       @georgetakei the United States government is the product of successful terrorism. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/trump-congress-political-violenceThat the GOP is being kept in terrorized line by a mere whiff of what gay and trans people experience all day every day from Trump's rape cult just shows how contemptible Republicans are.

       @georgetakei I wholeheartedly agree. Perhaps the next Republican to ballistically voice their disapproval will be competent.

       @cstross The level to which Americans eschew an evidence-based epistemology for an authoritarian one is, frankly, horrifying.  Coupled with a carefully-nursed mental blind-spot of "if it hasn't happened to me, it hasn't happened" and you've got something pretty impervious to new information and reasoning.Thus now we America aligning with Russia against NATO because a rapist mobster and his Nazi billionaire pal said to.

       The history of Nazis holding rallies in left-wing areas of Weimar Germany, instigating street fights, and then telling the press that only they could save Germany from the "violent communists" seems like an important thing for people to be studying right now.

       Turning Points USA was set up by two young Republicans to spread misinformation about COVID and gun violence.One died of COVID, the other by gun violence. I don't even have to write a joke about that.
