It's not about politics, it's about simple human decency. And that treasonous orange sack of shit has none. I'll dance for joy on the day we finally hear that he's dead and rotting in the ground. Signal: @midnightstation.64

ICE in Burnsville, MN followed a family home, broke down their door, and abducted 4 of them at gunpoint including the parents of a 7 year old and the husband of a pregnant woman. All of this occurred without a warrant for a home owned by a US citizen. (12/6/25)

I like to imagine a future where I can
take a historical tour of Washington
DC to see the spot where Donald
Trump was dragged out of the White
House by an enraged mob of
common citizens and beaten to
death with a stop sign in the middle
of Pennsylvania Ave.
I would like to rub the lamppost (for
luck) where they hung his bloody,
bloated corpse.

Ask yourself, what's more offensive? These words? Or the terrorists who inspired them?

Your answer will help you determine if Authoritarian Fascism is right for you.

WE ARE HEARTBROKEN THAT OUR IMMIGRANT

REGARDLESS OF THEIR LEGAL STATUS, THERE ARE
SO MANY LATINOS & SOMALIANS WHO ARE AFRAID
OF BEING DETAINED DUE TO MISTAKEN IDENTITY
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY MIGHT NOT GET DUE

DETENTION CENTERS & A LEGAL PROCESS THAT

WE STAND IN SUPPORT OF OUR IMMIGRANT

COUNTRY. WITHOUT IMMIGRANTS, AMERICA IS NOT
THE SAME PLACE. STAY SAFE OUT THERE & TAKE
CARE OF YOUR NEIGHBORS.

One of the most common replies in any discussion of universal basic income is "but how do we pay for it?" and not once do those same people ever question the costs incurred by not doing UBI. We spend $1.5 trillion every year on the costs of child poverty alone. Poverty ain't free, folks. WE ALL PAY.

I don't agree with much of what the author seems to believe about Trump voters... but I want to.

Separating them from their religion when it comes to policy, especially when billionaires spend unlimited amounts on propaganda to exploit their faith, is the big challenge.

The problem is the money.๐Ÿ’ฐโ˜ ๏ธ

I'm certainly not here to defend Democrats. I align with the things they SAY they stand for, but they don't seem to be doing much standing lately.

For me there's only one solution to fix it all. Get the money out of politics. No more private fundraising. Only then can we serve the public good.

Yeah, I keep reading about all these mythical repentant voters who have turned on Trump, but I haven't seen any in the real world. It was never about policy with them, they're just painfully slow-witted, shitty people.

I'll admit it... I had zero faith that voting would end this nightmare. I'm still highly skeptical that we're gonna see another truly "fair and free election" at the national level, but this is a glimmer of hope at least.
