Republicans, "enlightened centrists", far leftists, can all kma. Warren and Crockett fangirl, proud Bay Stater. If you need persuasion to vote out Republicans, you don't hate them enough. 100% geek and caretaker when not politics-ing.

Failures as a geek: I haven't gotten around to seeing Firefly yet, and I've only seen a couple episodes of Doctor Who like 40 years ago.

Every day I realize we're effectively trying to create the real life version of Shadowrun just without at least having cool magic abilities.

Federal court blocks ICE from detaining unaccompanied minors once they turn 18 The ruling comes a day after ICE confirmed it would offer unaccompanied minors money to self-deport to their home countries.

Wait until you discover video game and comic book commentary.

So much of it is "writing an article about someone's fan theory/handcanon they posted on Reddit".

There are a whole lot of people in charge of the government right now and many government-adjacent ones where all I can think is that we're all paying the price for their parents failing hard at parenting correctly.

Yep. Lot of us caregivers living in paranoia over what's going to happen to our healthcare.

Especially since if we're not healthy, that kinda directly affects our ability to care for our patients and all.

If you ever wondered what Republican β€œgovernance” looks like, this is it.

A government shutdown.
Federal workers who don’t get paid.
A President who golfs during a shutdown.
National guards and ICE deployed to attack and arrest Americans.
Millions of Americans losing their healthcare.

Sen. Duckworth: ICE agents are zip tying children, throwing reporters on the ground, separating children from their mothers. They are raging through the streets trying to intimidate ordinary citizens. That's not what America is about. It is shameful Trump has instigated this

Then I suggest you go fight an actual white supremacist.

You apparently stand for being violently harassing to someone who wasn't even saying what you thought they were saying.

They were talking about people who *don't* want to fight and who think Democrats should be nicer to conservatives.

I'm pointing out you're not a moderate, you're a violent extremist who's being an abusive harasser.

And you need therapy immediately, because if you behave like this online you're almost certainly a dangerous threat to the people around you offline.

I feel like the same could be said of almost any topic. The last 45 years has been Republicans claiming that government doesn’t work, and then sabotaging the government to make sure it doesn’t work.

The GOP has done nothing on healthcare in the 21st century other than stop Dems from improving it. Literally nothing.

Trying to be sane, at least.

People like OP make me start wanting to beat my head against the wall until the hurting stops, ngl.

But it's nice to meet you as well, and I am always happy to collect into my orbit other people trying to constructively address the fascists.

After reading your posts, I don't think you understand what the word "moderate" means.

It’s Time for Americans to Start Talking About β€œSoft Secession” Blue states are finally learning what red states have known all along: you don’t need federal permission to govern.

They are, FWIW. cmarmitage.substack.com/p/its-time-f...

But I also get you were saying "don't feed the trolls", but it's hard to tell nowadays who actually *is* a troll versus just an incredibly stupid human.

Yeah sometimes when I feel really down about myself, I remind myself that even if I haven't been able to make the world better like I wanted, I at least didn't intentionally make it worse like many other people do, either.

I claimed Schumer had real reasons for being a normal minority leader dealing with the actual worst MAJORITY party in living memory.

And the "other person" who is totes not you pinkie swear mentioned things that didn't happen, so I correctly dismissed them as things that didn't happen. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

You're preaching to the choir, FWIW. I agree with the responses in your pic and about Dems being the only viable party right now.

Just wasn't sure if you posted your pic because YOU agreed with those responses or if you were mocking people who make those responses, as it's hard to tell these days.

And yep, they proved they were a sockpuppet of the person I originally blocked by using the exact same phrasing and wording.

I once again note that this sort of BS of being harassed by a zillion sockpuppets of people who can't take "eff off" for an answer is part of why I left Twitter.

06.10.2025 17:55 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

And yup, you are rather obviously the other person's sockpuppet since you're using literally the exact same phrasing and argument they did.

Goodbye.

Like my argument was, if you're going to argue AOC wouldn't have done the same thing Schumer did, then you have to prove it.

Meaning you have to explain why Schumer did it, and that it's a reason AOC would be unlikely to follow.

If you can't do that, then you can't argue AOC wouldn't have done it.

I mean, if I was dead wrong, then both you and the person I originally blocked would have been able to address the point I actually made, versus your made up fake strawman versions of it.

06.10.2025 17:48 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

They also in another branch strawmanned *another* argument I made, and then on top they suspiciously picked up an argument almost immediately right after I blocked the person I was originally having it with, despite not being already tagged in and the person I blocked not having many followers.

06.10.2025 17:47 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Also, you're not that person's sockpuppet account, are you?

Kinda weird and suspicious any time the second I block someone another account not already tagged in immediately appears out of nowhere to pick up the argument.
