I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

I get that the Air Show debate is pointless, never-ending and tedious but do we really have to have the US Air Force terrorizing pets and refugees from above when their "leader" is threatening our sovereignty? @mayoroliviachow.ca

It can be difficult to not give in to despair, but revolutions aren't built on "we're fucked."
In general it’s fine to post “we’re fucked” on your own account because you might feel that way and it might be therapeutic to say how bad everything is, but it’s not fine to reply “we’re fucked” to everyone and everything because that might not be what other people need to hear all the time
