Pretend this actually is a town square. If you encountered a petulant, dumb bigot or religious fanatic peddling bad faith idiotic nonsense in person, you’d walk away and avoid seeing them ever again.

World: Hey USA how are you all doing since the election ?

The UHC exec shooting and the near universal display of public support will likely do more to dissuade the worst intentions of the trump govt than anything Dems or the media will do.

PSA: If the guy you want to be our next SECRETARY OF DEFENSE needs his mommy to go on tv to say he’s a good boy, he sure as shit shouldn’t be anywhere the fuck near the job of overseeing our armed forces.

Like are you even fucking kidding with this shit? Do you hear yourselves?

Fact check: No one is responsible for the moral and intellectual failure of Trump voters accept themselves.

I won’t live in the bizzaro world where a convicted felon, jury confirmed rapist, and known traitor gets to be the POTUS but Joe Biden is condemnable for loving and protecting his son from these degenerate sociopaths.

Fuck all the way off with that shit.

The people who like to say they’re “red pilled” are the same people who don’t want to acknowledge climate change, racism, sexism, vaccines, trans people, economic data, documented history, or the morals of movies and comic books because it would make them “woke”.

Maybe they’re just colorblind?

All of this.
We’ve been here before. All the pricks who fly the stars and bars and erect statues to traitors and losers to say “fuck you we still think we were right” this is their victory and their philosophy.
It will continue to produce the worst measured outcomes for those who support it.
One thing I think people talking about the threat of authoritarian creep have gotten, if not exactly wrong, not quite right either is to frame discussion in terms of various European precedents.

Those are relevant to be sure, but we also have an American precedent - namely the South before 1965.

Foolish “business minded” republicans who forgot what Trump is looking at these cabinet picks.

this is literally the future republicans want: public funds for segregation academies and religious private schools that actively discriminate against LGBT students or students with special needs
NEW: Private schools across the South that were established for white children during desegregation are now benefiting from tens of millions in taxpayer dollars flowing from rapidly expanding voucher-style programs, a @propublica analysis found.

Look I really don’t care about whatever excuse you’ve got.
Voting for a convicted criminal rapist imbecile who remains the same sack of shit you elected off a game show on the strength of his tweets is some shit on your shoes born to lose tattoo on your forehead A1 rube shit.

The premise of agreeing to disagree with Trump voters is that you ignore your own eyes, ears, morals, patriotism and common sense from the last 10 years and going forward. 1/5

I’m getting plenty of cats. But I’m looking for more about movies, 80s 90s appreciation, bread baking, anti-right-wing politics, ufos, cryptids, Simpsons, good writing, writing challenges, electric vehicles, sustainable design and architecture, and meditation practices.
