powerful and poignant words from the man at the mic

Thank You police chief Mark Bruley for taking a stand

when local police realise the feds are "out of control"... that's a situation

Great time for "the right" to split and destroy themselves on the altar of the "trump monstrosity" 😹

humanity needs people who can accept and understand "evidence based reality" from now on. We need to evolve in healthy balanced ways 💜

Great... Nats, Libs & OneNat all in competition for the "biggest idiot" and "most deranged" awrds, not to mention "extremely denialist".

Why should people have to adhere to "evidence-based reality" anyway? (So unfair.)

(Hopefully this will split the RW vote into meaningless shards for a while.)

Hannity is emblematic of the "absolute denialism" that is currently destroying the usa. Their movement is driven by religious fervour and ignorance. A terrible mix.

gibbering idiot (from hell) is sadly the vibe

(having said that, i know it's not the point you were making, and yes it does look like this situation needs investigating and probably charges could be laid. i'm so sorry usa that you are suffering this awful regime)

in Australia, if people call someone "murderer" often enough on social media, the trial can get thrown out of court, because the jury is then supposedly prejudiced. So we are very much, "don't call them a killer until it's proven". But i think our laws are different, even the charges that get laid.

yeh Australia has mail-in voting. we also have an *independent electoral commission* which is highly recommended for anyone trying to sustain their democratic practices.

(srsly this 47 character seems "incapable of truthfulness")

yeh, shouting "the constitution says you can't do that" isn't as effective as people might have thought 😿
