  • I can only assume you are all bots meant to discourage people from protesting, and others would be wise to report and call out these accounts.

    What does protesting even do?

    1. That’s five million Americans standing in solidarity.

    2. That’s five million Americans connecting, organizing, and sharing resources.

    3. That’s five million Americans not shopping or working that day.

    4. That’s five million Americans being inspired to run for office and support others who are.

    5. These protests are only going to get bigger and bigger as the word spreads.

    Join them, or STFU about how nobody is doing anything.













  • “AOC is amazing, but…”

    I have never understood this rhetoric.

    She is more than qualified, has enough experience where she is out there educating her colleagues & the public about governmental processes and barriers, AND she speaks in a way that resonates with the working class AND younger generations.

    Her Among Us Twitch stream was a brilliant way to connect with her younger constituents and made her approachable.

    She does the same thing Bernie does, going out to rural America and speaking with the working class voters that feel unheard and abandoned.

    At Congress, she ain’t fucking scared to speak truth to power.

    And most important, she has demonstrated that she is impossible to buy.

    This whole rhetoric that because she’s a woman Americans won’t vote for her:

    No. Hilary is a crook and she still won the popular vote. If the electoral college wasn’t a thing, she would have been president.

    Kamala came in way too fucking late thanks to Biden. But even so, her policies were still pandering to corporations and the rich, although it is undeniable she would have been vastly superior to Trump which is why she got my vote.

    Whether America is ready for a female president or not is not the issue.

    America needs someone who will be strong against corporate interests and bring forth universal healthcare.





  • Just went through that with an elderly neighbor recently.

    She broke her foot and is in poor health, so we were walking her dog twice a day cause we are nice like that. She was always praising us for being such good people and a godsend to her.

    One day, she made a comment that she thought Trump was doing a great job and I gently tried to explain to her that he was ruining our lives and countless others out there.

    I was hoping she would have a moment of introspection, but no. She just immediately went on about the democrats, how we get offended too easily, and how she thinks I swear too much but she doesn’t hold it against me.

    Everything except: “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize.”

    Told her we no longer feel comfortable walking get dog.

    Cue the waterworks and the “What about me? I can’t walk!”

    It’s not worth engaging with these people. There is something broken in their brains.
