Not possible as long as 90% of the public just need to be told that trans people are evil. I'm sorry man. I'm glad you're optimistic but I'm increasingly convinced this is going to end in violence.
Even worse. I don't know why they show up and pretend to be journalists. They are just propaganda mouthpieces anymore. And they have no loyalty to each other as journalists. If one of them gets ignored by the White House they just allow it and move on rather than imagining themselves as the target instead. It's sick. This country is absolutely fucked and the populace is to blame.
It's not changing minds. They laugh at the cratering stock market and subsequent outrage. They're gonna need something a little more corporeal than a loud protest chant.
A real win is increasingly seeming to require flames.
They aren't changing any Trumpist minds. They just aren't. The stock market could reach zero valuation and theyd still be shilling for Trump.
Pull the battery out?
You're not wrong. We need riots weeks ago.
What negative press? His supporters are all in. They're brigading every online message board and spamming about how this is great for the country.
Mackerel is great too! If you like mackerel you should definitely try some sardines in olive oil. I recommend the King Oscar sardines in olive oil as a easy to acquire starter. The smaller the sardine, the better their flavor and texture tends to be. Bigger sardines tend to get a bit more flaky and mellow in the can.
Wait, being convicted ends political careers? Hitler and Trump wore their convictions with honor and used them to gin up support to great effect. Who's to say Le Pen doesn't somehow do the same?
Well said. We need to unite to counter this stuff. The right is definitely united. Fascism is very attractive to the average voter.
Saltines with sardines, mmmm.
Yeah, you're not wrong, that's another path. Full blown authoritarianism.
Yes, exactly. They used Medvedev as an example.
They've already installed a guy that hasn't been vetted and cleared that is tearing out the guts of our government at his whimsy and without oversight. They're breaking the law in egregious ways and getting away with it in real time. There is only one way left to hold these people accountable.
Just heard an interview on BBC radio this morning with an American explaining that there are avenues for Trump to do this by abusing the line of succession. It sounds like they want to appoint him as Speaker of the House and then have the president and vice president abdicate.
If you like rap, or well, even if you don't, listen to Death of a Constable by Brian Ennals and Infinity Knives.
Israel has killed more women and children than any other demographic. They have committed a genocide and the US president has called for an intensification and expansion of the genocide. Even going so far as to say he wants to ethnically cleanse Gaza.
