The crazy thing is we used to go after people over rumors that they were communist.
It was as clear then as it is now: right wing authoritarians will use any excuse to prosecute, jail, intimidate, and eradicate leftist values. They despise dissent, and cannot tolerate free thought or the exercise of rights against their power.
They're paranoid, fearful, unhinged, and they're coming for us again with the desperate grasp of a narcissist on their deathbed.
He's not that clever. They kissed his wrinkled old ass
So, the worst people imaginable in every situation. Got it, no, we were expecting that.
I was born just before Reagan was elected. Growing up, I got the mostly mistaken impression that America had some of its shit sorted from Vietnam, WWII, and all that 20th century turmoil. A period of stability. Upward trending society. Reagan undid a lot of that progress.
I've been watching this country die, slowly, for 45 years. This has been such a weird time to be alive.

I'm afraid we're not all gonna make it out of this.
I don't know if this is the tipping point. But it feels like a mountain has fallen, in my heart. I want to crawl away. When I was just getting myself together. These next four years will be hell on earth for me. I'm going back on my meds
No thanks, we have drinking alone with the cat at home.
Don Jr then boasted: “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did.”
Yeah I'm sure he does, you fucking dumbass

I hope it means he sold it because he's slowly going broke and can't hold on to it anymore.
McCormick told the crowd. “I’m running to bring leadership to our commonwealth.”
Hey that's exactly what Anericans need less of. Here's a revolutionary idea: run to be of service to the community you live in. Find out what they want and need. Do some work and get those things for them.
Leadership. Jfc
Is Trump a convicted felon? Does a bear shit in the woods?
