Artist, musician, gypsy, craftsman. I like food, board games, and the democratization of the means of production.
Don't get me wrong, it's nice that child molestation is a deal breaker for you, but my issue is that you somehow find that inconsistent with LITERALLY EVERY OTHER GODDAMNED MOMENT OF TRUMP'S LIFE BECAUSE ABSOLUTELY NONE OF US ARE SHOCKED ABOUT THIS. It's who he fucking IS. Who he always HAS BEEN.

all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

To be fair, we are already in the early stages of a civil war, and have been for a few years now.

If you want to understand a problem in the US, don't ask who suffers from it, ask who profits from it.

Civilized humans make up laws about how we should interact with each other because that is the alternative we've come up with to just beating the shit out of each other until someone gives in.

What we have now is the first option in the hands of people who prefer the second. Try to understand that.

While Democrats stand there yelling BUT I HAVE THE CONCH right up until the rock hits them.

I sure as hell don't mean this as a defense of Nazi Karen Barbie, but MOST congresspeople don't read the bills they vote on.

Go look up AOC back in 2020 on being handed a 5500 page bill only a few hours before they were supposed to vote on it.

When AOC and Ted Cruz agree that something is bad...

I love Porter. We need more like her.

Then stop telling people they’re wasting their vote or throwing it away or aiding the opposition.

People who vote third party ALSO vote for Democratic congressmen, governors, ballot initiatives and local offices.

…And are constantly told that isn’t worth showing up if they only give 90%.

I'm used to Jesus being disappointed in me.

You know how a *functional* government is *supposed* to work in a time of relative *peace and stability*. So does everyone who remembers Schoolhouse Rock.

We have a party dead set on restoring the Confederacy, who have zero regard for democracy or the rule of law.

This is no longer just politics

Self defense against a legitimate, unprovoked threat to life is the one and only time it IS morally acceptable to fight as dirty as possible with no regard for the attacker's well being.

The Confederacy has risen and the Trumpublican party has declared war on the Union. I'm OK with fighting dirty

DAMN RIGHT. When the *Democratic* spoiler candidate gave us our own mini-trump, MY state responded by instituting ranked choice voting. Our third parties GET SHIT DONE, and our Democrats actually go to bat for us.

Neoliberal economics enabled this mess. Clinton GAVE US Trump. Your team fucked us.

And look at abortion and Obamacare.

If the Democrats had stood up and said WE'RE GOING TO TAX BILLIONAIRES TO PAY FOR MEDICARE FOR ALL like 2/3 of the country WANT, and introduced bill after bill, week after week, a thousand times over, big show every time, relentlessly- we would have it by now.

Because Democrats are basically that cop at Ulvade standing around with his thumb up his ass while the Republicans are inside shooting up the school.

"But they don't have the votes!" Well, the GOP didn't have the votes either, and guess what happened?
