In other totally-not-a-slide-into-fascism news, peaceful protestors who had a permit to march were teargassed on the way to vote.

Peaceful march to the polls in North Carolina is met with police pepper spray and arrests, causing outcry on eve of election

The participants in Saturday’s “I Am Change” march had intended to conclude at an early-voting site to emphasize turnout in the final days of the presidential campaign. Those plans were thrown into disarray when law-enforcement officers in riot gear and gas masks insisted demonstrators move off the street and clear county property, despite a permit authorizing their presence.

    Few people want to stand in line for hours on voting day, just to bring home the flu, a cold, covid, and some strange jungle rot.

    Sir, exactly what the hell are you getting up to while waiting in line to vote? Enquiring minds want to know. And, if we should ever meet in line while waiting to vote,...I want you to keep your hands to yourself at all times. Just so you know.

    It's the immigrants and the zombies, the dead and the undead, constantly sloughing off bits of flesh everywhere they go. The larger gobbets are easy to spot, and avoid. It's the little bitty chunks that are deadly. Who touched that door before you opened it?
