“Facts don’t care about your feelings” crowd just melting down over the plastic potato toy huh.
taters gonna tate.
Thank you very much, goodnight.
Listen I am a traditional guy: my steak is rare, my scotch is neat, and my Potato Head toy is a MAN and he has a french fry for a dong, as God intended.

I’m sure this is just as much a coincidence as the last 1000 coincidental uses over the last few years by Republicans of Nazi slogans, memes, iconography, tactics, purposes, and methods.
It’s a Nazi Party. They’ve been telling us. Daring us.
Unassailable logic here. I think the simple fact tha...

Make them actually filibuster it. Then pass the same bill again and make them filibuster it again. Don’t stop.
Call every bill the “The Reason You Can’t Afford Anything Is The Republicans Block Every Bill Act.”

Let’s get creative.
Don’t use Hoe Manchin as an excuse. Fight. Throw everything you have. Make their intransigence their problem. Get creative and make their obstruction difficult and uncomfortable.

Republicans don't have a crisis with identity. They have an unshakeable identity built around white supremacist grievance.

They have a crisis with reality. They refuse to live in it. Anybody who tries gets censured and shunned, threatened and expunged.
One of our two major political parties is openly proudly fascist. They are fascist in the only way fascists can be fascist, which is happily and angrily at the same time. Happily because they've found their purpose. Angrily because reality keeps intruding.

It's a dire problem.
I'm aware they think they're good people.

In fact, fascists always think they're good people—not just good people, but the best and greatest people. This on the way to believing that only they are people.

That's where they are. Ask them; they'll tell you.

American Fascists.

The privately owned media has, by and large, failed its mandate. Seeing a lucrative demand for lies, they're working to capture it.
Make public the list of people who have betrayed the public trust, how they betrayed the public trust, and what the result was.

If you must bring them on, lead with those facts, then state the reason you're platforming them anyway. Otherwise you're laundering lies.
"My guest today is Henry Kissinger, who worked as Secretary of State for disgraced former President Nixon, for whom he ran a secret bombing campaign in Cambodia that was both unconstitutional and a war crime, and murdered hundreds of thousands of civilians. Mr. Kissinger, hello."

This is wild and frequently hilarious stuff, and a major embarrassment, but the life the hotel staff describes is basically life in a totalitarian regime, with praise for the Dear Leader a requirement just for basic survival.

It's the Republican vision.

I mean just look at this shit.

And ask: what is the difference between a GOP member of Congress and a Trump hotel staffer, other than the fact that the GOP MoC has won the victory over himself, and truly loves Big Blather? Anyone who wasn’t a Trump fan quickly learned that putting
I ponder the massive popularity among Republicans for this spoiled toddler of a pig-president, demanding lavish ceaseless praise.

Then I ponder the anti-"woke" and anti-"cancel culture" streams of conservative thought, that amount to a desire to never be corrected.

Same energy.

As much as leftists hate to hear it, there are no systems better than unregulated capitalism, which is why Texans are getting $20,000 electricity bills but no electricity during a deadly freeze. nbcnews.com/business/busin…
The evidence is incontrovertible: our capitalist system, as currently structured, exists not to create wealth but to siphon it away. The proof is the way disaster acts as a trigger, not to help people, but to immediately capture as much of the remaining wealth as possible.
The greater the disaster, the more immediately and aggressively the system acts to capture wealth away from the people being harmed by the disaster.

Almost feels like it is expecting disaster and has already planned for it.

I'd say we might want to change such a system.
