THREAD:
An associate of mine, late 60s, who refused to get vaccinated & scoffed at COVID as media hype is in MICU at the VA on a vent.
He has influence over a significant group, some of whom probably didn't get vaxxed to emulate him.
He wouldn't mask up unless forced.
1/5
Last week, he canceled the weekly pizza night at his house, which he doesn't even do for holidays. Claimed he had strep throat, but of course, didn't go to the doctor. Every time someone talked to him, he couldn't breathe. Whenever he texted, he'd say, the worst is passed.

Just left Book Gallery West in Gainesville, Fla. I don't plan on going back.
I decided to visit for Independent bookstore day. While browsing, a woman I can only believe was the owner or manager started a conversation with the front desk clerk...
1/x
about how one of the other employees had become flustered by a political conversation, & said that some people take it personal.
FDC: It is personal. But I still believe in America.
Owner/Manager: I'm registered independent, but I identify as a JFK Democrat...

1) Bobo’s Legion of Super Activists: Time for my list of great activists, commentators, & analysts. I’ve verified all. Follow who you like, but be aware, some may not follow back. This is NOT a FBR list. Don’t try to make it one. Don’t get mad if those listed don’t follow back. 2) I’ve listed all of you on this List for one of two reasons. You’ve requested addition & I vetted you, or I appreciated the content you regularly share, & I added you. Or both.
We must ramp up our efforts. Organizing. Registering. Planning. Fundraising.

Here's my thing. Bernie did not concede in a timely manner in 2016. He then withheld support from Clinton, & when he finally DID support her, it was lukewarm at best.
Bernie is also 78 years old, recently suffered a major heart attack, and refuses to release his medical records.
I love how #BernieBros who don't even follow me have jumped on to attack, not even reading the embedded tweet.
Or if they do, their reading comprehension is as low as their integrity.
Even going so far as to "but, Hillary" like the Trumpers.
Take it elsewhere, Bros.

Bobo’s Legion of Super Resisters: Time for my list of great resisters, commentators, & analysts. I’ve taken the time to verify all. Follow who you like, but be aware, some may not follow back. This is not technically a FBR list. Don’t get mad if they don’t follow back.
I’ve listed all of you on this Resister List for one of two reasons. You’ve requested addition, & I vetted you, or I appreciated the content you regularly share, & I added you. Or both.
To be added to this list, follow me (if you aren’t already) & send me a DM!

Don’t get mad if they don’t; that's why I don't call this a FBR list!
Let's go!
I’ve listed all of you on this Resister List for one of two reasons. You’ve requested addition, & I vetted you, or I appreciated the content you regularly share, & I added you. Or both.
If you don't think you are making a big enough difference, go make a difference.
