Ugh yes. I have had someone pulling me back and forth by my arms, pushing me with one of those shield things while another little piggy was shouting “stop resisting” at me and I had to just literally go floppy, but NOT TOO FLOPPY, and then while I was finally pulled out of the crowd just keep my head down going “am I…

Right. BUT! Body cams. You should be recorded if it comes down to it. It’s worth saying it, but I hear you (no pun intended).

No, you didn’t mean assassinate but I did.

He made eye contact.

Not resisting is important. So, I’m not in the US but I have been a part of many rallies etc and this is advice I was given and passed on to everyone I have ever known wrt police and political action.

if I were to say, and I’m not saying I would, pick who needs to be assassinated, I would have to pause between Bannon and Kushner. We know Bannon’s agenda. He’s been spewing it openly for years on Breitbart. What is Kushners? My guess? Some sort of Middle Way involving the tech industry and social media leverage, but…

Responding bc starring isn’t taking anything out of the grey this eve and you make points that I both agree with and feel desperately need to be shared.

I do still adore and admire Stassa, btw. I’m just not on side with this one position.

I disagree with all of this.

This is my issue with this entire article. She says the same things as her husband and that proves that she is a thinking, active woman with her own ideas and agency? It proves no such thing. It proves she is capable of falling in and getting on tv so say what she’s been told to say, but that’s all it proves. We know…

Yep just need to dig around. Actually I was watching the various Trump related pages change in real time during the election cycle and it bugged me but made sense. Seeing sites actually seem to be down entirely, or pages removed, is a tad more Orwellian but I think we are well into 1984 territory now so I’m not…

Thank you :)

I’ve recently just left what was, in retrospect, an incredibly psychologically abusive situation. A month out and I am just beginning to really put it all together after what ended up being an incredibly explosive and destructive end.

Yeah she’s a surprisingly sympathetic figure!

Yeah, me too. I’m actually trying not to take it to heart so I just walked away. People here can be very cruel to women they see as not deserving of human empathy. It’s disturbing.

Wtf are you doing on The Slot complaining about politics. You know this is the political vertical of Jez, right? This kind of thing is literally the only thing that gets reported here.

Well! Here’s the *really* interesting part. A lot of this info seems to be wiped from the net now. I looked at some old links I had and got 404 messages, at least on the Slovenian stuff. I do have translated docs on my computer but need to go through them. Lemme see....

This is a really shallow take on what it’s actually like to be in an abusive relationship. You have no idea how much gas lighting, threatening, tantrums that need to be placated etc may have gone on here.

I saw that nasty smirk and I fucking know that smirk. That’s the face of someone who knows they just landed a good threat or a good put down. I fucking hate this guy.

I think there’s just been a miscommunication here. I took the comment to be referring to Melania, not Callas. I’m aware of MC’s issues with Pringle. Just crossed wires.
