Canadian. Dislike misinfo/disinfo & propaganda fr PH & all political stripes. Concerned about our kids' futures & the rise of fascism. Can be uncivil. Distractions incl archaeology, history, non-fiction & nature/photography.

Glad to follow anyone who's ABC and do so, but miss me with the crap below.

We can see it. It's malevolent and counter-productive. It OFTEN makes wrong assumptions.

In return, I will refrain from correcting the propaganda as I see it & stop tone policing in other peoples' threads.
Trying to engage with some diehard Dippers on here as well, same result: "TruAnon," "sad pathetic lives" "you're in a cult" "Liberals same as Cons" "Liberals are the same as MAGA" [both objectively BS] etc.

We need each other - contempt, disrespect, lies & condescension help fascists 👎

So moved and enraged by the replies to this and was thinking... maybe we should collect them and send them to Chuck Schumer and the rest of the Senate cowards.

Form here, won't collect emails unless you provide them.

There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

I have to hand it to them, it's an incredible bit to publicly lose a game of chicken, admit that's what happened, and then spend the next day lecturing everyone about courage and tenacity

OSCAR ISAAC, on whether he'd return to "Star Wars":

".. Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great."

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.
