Asked why Trump was still on stage, Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung told CNN, “He’s here for the people. Not like loser Kamala Harris.”

How are we in such a shitty timeline that childish name calling is just unremarkable? Every trump supporter should be ashamed of themselves.

I’m going to guess

  • poor media coverage
  • media is explicitly hostile to protests and pro trump/right-wing-extremism
  • many people are living paycheck to paycheck + we have minimal labor protection
  • years of left-wing organizations being kneecapped (eg: the murder of fred hampton)

A lot of people are angry but there’s not really much organization. As much as I would love someone to take 50,000 of their closest friends, march down to DC, and shoot every republican in the head, without years of organizing that’s just a fantasy. Unfortunately, the right wing has been doing years of organizing and it’s now bearing fruit for them.

“They asked Nikki Haley supporters to line up in the middle of the auditorium and were booed and screamed at by the Trump supporters.”

Wage theft is bigger than all other theft, but far fewer people are dragged onto the sidewalk and strangled to death for it. Maybe that should change.

Hmmm disagree. If someone’s politics are violence, and they have a serious path to enacting them, it’s self defense. Self defense is generally acceptable.

I don’t want to politely walk into a concentration camp because a bunch of people in states I don’t even live in voted to exterminate the queers and their friends.

Also anyone who’s going to say “Gay marriage is violence against society” is an asshole and wrong. Anyone who says abortion is murder but isn’t doing jack fuck to help living humans is not worth listening to. Just to preempt the “well they think the same about you!” nonsense.

A 2021 report from the Congressional Budget Office indicated that the $80 billion in added IRS funding over 10 years would yield approximately $200 billion in added tax revenue without raising taxes. The Biden administration this week said $140 billion would be added to the debt over a decade due to the cuts, per the Washington Post.

Anyone who says republicans are good at the budget and national debt should be laughed out of the room.

They are the worst of people and I pray that saint luigi will visit them.

If those Internet duds that get mad about black people in video games spent like half that energy being mad about, like, wage theft, we’d be so much better off.

Republicans have a lot of blood on their hands and we should stop treating them as reasonable adults.
