TIP FOR CONSERVATIVES:

If you are bereft over the gun shooting of Charlie Kirk, just pretend he was a kid in an elementary school, and you will forget about the whole thing within a minute.

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

Janeway. I grew up on TNG, TOS,& VOY, but the strong women characters on Voyager changed my life as a kid. I donโ€™t know if Iโ€™d be in Congress if that show wasnโ€™t on TV.

My dad was a huge Star Trek/Roddenberry fan & always talked about its social & political history. I could go on forever about ST ๐Ÿช

The whole backlash against CRT, DEI, student protest, everything is a backlash to 2020. Black folks keep pointing this out and I keep asking everyone else to please see and say this

This progressive community in the red and pink is a huge factor nationwide and is there, accessible and passionate for anybody who needs to talk about their concerns about, say, full personhood for women.

The easy, unthinking liberalism overlying clever contrarian conservatism that you find in some people in more progressive areas just isn't that common when conservative righteousness is everywhere.

In that red/pink area, anybody who is publicly progressive is that way despite social pressure to adhere to traditionalist ideology.ย  The progressive community tends to be more cohesive there because of the need for mutual support.

This fetish distorts our national discussion because these Volk are portrayed as authentic in a way that other people are not. ย All that red and pink is composed of 25-50% Democrats who would vote for even an old centrist like Biden to oppose the Trump movement.

The only areas where the voters were anywhere close to unanimous in their support for Trump are the brownish areas, but the national press seeks to portray the entire swath of red and pink as the heartland real-Americans that the democrats fail to understand. Let me tell you of my lived experience.

Almost nothing is more powerful than a personโ€™s ability to be honest with themselves. We all believe our own lies so easily, there are usually many willful blind spots permeating our worlds. We lie to ourselves and we know-but-donโ€™t-know weโ€™re lyingโ€”we donโ€™t let ourselves really know.
