“The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis”

Read this thread and have to agree with his assessment. With all the turmoil we’ve put up with because of the idiocy of Trump and the Republicans lack of morals for anything other than to destroy people’s lives I can see people moving to a more centrist view. I believe it will move us forward instead of the backward trend that is trying to get shoved down our throat.
The leftist push by Fuckin Bernie will be looked at as bullshit and pipedreams if for no other reason it’s bullshit and pipedreams. Saying the same thing over and over again isn’t going to go over well in the coming months, and isn’t now, while we are seeing out civil liberties disappearing. His surrogates, Turner,DeMoron and their ilk are doing a fine job of showing everyone that they aren’t the answer, but a hindrance.
If only people weren’t so hardheaded(stupid) and actually listened to Hillary…

So, you're all gonna vote from now on, right? Cause none of these tweets mean anything if you don't actually get off your ass and go vote.

Great thread…
1. We say this too flippantly sometimes, but Paul Ryan and others appear fine with Trump's white supremacy if rich people get tax cuts.

Another to add to that…
The presence of these corporate titans on Trump's council was reassuring for tax-cut Republicans. That cover is now gone. Riskier for Rs 14/

You do recall we defeated your ancestors in a war to specifically preclude you from having any say in this. Fuck off, ferret face. https://t.co/S7rVi6T6S6

As Veterans, we told Donald Trump that the way to honor Heather Hayer is to unconditionally oppose white supremacy & hate. He blocked us. pic.twitter.com/cSGxU6ZjVs

I miss them…a lot!
This is you Friday open thread…Fire away!
{{{Batch}}} – Thanks for the TGIF. Yes, we warned America. And while the specific cause of that first ad coming true is voter suppression in a few key states, if the race hadn’t been so close in those states it wouldn’t have been close enough to steal. (I said the same thing about FL in 2000.) The media is the real problem, but circumventing the current media situation so we can get enough power to fix it isn’t helped by the Extreme Left’s b.s.
I have a crazy day at work today so don’t know when I’ll be doing what, but I’ll try to drop back at least a couple of times before the end of the day. and will certainly do a “final check” once I get home before I head to Squirrel. moar {{{HUGS}}} to you and all the Meese Villagers.
Morning meese…Here’s hoping the kickback Trump is receiving from his latest stupidity will be the end of him…
{{{Batch}}} – that’s our girl. And the more “We told ya so” moments that come up, the more I miss what should have been. moar {{{HUGS}}}
{{{fitz}}}…I think I’ll always miss seeing what we so fervently wanted on Nov 9th. It’s so disheartening to realize there are so many blind people in the country. They got what they wanted and now have come to realize that we were right but they’ll never admit it. moar {{{Hugs}}}
Morning Meese and Batch. Getting ready to start my Mommy and Me weekend but wanted to wish everyone a great TGIF. Thanks for the excellent threads and stories. Hope your birthday was a good one yesterday (when all is said and done).
Thank you, Batch, and hi all…
I would love to believe the Stewie Brown tweet, but I can also see the white supremacists going all in to maintain their power. We’ll see…although, as I said on DK, I am heartened by the number of apolitical friends on FB who are coming out of the shadows and taking a stand.
Because of the online discussions I’ve been involved in, I’ve done a deep dive into Civil War era primary sources, so Tuesday’s post is going to be a history lesson of sorts. Consider yourselves warned…!
Guys, guys, guys!!! I’ve made the big leagues!!!!!!! Last week, Phoenixwoman was calling out Kos on Twitter about some recent bannings, and a whole conversation started (with kos @ed in but not participating) about the “coincidence” of being added to fcvaguy’s following list, and how it was a sign he wanted to get you banned. I wasn’t on his list, but I AM NOW!!!! I’ve made it…
That was a fun discussion we had, odd that everyone hit at the same time.
Nice job Batch, since this was posted a bunch more charities pulled out of Mar-A-Shit, including Red Cross. No such thing as a slow news day. I was texting with a ‘friend’ who was complaining that her pastor brought the news into church. It seems to me that it would be malpractice not to. With KKK and White Supremacists in the streets, you’re either an American or you’re not. Wish I was fit enough to march, but I’m not
