True progressives are the people who fought, clawed, bled, and scraped for whatever progress they could get.

These people are seeing their hard work swirl down the toilet because some entitled people refused to vote unless they were promised the sun, moon, and stars.

It's unforgivable.

Thank you @mjasonhale.bsky.social. You get it.

They are not progressive. They are 'progressives' and too many of them worship the costumes and tactics of Insurrectionists, Proud Boys, and Hamas.

It's time to unmask them.

I think many on the Left need to forfeit the label “progressive” - they don’t believe in progress, only perfection, measured via a backwards judging lens. Everything is, at its core, fundamentally terrible unless it measures up flawlessly with modern knowledge and sentiment

Can't believe I hadn't muted them till now.

The time to have done something about this was on or before 11/5/2024.

It's much too late now. Democrats have lost control of all three branches per the voters' will. The Republicans don't give a damn.

2026 is our final hope.

She seems to have forgotten that she, too, can be wrong.

Demanding agreement, silencing dissent, and refusing to learn amd grow makes you no better than Trimp.

Both used to be worth following at one point.

Now, they're just clout-chasers like almost everyone else with some degree of influence in the Resistance™ movement.

Fucking tragic.

This is not how any of this works.

It pays for them to be ignorant. Literally pays.

Better than Wyoming. 😅

Jokes aside, a mock EC sounds like fun. Even better combined with an assignment for the students to list the pros and cons of the EC and what improvements they think should be made.

Gray Lady? More like the Brown Lady - brown for fascism.

Every student should be so lucky as to have a teacher like him who inspires his students to be dutiful citizens.

Everyone who premised their votes against Harris on the basis of her causing harm to children pretty much loses their arguments here.

Not that their arguments had much merit to begin with.

Children around the world have died because Trump and Musk needlessly destroyed USAID. These are some of their stories.

He gave off major incel vibes.

Suffice it to say that I no longer maintain contact.

Although I did spot him while volunteering at a Harris office last fall, so I hope that he's at least overcome his socialist phase.

It perhaps wouldn't surprise you to know that he's still single at nearly 50.

No woman wanted, nor will amy woman ever want, his creepy ass.

Anecdotal, but the one leftist I knew in real life would speak of women as if we're objects.

He'd complain that he couldn't just put his arm around the waist of a complete stranger who is a woman.

Also called us "females" as if we're wild animals in a nature documentary.

Turns out most so called pRoGrESsIvE leftists are also big on woman hatred. Just talk to some of their men. It’s c-word this, c-word that. And that’s them talking about their girlfriends.

I actually did not know such places existed. I will have to try to locate one in Vegas.

Might be just the answer to my lifelong struggle with thick, unmanageable hair.

This is Fetterman all over again.

His employment with Blackwater will be excused or disregarded just like Fetterman's aiming a gun at a Black man was.

I'm so tired. 🫩
