  • Did someone prevent you from voting in the primaries? Or running in the primaries if you didn’t like the people running?

    The candidates don’t just magically appear on the ballot. What you’re complaining about is “the majority of people didn’t want something as progressive as I did so it was duress”.

    “I’m not getting my way so it’s not fair” resonates about as much as “the election was stolen because my guy didn’t win”. Do you have the right to not vote at all? Sure. But then don’t say a fucking thing when the world around you is collapsing becuase the other guy is inifnitely worse than what you were too proud or stubborn to vote for.

    Progressives who refuse to vote for a moderate because “compromise is a four letter word” are as bad or worse than the tea party morons who started the republican party down the path of fascism.



  • There are millions of people right? What the fuck is so special about that one that we need to excuse them for preying on children?

    What’s special is they’re a republican, and there is dirt on them, which means they can be controlled. In a vacuum, nothing is special about Matt Gaetz. He’s a goblin looking fratbro who by all accounts has a pretty annoying personality. His special power is having a father who is also a politician and a penchant for banging underage girls which his donors and peers can use to control his actions.


  • My .02? There’s a large swath of “conservative” women who like the idea of going to church, being a stay-at-home mom, and having a husband that goes to work every day and provides for them. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that life.

    But what they found out is the guys espousing that lifestyle actually want to treat their wife as property. There was a solid 30 years of momentum building around “maybe I don’t want to have a two-income household, maybe I just want to be a mom”. Unfortunately, while the women were thinking “we’re partners in this household, I take care of the meals and the kids, you take care of making money” - the dudes were thinking “I own you, you do what I want, I do what I want, if you talk back, I’ll put you in your place”.
