VOTE, PEOPLE! Please. Your democracy and way of life is threatened, and everything hangs by a very slender thread...
This is not a drill.

This is not a drill.
Just use whatever canned phrase comes to mind.
“Don’t use this extremely common phrase! Stop saying this innocuous but apparently infuriating cliche! Never email someone these 4 basic English words in any order!”
Amplifying Trump’s messages by sharing them whole cloth is in poor taste. This isn’t hard to understand.
“Just checking in” is the friendly first reminder. The average person should understand that’s being polite. The next email is, “I’m still waiting on this.”, followed by, “This is the third time I’ve asked for this.”
If you have to follow up with someone because you have a job to do and they can’t get you what you need, being a little passive aggressive never hurts anything imo
“He was standing near a rock! He was standing on rocks! He was listening to rock music!”
This will also lay the ground work for police to say the same thing, “oh he had a rock, go ahead and fire” or “That cell phone looked like a rock and I felt like my life was in danger, so I fired 12 rounds into that individual”
On here, I don’t really argue at all with Trumpers unless I feel like they are making an argument a person might make in good faith (like, what’s the problem with needing IDs to vote? which seems logical at face value). And when I argue back it’s just for the benefit of someone else. I don’t entertain racists and…
Alex Jones should spend the twilight of his years destitute and penniless, the only audience for his malignant conspiracy theories the gutter rats who gather nightly to rip at his flesh when he falls asleep.
I’m not seeing family these upcoming holidays (and frankly the family I see regularly doesn’t talk politics anyway), but if I was I’m not sure I could handle it this year.
“I just wanted a tax cut and being tougher on immigration. So sad about what happened. The Democrats force them to pull the triggers! Can you pass the biscuits?”
Yeah, I have abandoned the idea and practice of engaging in any “debate” on any of this stuff with anyone who supports Dump*. It’s clearly pointless, and not worth my time, energy, frustration, or anger. But at least my wife enjoys venting out loud at the TV along with me, so it’s kinda like we both get to voice our…
Yeah I can talk to my dad because he is an anti-Trump Republican so at least we have SOME common ground (though not a lot, and I’ll eat my hat if he actually renounced Republicanism), and one of my uncles and I have always been able to have good faith discussion (except he looks like a goddamn lunatic online).…
Yeah, I’m essentially no longer in contact with a couple siblings (and their spouses) for similar reasons - but mostly because they do not engage in good faith or civil discussions, but rather start out with blatant lies and conspiracy theories and racist / bigoted rhetoric and quickly resort to personal insults and…
You are right. Vote blue to save your own life.
Hes also laying the groundwork for killing US when we protest. That's what's coming next.
I have kept Republican family members and friends a distance (after berating them all in November 2016). I am not shy about my beliefs and I will engage anyone in a good faith civil discussion, but if this shit ends in a massacre....I will have no forgiveness left. None. Plenty of them will tell me they wish this…
So fucked up. And it’ll all happen just in time for the holidays.
Good. Hopefully they bankrupt the shit out of him.
