Since this is going around again for whatever reason, I sort of thought it would go without saying I’m not talking about actual Nazis and fellow-travelers, who aren’t going to experience any buyers’ remorse, because they’re getting what they wanted. I’m talking about gullible idiots.

Seeing a lot of “But they don’t deserve…” And no, of course they don’t. What the fuck does that have to do with anything? The house is on fire. Pass a bucket to whoever wants to put it out. You can remind them what an ass they’ve been later.

Grim determination in the face of a lot of pain is what's gonna get us through this, not some Movie Magic finish that undoes the stupidity of multiple elections. You're not powerless, but you're significantly less powerful than you were on Nov 5th, and it's going to get worse before it gets better.

This is basically sanewashing, but for criminality. It feels “biased” to bluntly but accurately say “The Trump administration has demonstrated it will break the law whenever it pleases.” So they look for ways to soften it. Just a little light illegality between friends.
