Have I told you how much I hate these people? - Mike Malloy. It is every thinking person’s responsibility not to side with his or her executioners. - Albert Camus. Popular democracy anywhere threatens fascism everywhere. - The Scallion. A fascist junta of neocons using George W. Bush as its shill has taken over America by bloodless coup. What will it take for us to stage a revolution and take our country back? - Dot Calm. Drive a hybrid. Leave a lighter footprint on the planet. - Dot Calm.
Like Granny D, I have watched my own beloved country change, and I am angry beyond words about what I see. I grew up seeing America as the equivalent of the movie good guy, the hero in the white hat who came to the rescue of those in need around the world. I have watched in silent horror as the corporations, the captains and the kings of industry, used a comparatively small outlay of cash to buy the Republicans to use as their shills. George W. Bush is the puppet cowboy-king of shills, the proverbial emperor with no clothes. Every day, I watch these evil men legalize, legitimize, and institutionalize robbing the poor to pay the rich. They are carving up America like a giant carcass and doling out choice chunks of its meat to themselves and their cronies. Since the Democrats have been sipping at the same corporate teat where the Republicans have been gorging for the past generation, the fascists are free to do their worst; there is no longer any opposition. There is no one left to stand up for the rights of the American people, the Constitution, or the democracy, which I fear will be replaced by a fascist dictatorship in my lifetime. Wake up, America: we need a REVOLUTION NOW!
maga does NOT care about children. Prove me wrong.
maga does NOT care about children.
No matter what they tell you, no matter how fanatic they are about the epstein files, maga DOES NOT care about children.
How do I know?
Because maga is only too happy to see babies and children in cages. Because maga is only too happy to starve children in schools, physically strike and abuse them, and deny them proper education. Because maga is only too happy to strip pregnant people, fetuses, infants, and children of food benefits by defunding SNAP and denying them medical care by dismantling Medicaid. Because maga eschews vaccinations and evidence-based medical care even where there is access. Because maga supports child labor and child marriage aka rape. Because maga HATES consent and bodily autonomy for children and women.
Let me say it louder for the folks in the back: MAGA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT CHILDREN.
All they care about is making themselves feel morally superior--given the truth of everything I just attributed to them--by comparing themselves to someone they have decided is reprehensible.
maga only wants someone else to look down on so they can feel better.
That's it, that's all.
Wasn't she the one who worked the sweetheart deal for epstein in the first place?

"White House gives SURPRISE DIAGNOSIS as Trump’s Decline HITS SPOTLIGHT"
Dr. Mary Trump spells out the problems with the official, incongruously mild diagnosis of benign, chronic venous insufficiency. As usual, we have to pull out our decoder rings and spin them to "opposite day" whenever anyone in the trump administration speaks: we know that they're only trying to deflect from the trump-epstein story, and we know that, when they say "benign," they mean "serious." You don't have to be a medical doctor to find science-based, factual information that points to the condition being both older than we are being told and far more severe than we are being told. Further, Dr. Trump digs into madame president* trump's weird little confabulation about Uncle John Trump, the MIT professor. Not only was Professor Trump NOT degreed in any of the three fields madame president* trump listed--he was an electrical engineer--but he never taught the Unabomber because the Unabomber never attended MIT. So where did that particular lie or delusion come from? In madame president* trump's flurry to bury the epstein story and in being deluged by more and worse stress than madame president* trump has ever experienced in this lifetime, it looks like she conflated or confabulated Uncle John with jeffrey epstein's favorite brag about having studied math with the Unabomber at UCLA. So, in trying to bury the epstein story, madame president* trump in her panic is actually, perhaps inadvertently, stoking it. If you ever doubted that madame president* trump is in serious mental decline, it's long past time to doubt no more.
"Trump's SECRET LETTER to EPSTEIN just LEAKED"
This is bad. Creepy AF, weird AF, and bad AF. trump knew exactly what epstein was--a child trafficker and rapist--and sent him a weird, creepy, lewd birthday letter. Birds of a feather.
"The REAL reason MAGA are so different from us."
Angela and the creator she stitches explain perfectly how America got here. The TL;DR is shitty parenting: authoritarian parenting creates authoritarian adults, and punitive parents teach children that adults deal with anger by punishing the powerless, that children neither have nor deserve bodily autonomy, and that children are objects rather than people. (Note: being objectified as a child is a major risk factor for becoming a narcissist, especially if there is family history of narcissism.) As a result, people who never processed their childhood trauma grow up to be republicans who steep themselves in hate and rage and who seek satisfaction by punching down and inflicting as much suffering on innocent others as possible.
"Why are they like this?" (short)
This is the creator Angela of Parkrose Permaculture stitched. Again, the TL;DR is that maga never grew up. They're stuck in their childhood trauma, and they continue to try to soothe themselves by punishing innocent others they perceive as being less powerful than themselves.

"Debunking Myths On Farmworker Pay"
Paying farm workers fairly is a win-win situation that does NOT appreciably inflate food prices. Paying a farm worker $20/hr only adds a few pennies per pound to the cost of food--this is because farm workers are professionals, and they're FAST. Humans are REALLY good at picking crops--that's why it's so hard to automate beyond what's already automated. YUM Brands (which includes Taco Bell) doubled farm workers' pay for tomatoes and only added one penny per pound to what they paid--and we all know how consistent and inexpensive Taco Bell's bean burritos fresco style remain year after year (I could eat them at least once a week, definite YUM). So, paying farm workers fairly will NOT raise food costs nearly as much as republicans pretend. The problem is that most corporations are desperate to pinch those pennies to maximize their profits at workers' and our expense.
