  • True hardcore Christians really have a problem with woo woo spiritual nonsense like some aspects of the wellness movement. They are looking the other way about this concerning the new surgeon general nominee because everything Trump is good to them. But some of you reading this might have relatives that, with gentle prodding, will become uncomfortable with “MAHA”, given the faux spiritual leanings. This can be your “in” to get them questioning the whole Trump thing.

    This is too abstract for most Americans to understand. But talk about it as much as you can; to friends, family, coworkers, anyone. As things get worse and the coup resorts to physical enforcement against resistance, people may start to get a clue.

    And while I’m here, a hardy “fuck you” to: Trump voters, non-voters, $hill Stein voters! Oh sure, Harris was far from idealized perfection… But lesser of two evils is often all you can hope for in this world. Maybe start voting in the small elections -not just the big national ones- if you want experienced, alternative candidates to work their way up.









  • Yeah the protests seemed to have mostly stopped since the election. They achieved their goal of disenfranchising Democrats and getting Trump elected. Whaaat? Yeah I said that. To those who are about to yell at me, I ask this: Who exactly was the protest leadership? I don’t mean your local organizer. I mean who was directing the protests at the national level. I sure as shit don’t know. And if Gaza is sooo much more important than Sudan, the decade long civil wars in Syria and Yemen, the forced relocation of Afghan refugees in Pakistan, and whatever the fuck is going on in the Congo, why have you stopped protesting?



  • Not division, just facts. Millions sat on their hands rather than do the bare minimum to forestall whatever the Hell the right wing is going to unleash on us all. There are plenty of reasons why Trump won and lazy shits who wouldn’t vote in light of Project 2025 are absolutely part of the problem. I’d tell you all to go fuck yourselves, but you already did…
