I don't like blocking Resistance people. But those of you who are in my replies and yelling "He's getting away with it all, there won't even be an election!" I'm sorry that your spirit is broken. But I won't let you use my replies to demotivate those who are fighting and winning.
I've never fought in a war, but I know people who have. They'll tell you that if a soldier were running around yelling "we're gonna lose" in the faces of his fellow soldiers during battle, they'd immediately incapacitate him. So yes, I will block people who do this in my replies.
If you want to use your own tweets to spread fatalist hysteria and harm your own cause, that's on you. But if you're so far gone that you think the best use of your time is to jump into MY REPLIES and yell that nonsense at me and my followers, you need to step away from politics.
This has been an ugly three years. We've all fought hard. We've won and lost a lot of battles. We all have down days. But if you're resorting to spreading hyperbolic fatalist hysteria, YOU'RE HELPING TRUMP. You're handing him leverage he doesn't have. Stop hurting us, I beg you.
Many of us are tired, and tempted at times to stop fighting. But some of you have decided that you're going to try to demotivate ALL of us into giving up, so you can feel better about giving up. That's incredibly selfish. If you need to step away for awhile, just quietly do it.
And to be as clear as possible, if you're just feeling down, or you're angry that we lost a certain battle, I'm not talking about you at all.

I'm talking about the histrionic fatalists shrieking about how we're not going to have an election or whatever. THOSE people get blocked.
If you're so far gone that you think Trump is just magically not going to hold an election, you're of zero use to the Resistance.

And if you're so far gone that you feel compelled to obsessively yell that there will magically be no election, you're the ENEMY of the Resistance.
To those of you insisting that these fatalists are all just bots or trolls, WRONG. These are very real people, some of whom have been around for a long time.

These fatalists are our most dangerous enemy right now. You'll only make the problem worse by pretending they don't exist
