And as usual, someone on the right finally says the quiet part out loud. So many people are just waiting for an excuse to kill their neighbors.

Keep pointing out his crimes and the harm he’s done. Mention the bankruptcies. Point out the adultery. Talk about him stealing from his contractors. The racism. The rapes. Make the righties acknowledge that they have to be hypocrites to survive the cognitive dissonance.

Also, pretending that Trump is a victim is central to maintaining the right-wing belief in their own superiority and righteousness. If they had to acknowledge that Trump is an awful human being, everything else crumbles.

Remember, the point of Project 2025 isn’t to give the office of the presidency new powers - the point is to give Trump’s presidency new powers. If they really believed in the unitary executive, they’d call it Project 2024 and Biden would already be appointing people.

If they really believed in their unitary executive theory, it’d be Project 2024, not 2025.

I kinda feel like now that the Supreme Court has declared it legal for a president to straight-up murder people they don't like, it's probably even more important to not elect people who seem extremely inclined to murder people they don't like

/2. For instance, conservatives intuit and discover a right for the executive to break the law and flaunt the very Constitution they rely upon with impunity. And liberals intuit and discover the right to privacy and bodily autonomy.

When it comes to interpreting the Constitution to find rights and privileges not explicitly listed there, both sides are bad. Both sides do it. /1

30% of Americans will absolutely kill you, or me, if it’s fun or convenient or temporarily popular. The real action is in what percentage can’t be persuaded to give a shit.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Had we listened to Anita Hill, we wouldn't be here today. Had we listened to the women sexually abused by Trump, we wouldn't be here today. Had we listened to Christine Blasey Ford, we wouldn't be here today.

Makes me think of Wilhoit’s Law: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

It’s also telling that the right wants the executive branch to have all this power and authority, but not right now - just in a year or so.

It’s hilarious that the righties keep pushing for an imperial presidency to protect Trump while he actually isn’t the president. Long live King Biden!

Same here. And I’m hoping that I’m right that the company will suffer from that decision. I really want to believe that moral behavior is profitable. But I’m also sick of the profit motive altogether.

It’s not even “oh, let’s stop having rainbow merch,” it’s places like Tractor Supply going from actual support for orgs and policies that help LGBT and POC folks to just saying “fuck it, and also climate change is fake.”

This means romance authors. This means poets. This means screenwriters and playwrights and actors of anything remotely risqué. And eventually, anything secular. They have no point of satisfaction until they’ve erased all of non-Christian expression.

I'mma say this for all the people in the back. Don't vote for a person. Vote for your rights, for the rights of others. On page 5 of Project 2025's 180-day plan they openly call for outlawing porn, recommending imprisoning anyone who creates it. Are you an NSFW artist, or like the art? THIS IS YOU.

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

It’s wild hearing all the calls for Biden to drop out when the other guy is a convicted felon and no one’s said the same of him. It’s almost like we expect bad behavior from the Republicans.
