This is so important - when people say things about the racists all dying out I’m like, no, the racists are being radicalized and indoctrinated early. We cannot rely on them dying out.

I hate Wisconsin Nazis.
I’ve been calling this administration Nazis for a long time and I have yet to have someone say I’m overreacting.
Godwin himself (author of the Law) said all bets are off with Trump, I believe 2 years ago. The shoe fits. Call a Nazi a Nazi. I do. Fuck all the idiots who gaslight us with, “It’s not that bad. You’re overreacting.” Oh yes it is. This is how entire populations of countries are imprisoned/killed/used as war fodder. The…
I agree, so many people are like that with the protests planned tonight. Well it’s not a “big” thing that happened why was the protest called. That’s the point there will be no “big” event you can point to to say this far & no further it will be little lines crossed quietly every single day. Civilizations fall with…
The exhausting part is that it seems like every day should be the breaking point. Then the next day happens, it starts all over again and you just sort of become numb. The gaslighting is working I guess.
I love the way she keeps looking at Trump like “what do I do now? his hands aren’t tiny and weak like mein fuhrer!”
The Holocaust exhibit at the Imperial War Museum in London is one of the greatest museum exhibits I’ve ever experienced. It starts with a long hallway detailing the history of anti-Semitism in Europe, slowly sharpening focus down to Germany between the wars. As you go along, reading each new law enacted by the Nazis,…
This is the type of thing that keeps me up at night. And Sessions’s removal as AG yesterday made my sleep particularly bumpy.
The intern was way out of line trying to snatch the mic out of Acosta’s hand. Who the fuck does she think she is? Even though he didn’t do it, she deserved a mild karate chop.
Every day the line is crossed and every day it becomes more normalized. Honestly, what is the solution to this complete disregard for the truth? We can see it happening as clear as day but every day just brings more and more lies. Now with the midterms over it seems like the next two years are going to devolve into an…
I posted this upthread, but it’s still in the grays. But seriously, this is scary shit.
I wouldn’t say he just plows on. In fact, I’d prefer he just make the mistake and move on since everybody knows what he meant. It’s the fact that he stops, realizes the mistake, goes “fuck you, I meant to say that” by saying AND, then says the correct word that makes it awful.
Although apparently we CAN get fooled again.
Hell GWB was actually able to turn his occasional mangling of the English language into a humorous and charming character trait with his self deprecating reactions when he’d correct himself.
This is both sad and funny, but not in the funny-ha-ha sort of way.
It’s really early to be sundowning.
His “the fucked up word AND the correct word” speech pattern is so very him: he can’t even admit he made a simple mistake like that and has to pretend it was intentional.
It also took Trump all of about 15 seconds to remind us he can’t read or at least can’t quickly comprehend words he reads, saying “... the midtams... AND the midterm elections...”
