Exactly.
Biden picked a fight with the tech giants, attacking their misuse of power with antitrust lawsuits. They responded by essentially burying democracy.
When corporate money finds a popular authoritarian leader to back, this is what always happens.
Liberal democracies just can't handle a bad faith actor with deep pockets and media power, they're too vulnerable to propaganda.
There probably isn't a peaceful democratic way out of this anymore. The Democrats can't lead an opposition. All they have is legislative and administrative processes, which Trump has already bypassed.
He will absolutely walk over legal orders very soon. After all, he's been granted legal immunity already, and he has set the precedent for granting anyone supporting him immunity.
