hobbes was a bellend.

that’s all i got.

He was but some days I really have trouble believe some people can govern themselves. Like when you see Democracy’s Citadel being stormed by delusional extremists.

i know it’s hard to maintain given everything going on, but the only people that benefit from us feeling hopeless or descending into nihilism are the fuck-lunches in charge.

Well I don’t do nihilism, I never go down that low and if I ever did I would pick myself back up from it as Nietzsche intended. I’d like to thank Epic Rap Battles for giving me the power to spell Nietzsche without spellcheck.

media in general have a lot to answer for…

Dems have all 3 levers now though. Before all this madness started today, the market was up, but Facebook stock was down. Antitrust and maybe even breakups coming.

populating the cabinet with a lot of the obama-era faces isn’t a good sign that much will change, unfortunately…

i get the impression that once trump is out dems are going to relax rather than push hard, paving the way for more - as you said - effective american-style fascism.

Cori Bush is already moving from the to sanction every elected official who supported Trump’s claims of election fraud - so at least the Democrats more radical members are off to a good start.

WTF?
