Imagine how it might've been had racism been completely eradicated... Blacks are still fighting after spending centuries fighting against racism & all the other isms...
We The People Rise Up 🎺🎺🎺
Dad was a WWII pilot. At the time he lied about his age to join the war effort cause every able bodied male was going. He figured that fighting #fascism and hate was every Americans duty
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
thank you... I took on His Grace Commission... which is the foundation for their "economics".. got Published in a Major news paper, got death threats.. The one sent their address.. my replay was: " what Funeral Home do you want your body sent to when you show up at my door"
Yes! He tried to harm the disabled also! That was beyond unacceptable! The same with the mentally ill! I haven’t yet been near his grave but will be sure to water his grave w/ large catheter bag full.
Yep, similar stories from my father and others in the family. We were warned that this could come back and to take it as seriously as soon as it raised its head.
Sadly, that’s what they’re attempting, but only if we let them. We all need to remember, we outvoted these people. There are more of us who didn’t vote for this than there are who did. And some of those who voted for him didn’t vote for this.
That's a thought. All us old ladies should set up 50 gallon drums and burn a bunch of bras as a statement. Just to make our point, maybe we could then throw in a bunch of jock straps, boxers, and tiny whites. I'll bring marshmallows too!
Berlin, 1933, white Nazi students pulled books off a truck and threw them into a public square. Works by Albert Einstein; Helen Keller, Theodore Dreiser, and more. Books they stole that didn’t support Nazi ideology encouraging free thinking. https://www.mississippifreepress.org/democracy-as...
Me either, but here we are.
We are the generations who succeeded the Greatest Generation, and it behooves us to honour them and our democracy at all costs.
Right on.
We had a town hall today with one of our senators and our congress critter. Both Democrats, and all they could come up with were sputtering non-answers when asked what they were doing about this shit.
Neither did I, but when Trump invades Canada, I will be ready. I will apologize now for fighting against Americans, but we have to do what we have to do.
I’m 75 on Monday, can’t image that America is allowing a narcissistic, fascist, ignorant man ruin this country. I hope I live long enough to see it recover and Trump is dead!
that is a fact Rick, never in a million years would I have thought we'd have to fight this fight. The shock is wearing off, and we're getting organized. A lot of us old farts are ready, willing and able to take this head on…
Me neither (67).
But we’ve had a lotta years of life without fascism.
The kids haven’t.
I figure I’d like to go out on a high note.
Up the republic.
Fuck the fascists.
Yep I am 63 "WHITE" The majority of this shit will NOT affect me BUT I WILL NOT FUCKING STAND FOR IT. I am still on TWTR posting facts on MAGAt agitprop feeeds telling people you better contact your Rep and Senator before once again it's too late as what they want to do is going to fuck you up.
Yes mentally it is. I was meaning that it will NOT have the same affect on me like it will on people in their 20/30/40/50's if what the GOP is trying to do with their tax cuts and program gutting is not stopped.
I'm in my 70's. I remember all the protests of the 60's, antiwar, civil rights. I thought what a great country we're building, equality, the end of needless wars. I'm embarrassed how naive I was.
I'm 57. I work in healthcare. Medicaid is the main source of funding for most people in the nursing homes.
What are we supposed to do when their funding is cut? Am I supposed to just wheel them out the door? I'm not a monster. I can't do that.
What are we going to do?
👍 But not only will $880 billion strike at the health of patients but it'll effect the entire industry surrounding the care of those patients. It puts the healthcare jobs and the industries supporting them seriously at risk, effecting the economies of every state. There are about 77K on Medicaid.
It’s not just nursing homes—adult care w/cognitive development , mental hospitals, hospice care, palliative care, pharmacies, doctors, nurses, hospitals, foster kids, etc. red states will cut the money cord as soon as it happens.
Large parts of Kentucky for instance, almost 50%! On average, 23% of America is on some kind of Medicaid. Pretty interesting is another number I follow. Corporations pay 50% of their wage earners low to poverty wages. The Medicaid averages are not surprising given that.
I’m six months from when I planned to retire from my full-time job. I had a job lined up to start the day I was legal to work as teenager. Forty-six and a half years in the workforce (and still planning to work part-time), and here we are.
I’ve only done 43 years. Coming up for occupational retirement. Tbh I could have retired nearly 5 years ago, but occ pen would have been reduced by 5% per each of the 5 years early. And I like my job. So hoping for 2 to 3 days a week. Or a complete change…
Welcome to the I'm in my 60s fighting this fascist regime. There are people in their 70s and 80s doing this crap. People in wheelchairs are carrying protest signs. Very sad indeed. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
We are made for this fight. Things would’ve been much worse if this started after we were gone as we carry the memories of growing up with parents and grandparents who fought for this country. And for those who disparage it, you need to travel. you’ll come home with a new appreciation of the USA
My 70s, my family has been fighting them since my Great Uncle Tony fought off the Klan in Indiana. Fought them at Midway, in the Solomons, on Omaha Beach, and some lie in the Pits of Babi Yar.

So true. I’ve lived a lovely life and do feel frustration that we have to do this. But we are born in the time we are born and this time is our responsibility and then will be our legacy.
That's a Bob Dylan song. "Born In Time." One of his later albums. Love that song. Anyway, lucky ALL of us who were "born in time" for this. I think only small children and really old folks are spared the knowledge, but not the consequences. 😔
You are Just pimpin dem party bullshit. Don't get ahead of yourself. https://www.doge.gov/ Follow the MOney to the real fascists and nazis and communists. All Children of imperfect thinking. AKA The democrats.

Unfortunately, our politicians, MSM and industry though otherwise......
I’m extremely disappointed.

Preparing to fight the fascists next door.
My Uncle Fred was wounded.
My disgust for all of this is deeply visceral.

But now -- nah
But I gotta
It's like they're dumb or something.
Time to take out the trash again.
Arm up, stock up, stand up.
#Bellaciao song helped us last time.
But we’ve had a lotta years of life without fascism.

I hoped we would have evolved past this kind of BS happening.

What are we going to do?
Voting actually matters.
Your heart is good, but not the GOP.
The limit of income and assessed value to qualify for Medicaid is $2000 a month, not $2000.01.
Yet the wealthy need tax breaks so they can’t pay fair share. They see the poor as lazy.
I have no idea what to do.

I already did 50 yrs in the trenches, dammit!
(We didn't want this, but knew it was always possible. The surviving Jews tried to warn us "Not to Forget.")
Alas, the divisive, 24/7 rightwingmediabubble proved highly successful by enducing mass amnesia upon its red and blurry-eyed viewers.
He recorded different versions with different words. So it's up to the individual. But it's beautiful!
