@cwebber They love the constitution in the same way they love the bible: as a trump card in an argument, without knowing WTH they're talking about because they've never read it.
I think it's a matter of time before the statue of liberty is deported and replaced on the pedestal with a Doberman Pinscher with a spiked collar mauling a guy in a turban. #UnAmerican
After more than 11M No Kings protestors showed up across the country (don't know if this number is verified) vs only about 10K for Trump's birthday parade (they planned for 200-400K), this image from de Adder has never been more appropriate, and Trump has never been weaker. #NoKings #LimpDickTrump
Perhaps the most unintentionally funny tweet about the Battle of the Raging Narcissists is this one trying to frame it as a debate. I've seen more debate-like exchanges from middle school girls who like the same boy. We all have. #Schadenfreude #TrumpMuskSplit
The perception that there has been less activism in 2025 is simply wrong, a function of lazy and shuttered corporate- and billionaire journalism. The Harvard Crowd Counting Consortium noted that in 2025 โour research shows that street protests today are far more numerous and frequent than skeptics might suggest.โ In fact, โsince 22 January, weโve seen more than twice as many street protests than took place during the same period eight years ago.โ
Re the requirement for suits in the Oval Office: Were I a congressman, I would sponsor a bill requiring members of Trump's cabinet and visiting GOP legislators to wear an organ grinder monkey suit while in the Oval Office, not to be considered complete without the traditional cap.
I'm a little worried about a scenario where the SSA decides I'm dead (and stops putting my hard-earned benefits into my bank account). A couple of months ago, my daughter informed me, after doing an online ancestry search, that I was dead. I looked, and sure enough, I was shown as having died. Took a week or so to correct it; I imagine it would take longer to convince the government. #LivingDead
Fascists start by marginalizing and brutalizing the most vulnerable populations, and work their way up from there as the general population accepts it. Fascism feeds on racism, misogyny, and othering.
Example: Musk referring to people who disagree with him as NPCs (non-player characters) is an example of othering, no different than Nazis in 1939 referring to jews as vermin.
