The attempts at gaslighting are painfully pathetically transparent. We have to pay our bills. We have to buy food and buy insurance and gas up our cars. We have to balance our checkbooks. How is MAGA not insulted by this BS?

It's so funny to watch them periodically half-ass try the "Your body belongs to the Reich and it is your duty to keep it fit for the Fuhrer" stuff to their base of the laziest people in America whose idea of attending a political rally is to drive their trucks around a parking lot.

Try to imagine a Purge in which this guy and everyone like him does not get it in like the first six hours. You can’t. They’d be the warm-up act. People would limber up with some gentle calisthenics and quartering everyone in Palo Alto.
As always, note that these people are describing a world they want to watch. They think real life is a feed to scroll through, and they want some better content. Never once occurs to them that they might inhabit the world they demand we live in for their entertainment.
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.

One of the great untold and most massively important stories of this moment is that the Right Wing authoritarian movement is predicated on abused people fighting like hell to make sure that abuse and trauma continue forward and even accelerates.
It's about hurting kids and ruining their lives.

My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.
My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.

for what it’s worth I got roped into helping out with my sixth grader’s extracurricular thing so I’ve had more recent contact with middle schoolers who aren’t mine than I usually do, and biased sample/biased reviewer/etc but my verdict is that the kids are all right
