I like sugar sometimes. I think I’ll continue to do so, but thanks.

No one claimed your personal opinion was not allowed or indeed encouraged. The fact that you are not correct about a hyperbolic sentence's effects on those who read it matters not, I suppose.

The current sort of conservatism, for sure. PP's party is an ugly debasement of everything Progressive Conservatives used to stand for. It is not easy for many younger people today to know about our formerly quite amicable and respectful political climate in Canada. We need to be careful.

This was all known before the election. A significant number of Americans voted for him anyway, and continue their support . Such a major divide in the USA cannot, realistically, ever be bridged. What is next for your nation, I wonder? There seems to be very little hope left.

Exactly! Why do we need to protect the sensitivities of emotional twits? Hyperbole should be understood by every literate adult. Apparently it is not.

Yes, I hadn’t thought of that. The current regime controls all the agencies that are supposed to be “arms length” and semi-independent bodies. How very sad. Horrendous yes, but ultimately just sad. I hope that everything good can be recovered from amongst the smoking ruins of MAGA, soon!

Even if clear high-def images of Trump raping underage victims are released, do we think that -- beyond an uproar among us (left/Dems/good people of all sorts) and a day or so of media coverage -- anything substantive will happen to him? He cannot be impeached. He will never leave.

Abolish all voting computers, unless they are designed and built by government. It is absolutely astonishing that the USA would allow any private corporations into elections in any way.

Be a real shame if he were to fall into the pool . . . .

Yet, CBS and it’s affiliated media outlets, will see no appreciable reduction in business. Just as with Amazon, et al. The vast majority of Americans know how bad everything is right now under MAGA, and still choose their own convenience over their nation’s democracy, and their neighbours’ security.

No Kings rallies - and much more - need to be every day all day. Protesting for a day because everyone is free at the weekend is a minor spectacle; a constant, unpredictable, tenacious, civil disobedient presence in mass numbers is fighting. It is courage.

A lot of good the Dems are doing! JFC!

General strike. Arrange squads of citizens to follow ICE agents everywhere, including their private residences. Constant, never-ending “No Kings” marches (not a one-day affair). Anything but continue soldiering on like normal, as the country is turned into a race-based fascist state.

Yet, you all just keep commenting, and nothing else.

He is literally taking food out of the mouths of 40+ million people. Yet, still the best idea for resistance are No Kings rallies. Where are the influential social media personalities calling for a general strike? They don’t exist, because you folks are relying on barely surviving until 2026/28.

She is terrifying. Dumb as a stick, but terrifying.

He is correct in one sense: the US will need to get rid of private medical insurance when/if it finds its moral compass, and enacts full universal healthcare.

Start hurting ICE.

What kind of Twilight Zone shit is this? MTG actually appearing moderate? Being all nice and stuff? Crazy world.
