@zacnewman Racists get no quarter, but we (the species) often accuse those we oppose of being racists, when that is not always the case.
That lack of nuance? It's what the forces of fascism rely on. Look for it, and you'll quickly see that it works very well for them.
"We cannot tolerate intolerance." <-- That goes both ways, and being mindful of our own is how we defeat the fascists.
IMO, anyways.
@joyannreid McCarthy is not the Speaker of the House. He may not know that, but truth is, he is Trumps new fixer.

@ExecutiveFunction404 @DavidSalo Exactly. Still it was bad advice. They should have told their readers get out while you still could.
@kel what if the group you are villifying is a racist group
@LnzyHou I believe that is St. Croix between Maine and Canada. Trust me, you are not missing it today.

I am impressed you found the original. I edited the last paragraph out for space purposes. The Jews of Germany 1933, refused to admit what they saw. Later, Der Israelit told Jews to wear the Gold Star proudly.
Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid.
Thanks for Reading.

Here's a smile, maybe even a laugh, to start your day. Reporter is interrupted during his broadcast by a baby elephant.

I wish people on our side understood that by correcting misinformation, it's not an attack on them. It's because we don't want to be like the #GQP, who make up stories, spread rumors, and just flat out lie to get people on their side.
As far as the insanity...I have friends who fell into Q and nothing I said could rope them back from the abyss, unfortunately. So I had to cut ties, but I keep checking in to see if they're okay. Sometimes it's up to them to crawl out.

That moment when Lindsey Graham found out George Santos was a drag queen named Kitara.
It's the economy stupid.
It's the needs of we the people vs. the needs of the Republican Party.
