The most important point, however, may be not to overreact to current events.
Maybe the premise leading to that point is to stop behaving like 'my tribe good, your tribe at fault for everything that I don't like'?
Never mind that your tribe's ideology, currently Trumpism, driven by anti-intellectualism, junk science and junk economics, has presented us with over 700K Dead Americans, a recession racked economy and supply chain, and the cherry on top f'ing insurrection.
And if the voters in VA overlook all of that, fuck 'em.
They will deserve the wannabe theocrat asshole they're currently flirting with; though the Dem legislature will likely hamstring him from implementing his worst instincts.
