Dems are mad that you won't obey and get the shot.
Dems are mad that Sinema won't obey and kill the filibuster.
Dems are mad that Manchin won't obey and vote for the federalization of elections.
Anger is a hell of a drug.
They got addicted under Trump, and now that they have power, they refuse to go to rehab.
Instead they inject more and more anger into their veins.
There is a time to be righteously angry, yes.
But there is nothing right now to be righteously angry about.
They know the COVID vax is done. The evidence about the vax is out. You cannot logically demand people get it.
They know the "voting rights" bills aren't about voting but about setting up a system that they control to guarantee they stay in power.
They know the Democrats used the filibuster two hundred of times under Trump, and that as soon as the GOP retook the Senate, they'd have been screaming about the need for it.
They KNOW these things.
But constantly lying to themselves and to others drives them to anger, but because they cannot be angry at themselves or their tribe, they must harness that anger as a weapon to use against the others.
So they get mad at you, at Sinema, at Manchin, at DeSantis... at anyone who refuses to bend their knee to make the Democrats happy.
It's an abusive relationship they're after.
"Why do you make me hurt you? Just get the shot and I'll let you get on airplanes. I'll let you go to movies. Just do what I want and it will stop."
But those of us who have experience with abuse...
We will not just give in and bow down to the anger.
Get angry, Biden.
Get angry, Harris.
Get angry, Pelosi and Schumer.
Burn yourselves out on it. Feed on it. Snort it. Shoot it between your toes.
Your anger will not spur me to action.

You don't have a right to work if you're not vaccinated, but you have a right to work if you're vaccinated but infected with COVID.
You don't have a right to know what teachers are teaching your children but you also don't have the right to get your tax money back to pay for a better school.
You have a right to protest in the middle of a pandemic but you don't have a right to run your business in the middle of a pandemic.
"We can't give Trump and the fascist GOP all that power so let's hand it to the Communist Democrats" is one of the dumbest logic turds ever sold by Former Republican ™️
Right-wing authoritarianism cannot come to power in America. The media would not allow it.
At every turn, Trump was fact-checked (even if the fact check was very, very wrong).
Remember when the media tried to make Ron DeSantis look like a pedophile but ended up making him look badass?
Remember when the media tried to make Ron DeSantis look like he was doing favors for his donors by using Publix to distribute the vaccine but ended up making him look like he knew what he was doing?
Remember when the media tried to make Ron DeSantis look like he was getting rich by promoting monoclonal treatments but ended up making him look like he was saying exactly what the federal government was saying about the treatments?
