Quite a long time back, our entire division had to watch a video presentation about group think. Said video went into detail as to how group think caused the shuttle disaster. Nobody was listening to the lone Morton Thiokol engineer who told them to stand down. It occurs to me that the same phenomenon is what causes the GOP to be so skewed. We need both parties working together, so I hope if Trump is defeated the GOP restructures itself from scratch.

Texas hospitals must now ask patients whether they’re in the US legally.

Look man, if you’re still surprised that you’re still getting yelled at by Nazis on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for voicing your political opinion? Then I honestly don’t know what to tell you.

We’re at that point where the majority of mainstream sites/apps are reworking their algorithms to pander to literal Nazis because Nazis are willing to spend an ungodly amount of time online complaining about stupid shit.

Sometimes we buy an extra pumpkin at Halloween just for the squirrels!

I do task for much. A share if you can’t afford money.
This is my “adopted” niece.

My best friend’s daughter. After being evicted from their apartment, cervical cancer, now this.

All the kids are safe, dad was away for work, they did lose one of the dogs, but walked away with the clothes on their backs.

If you have questions, ask. I will answer best I can.

Thank you.

Okay, but there's no such thing as "disqualifying" a candidate on the ballot for President. "Disqualified" by whom?

A felon can run for President. Eugene Debs ran for President from his prison cell.

@ToruOkada Money. I tend to take these things as an indicator of where political parties get their funding. Much like New Zealand repealing the smoking ban for kids born after 2009.

Should we manage to dodge this bullet it's imperative that we prioritize addressing the complacency, lies, ignorance, and disinformation that brought us to this brink. This state of affairs should never be repeated.

Yeah, he's falling apart.

First, he wants a cage match with Liz Cheney, then he wants her in front of a firing squad.

NOW, his mic goes tits-up and he's going to beat people up backstage.

Good luck, grampy.

Many of same sorts of people that currently present as diehard Trumpers might be made to turn on their idol like a swarm of ravenous piranhas if only they can be convinced that there is blood in the water...

That means making Trump look as pitiful, geriatric, decrepit, sick, frail, and WEAK as possible... in other words, as much as he really is - being 78 years old, obese, suffering from dementia, and visibly physically ill.

They may not grasp morality or decency, but they CAN grasp weakness.

I suspect the biggest thing average people can do to reach Trump supporters now is... show them how WEAK, pathetic, and fragile he really is.

If they're still supporting him, they don't care about all the crazy/evil/stupid s*** he's said and done - they've fallen for the "strongman" image: the myth, not the man.

The best way I know of fighting that, of dispelling the myth, is to make the "strongman"'s human fragility and weakness so visible, so apparent, so LOUD that it becomes undeniable.
