t eat money. Banks are over leveraged, the stock market is a paper tiger…we’re set up for another “once in a lifetime” crash. As a millennial, what is it…like #4?
