I’m old enough to remember when the Republican base was pretending to be alarmed by “rich men north of Richmond” pulling strings and undermining the will of the people. Oh, and remember “the swamp”? That was a good one.

Remember that his first official act as president in his first term was to send Sean Spicer out, literally on day one, to scold the press corp for seeing the paltry crowd at his inauguration. This guy is always, always just small dick energy in an ill-fitting suit.

Ha ha ha, this country is such a joke.

If Democrats are to ever succeed on a national level, the party needs to adopt strategies that acknowledge how comprehensively ignorant, gullible, and emotionally driven the American people are. They also need to stop banking on the notion that there is some kind of innate ‘goodness’ to the American psyche that can be appealed to.

The UN has had nothing to do with contributing to the trend you have described. As unpleasant as it is, that is almost entirely a result of nuclear deterrence.

Is the report going to explain what’s happening to this motherfucker’s head? Why is it increasingly shaped like that?

I am seeing the sentiment all over the place right now that says one should somehow adjust his or her principles because the electorate presumably disagrees with them. It is implied by some that there is somehow wisdom in the election results to which we need to cower. And, it is implied that not doing so is un-American, or perhaps un-democratic. All of that is nonsense, spewed by the very same unprincipled liars that have been enable the rise of fascism in the US for at least 40 years. Don’t let them lull you into accepting the autocracy that promises to enrich them at the expense of your freedoms, health, wellbeing, and wealth. Some things are just wrong, and they continue to be wrong when people support theme in mass. The republicans didn’t stop being fascists just because people voted for them.

If you encounter one of these, absolutely don’t pet it. Instead, kick it. Run over it. Perhaps, light that little robot fucker on fire. But definitely don’t pet it.

Yup, history is watching us completely drop the ball here. History is watching Joe Biden fail to rise to the occasion of addressing the onslaught of US fascism. The environment, peace, wealth, and our very freedoms are now in dire peril.

Dumbest motherfucking people in the world elected the dumbest motherfucking administration ever. The only upside that I can anticipate is that these dumb motherfuckers may greatly hasten the weakening of this country, and hopefully speedrun toward something like an end to US hegemony around the world.

Please don’t ever be lulled into believing that there is anything normal or sane about having a carve out that makes the President not subject to laws. This country was full on founded on the idea of rejecting kings. What an absolute joke of a nation we are. It’s just mustache twirling oligarchs and drooling peasant lemmings all the way down.

As we transition into full-blown tyranny, and the out-group begins to grow, I’m trying to educate myself about how to cope with it, survive and maybe even resist. I have found that discussions among black Americans online are extremely enlightening in this regard, presumably because they have existed forever in a precarious state, something like that which many more of us are about to be thrust. I’m not interested in scapegoating black males over this election. This happened because too many Americans are dumb fucks, ruled by emotions, and gullible as hell. End of story.
