In hopes that there will, in fact, be a next election, we need the left not to rest on their laurels. You can't just run whatever candidate you had waiting on the wings and trust that the corny administrations faults will be its own undoing. Pay attention, learn from failures, and actually try.

Reflecting on how we got where we are now, and the best analogy I can think of is the frog in a boiling pot of water. Trumps supporters are the frog, the boiling water is fascism, and the pot is America. If Trump had tried what he's doing now 10 years ago, there would've been uproar in his ranks.

Let's be 100% clear. Banning books isn't just banning subjects. It bans choice. It's banning people from having the OPTION to learn about something.

That's tyranny.

Not people wanting to be addressed as they present themselvesor whatever else trumpets say.

The prohibition on choice. Tyranny.

"Keep Christ in Christmas."

If your business says this, you've lost my business. I'm happy to wish you a merry Christmas if that's what YOU celebrate. But the instant you tell ME what to celebrate this time of year, then you can respectfully keep your Christ out of my Yule.

Happy Holidays, all.

This. Lead by example even when there's nobody following.
Also, courage is contagious. I continue to stand against American fascism in the hope that others will take heart, too.

Government should NEVER be run like a business.

The goal of a business is to make a profit.

The goal of a government is to make life better for its people by providing effective government services, promote orderly society, and ensure public safety.

They are not compatible goals.

When people say 'run government like a business,' they mean cut services, raise prices, and pay the CEO 400 times more than the workers.

Trump is trying to use the courts to intimidate and bully his critics. Unfortunately, we have seen billionaires and multinational corporations being willing to be bullied and bending a knee.

Now is the time for courage.
To stand up tall.
Not to obey.

UHC isn't a political organization. It's private healthcare. The CEO isn't a political figure. He's a private citizen.

So, in point of fact, referring to someone who shot the private citizen head of a private insurance company as a Terrorist is false.

That's all.

Well fucking said
Trump intends to inflict damage on our environment, destroy social services, trash ObamaCare, inhibit free journalism, control the courts…

Between he and Musk, they have the power to control and destroy, to re-write and change the laws and ignore the Constitution

The RESISTANCE must be strong!

It's not the intentional trolls I take the most issue with. People who genuinely believe the opposite of me are fun to engage in even heated arguments.

It's the "left" people who refuse to see that they aren't even arguing with me, but the imaginary enemy they superimposed over me.

Blocked both of these trolls back to back.

AGAIN for the people in back. If you come at me hot for no reason, you act like I'm trolling you when I'm BLATANTLY in agreement, my ally status with you evaporates.

So, at what point did the American government stop pretending to be for the people and just decide to be open about wanting the people to be for them?

Threatening shut downs, musk openly throwing money around like a political weapon...

My ancestors didn't tolerate tyranny. Neither will I.

I'm not a Christian, personally. But it never ceases to amaze me how they manage to always do the opposite of what Jesus taught.

Those who know the real verse sound off. And tell me where that example got lost.

Blocked this user. If you can't have a mature conversation without turning churlish or twisting everything someone said to represent the opposite of their actual stance, go back to X, troll.

If you're not a troll, then you just can't tell your friends from Maga. And that's why 45 is where he's at.

Dear Democratic Party

I'm never going to vote right wing. So you're not losing me to the Republicans. But you are BECOMING more and more right wing yourselves. You refuse to pass the torches to younger, more relatable people. You blame the people you refuse to represent for not voting.

Perhaps I've misunderstood all along and WaPo ownership views "Democracy dies in darkness" as aspirational.🤔
