I’m cool with Democrats killing the filibuster so long as we don’t reinstall it when we have the majority again. It has by far been more advantageous to Democrats than Republicans over the years.

...assuming after HR1 passes thanks to this Republicans are ever elected to any any office again.

I’m only good with returning it to a talking filibuster, subject to override by a 2/3 vote. Going the Manchin/Biden route of simply making it a talking filibuster, with the usual 3/5 override, is simply a form of weakening or elimination.
