it is VERY funny to me and very indicative of American liberal-to-leftist tendencies - not in a bad way, just like, this is what we do - that we are having a big conversation about what to do with Trump voters who only now realize he sucks, a demographic that doesn't and will never exist

I have seen a bunch of "no one voted for this," but, and maybe it's just my timeline or whatever, I haven't seen any "I did not vote for this." Maybe I'm missing something here but it feels like we're skipping some steps.

You see the same misunderstanding around the phrase “banality of evil” when they assume it means Nazis were boring when it actually means everyone was a Nazi. No one wanted to be anything else. To not be a Nazi was deviant behaviour

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

It’s a very weird time to be someone who grew up in alt right homeschool communities. So many niche terms I grew up hearing are now mainstream which I’m glad it’s being talked about and hate that it’s relevant. It’s the worst kind of horror to have the world your parents promised you come to life.

It's not "unfortunate", it's entirely unnecessary and preventable. I would really like William Tyson, pastor of Woodlawn Baptist Church. 5001 church were of Bowie, Maryland, at WBC Bowie on the Nazi social media, to explain to me like I'm five which refugee child Jesus would shoot.

One more time before I shuffle off for the week, with a sincere "thank you" to people who've boosted, shared and added their personally vetted advice! Disabled people are gonna be the sacrificial collateral in all this mess, but we deserve to see this through to the end. We're gonna make it, too!
