Can we all - everybody, on both sides of the aisle - just agree that people like Roy Moore and those who run Project Veritas (who are also associated with the people that made the hoax "baby parts video about Planned Parenthood) should not be called "conservatives"?
These people are psychotic predators, not conservatives.
Some girl on Facebook created a fake profile using my pictures in order to stalk her boyfriend. A friend notified me, and I reported it to Facebook...who then said that my pictures weren't of me and left up the imposter account. π
So I messaged every single friend that account had with a copy of her response to me, figuring the guy she was targeting was probably on there. He was, and the profile suddenly vanished after he replied to me saying "oh shit, what?!". π

Man, I normally love the New York Times but they really jammed their foot in their own mouth on this one. Like deep-throated it right to the knee.
I'm all for understanding your enemy - that's how you learn to effectively fight them - but this was less learning and more normalizing.
Fail.

I never thought I'd say this - until this year I considered myself a bit of a rabid libertarian where censorship was concerned no matter HOW awful it was - but I'm starting to think that there needs to be some kind of basic limits put on free speech. It has been effectively weaponized by the stupid.
At this point I'd probably support a law banning all comment sections online. (I'm only half-serious but legitimately alarmed)
When did all public discourse become a teenaged game of CounterStrike?
So as more and more Congressmen (and our Prez) keep getting accused of sexual harassment and assault, I thought to myself "jfc if they keep being pressured to resign then soon we'll have no Congress left at all" which, upon further consideration, sounds like a swell idea!
I want a complete do-over. Get the hell out.
