A future conversation:
Son: Why is Jan 6th "National Peaceful Protest Day"?
Dad: It was a terrible day. But those responsible rewrote what happened. We let them.
Son: Why?
Dad: We're pussies, son. Don't use that word, tho. We'll fight about stuff like that, not the stuff that really matters.

As Bob Dole would say, “you know it, I know it and the American people know it!”
Biden has to extend pardons to everyone Trump wants to go after
Who says we have to lie down and get plowed down or wait for Hakeem Jefferies to say something? We don't. March at the Capitol, too, stop playing nice.
Thank you for this

Daughter- What killed Democracy?
Mom - Well, first it took over Instagram, then it took out the US.

Let's be the change we seek starting today. Get involved locally. Evolve into a national movement!
This is where we are.
They are everywhere, those triggers.
Bottom line, John Roberts said no to Dick Durbin and the Senate Judiciary Committee with zero consequences. Guess he wasn't a big enough Dick.
Joe should resign, Kamala declares SoE and arrests trump for sedition. I would rather deal with martial law than another trump presidency. We are screwing US for decades. Just 🛑!
You'd rather tone police people's choice of derogatory slurs than actually creating camaraderie in unity with fellow allies
Why do we have to just accept the degradation for the cause? Why can’t people just stop with the degradation? It’s not difficult.
- Did America save its democracy then?
- No, but some people increased their followers to over a million.
So very true.
Why the hell did we let trump v2 happen? Ffs. I am so fecking I’ll at the didn’t and doing of his voice and he hasn’t even taken office. The man is a cretinous, bloviating megalomaniacal grifter. Feck
The hidden point here is we have fallen into the trap of overusing identity politics to advance social causes...and we are alienating those we need in order to win elections and majorities required to advance those same causes.
When their reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy was on the line.
But sure, let's go with my choice of language as the reason this imaginary alliance is in disrepair.
I'm hardened to not be offended or let it shape my own personal vernacular.
Best be wise not to speak such slurs even when around our fellow kinfolk.
One being offended upon hearing or reading slurs won't change any bigot's mind or be cause for one's own self reflection.
This is what the other side means when they call us the intolerant left...no tolerance for anyone who doesn't think like us or use the same words as us.
If we are going to grow our cause back to 2020 numbers and beyond, it's something to consider.
They only showed footage of the morning that day.
And look at all the replies ("pussy" to connote weakness is misogynistic!). Of course. But the fact that some can't help but take the bait IS the point
This has become my go-to gif lately
A MUST READ.
Please feel free to comment.

Most of what is happening now is because powerful white men are insecure
I don't care about those words
bc I care about the "words"
historically, if things get better,
they get better for men only,
bc we insist there has to be SOMEONE to punch down
if we are to "win"
and we call it "success"?
There is no pride in that.
Nor lasting success.
You're not fostering loyalty or allyship dictating another's vernacular. You're only stoking infighting.
Nobody cares over one's preferred gendered slur.
Nobody's mad at women using the word dick
We just get annoyed they tone police when using the word pussy as if they were personally the target of such derogatory ire

I've never taken umbrage over being called a dick. As an intersex male, I'm glad they recognize Finkel is Einhorn and Einhorn's a Man!!
Nobody likes humoring tone police when we don't use the preferred gendered slur of choice.
You're not fostering loyalty or allyship dictating another's vernacular.
You're only stoking infighting.
I understand it's not for everyone.
I'm guessing Russian is your first language
Can't claim an insult is a compliment by wishing it into being
Purity test liberal infighting has made us a joke

Was I doing it wrong?
How I wish that was reality.
I wish Garland harm.
I just wish he hadn’t been in charge of helping to destroy our country
I hope he never has another restful night of sleep.
Personally think people descend on D.C. Jan 6th for a day-long silent vigil around Capital. Shame politicians w/ images from 4 years ago & a symbolic silence matching that of cowardly 'leaders' who let Trump slide after.
Aggressive but not violent.
But probably true
History is written by the victorious

Currently no one's doing anything so what if we all didn't do anything at the same time?
I was just hopeful we were closing this ugly chapter in US history. 🥺🥺
Taking the high road isn’t working.
I searched “kick in the balls”
and this is what came up.
