Idk why I'm thinking about this now, but remember how goshdarn *mad* Republicans pretended to be during the #Kavanaugh/impeachment hearings? Not righteous anger, the kind of mad when you're wrong & just want that feeling to go.

What was that like? Must have been weird for them
No sympathy for these goons here, just curiosity.

I sometimes feel real righteous anger on behalf of my clients. It's a clarifying fire, and I've learned to trust and channel its confidence when it comes. I saw nothing like that in these performances. Just a lot of bad actors
Anger is by definition righteous when it is on behalf of others. MLK expressed it like no one else, calling it a "transforming force."

I've come with some reluctance to believe that this kind of anger is the only path to true justice, to getting us all free
I have never seen any of these people exhibiting righteous anger, and don't expect I ever will. If there was even a seed of sincerity in these performances, it was in how personal it all waas. They weren't mad at Trump's treatment. They were furious to have to *be there*
I mean, obviously these miserable shitheads hate Trump nearly as much as we do. I'd look like this too if my entire career depended on publicly defending a man who constantly shows the world his entire ass.

Anger is a weird emotion to fake, if you really think about it. Happiness, love, sorrow--you *shouldn't* fake those things, but there may be good and necessary occasional reasons to.

There's really one one reason to fake anger, though, and that is to deflect.
As our neighbors die & our country falls apart in front of us, every American has something to express righteous fury about rn. They're going to try to direct it anywhere else it can go but up but seeing as that's the only place it belongs, here's a face to prime your rage pump.
