It worked when people weren’t paying attention. 

The difference is that Canada’s elections are national and run by Elections Canada. Each US state runs its own election and thus there are 50 ways to do it. 

And this is why I believe all these voter suppression efforts will ultimately blow up in their faces. You don’t fuck with Americans’ voting rights. You just don’t do it.

And yet his own family tried to warn Arizona about who Paul Gosar really is. 

“But but but our job is so harrrrrd!”

This is what a police state looks like. 

I mean these people COULD just stop saying the most racist-ass thing that comes into their racist-ass heads but that would be too much to ask for. 

The Turd Reich demands ideological purity, after all. 

How pathetic is the fact that most Americans can only learn about this nation’s true racist history by watching TV shows like Lovecraft Country and The Watchmen?

I’m guessing that she sees those Ten Commandments as merely suggestions, as do most Evilgelicals like her.

They attack that which they do not understand because they are a mindless horde of troglodytes and ur-humans that respond in a Pavlovian fashion to any and all trigger words programmed into them through endless repetition on Fox News. 

They are paving the way for an authoritarian, fascist white supremacist government because they know that if they can gain a majority in the House it’s all over for democracy. 

It always comes back to what LBJ said. Always. 

Precisely. And LBJ nailed it when he said “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, he’ll even empty his own pockets for you.”

This. Wypipo view equality as a zero-sum game because they KNOW that on an even playing field POC’s will run laps around them. 

“Jim Crow Joe”.

Lying by omission is still a lie, asshole. 

And racism affects EVERYONE. Even the racists. 

Because America treats sports like a religion? 

Actually I do agree with what you’re saying. If Congress refuses to certify we are fucked and in an unprecedented Constitutional Crisis situation. I guess I was thinking too narrowly in terms of a military, Myanmar-style coup.
