I'm done with this family values charade. I live in a generationally wealthy town that stays dumb, and you have to fight by the local customs. When it comes to the conservative playbook, attack what matters. Their weakness, their idiocy, their lack of intelligence.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

This happened because of you. You protested at TeslaTakedowns and made his name and his company’s product reviled. You protested outside federal agencies slated for DOGE cuts. You barred doors, protected data. You sued and won. You WORE HIM OUT.

Don’t let them spin it any other way.

As Trump pardoned almost all of the Jan. 6th insurrectionists, lest we forget that President Andrew Johnson pardoned almost all Confederates. And in due time, they regained power, framed antiracist Reconstruction policies as anti-White. . .1/2
