**Oh evangelists, you can fuck right off.** If THIS is the message you want to evangelize (a message of bitter, narrow-minded hatred), it’s obvious to everyone but you that your self-righteous, sanctimonious core is … rotten. Go proselytize at the face of someone who cares, but don’t expect much.

Donald Trump has made several statements over the years that have been criticized for potentially inciting or encouraging violence, which some have described as examples of "stochastic terrorism." This term refers to the use of language and rhetoric that can incite individuals to commit acts of violence, without directly calling for such actions, allowing the speaker to maintain plausible deniability. One of the most notable instances was Trump's response to the events in Charlottesville in 2017, where he suggested that among the torch-wielding white supremacists, there were some "very fine people." This, along with his attacks on various groups and individuals, has been seen as a form of incitement. For instance, Trump's call to "Liberate Michigan!" amidst COVID-19 restrictions, which was followed by plots against Governor Gretchen Whitmer, exemplifies this pattern. His refusal to unequivocally condemn the neofascist group, the Proud Boys, instead telling them to "stand back and stand by" during a presidential debate, has also been highlighted as an example. Furthermore, Trump's rhetoric has been linked to increased threats and violence against individuals and groups he opposes. For example, after accusing General Mark Milley of treason, Trump hinted at a historically severe punishment for such acts, potentially inciting violence against Milley. Similar rhetoric was directed at news organizations like NBC News and MSNBC, which he accused of committing treason, a charge that historically carries the death penalty. These instances are seen as ways Trump communicates to his followers about who his enemies are, sometimes leading to threats or acts of violence against those individuals or entities. The underlying concern with such statements is not just the immediate threat of violence but also the broader impact on democratic norms and the safety of individuals. The discussions and analyses suggest that this pattern of rhetoric has contributed to a heightened atmosphere of division and hostility, raising serious concerns about the potential for further violence and the undermining of democratic institutions.

As a racial minority, so do we, but apparently people in Texas think they should be able to kill suspected migrants. Spoiler, you can’t tell I’m a citizen until you physically stop me and get my identification so I can be killed for just going on a walk. In the south, I’ve been stopped and searched for driving the speed limit aka 60 in a 60 and allegedly crossing a yellow line at some point when cops followed me for over 10 minutes. This shit has been going on for decades. We all just want to live, but our existence is apparently controversial.

The GOP is trying to have it both ways. Parental choice/rights for education in the form of vouchers for private/religious institutions, but then turning around claiming it’s the states right to say acknowledging trans is somehow child abuse. Show me one study that says parents of trans kids have a higher chance of abuse than religious clergy.

Afghanistan may have already been the GOP's Afghanistan because they set the withdrawal in motion. In any case, though, the lesson seems to be that the so-called forever wars are just the opposite. The Broken Windows Theory of crime prevention, applies all the more so to geo-politics, to broken countries, and to criminal autocrats. The lesson should be withdrawal from Afghanistan cost the much greater cost of the Ukraine War, and withdrawal from Ukraine would likely cost the much greater cost of a Taiwan war.

MAGA has infested Florida led by that weasel DeSantis. No state income tax is a populist charm bracelet, but very stupid public policy. It starves the legislature from having programs that ease the burdens of middle class/working class people. And given the toxicity of its culture and warring against bullshit notions of ‘wokeness’ , book banning , hurricanes, climate change, home insurance spikes, housing unaffordability and the general stench of DeSantis, the bloom is off the rose. The flocking in is now replaced by the torrents of the disillusioned leaving. The decreasing numbers makes everything worse with declining sales/consumption taxes. No state income tax is now a yoke around the neck of DeSantis. And then the guns….the fear of saying the wrong thing to offend the wrong person…

"Democrats are signaling that they will save Johnson if he moves a Ukraine bill they can support. But if he moves a bill that is narrower than their demands, or includes new border restrictions, he risks putting off both Democrats and right-wing Republicans who are opposed to a dollar more for Ukraine. Plus, adding spending cuts to offset the Ukraine package — as Gaetz and other hardliners want— would prompt stiff Democratic opposition." Johnson is over. It's a lose-lose game for him.

How sad that something as critical to our national security like stopping Russian imperialism in Ukraine is bandied about as a trinket that can be traded for some imaginary vendetta. The Republican party has gone so far off the rails that they would be totally repudiated by the Republicans of the foregone era. The thugs, the malcontents, the MAGAires have no policy other than sheer destruction and obstruction. The real crimes are those who know what's going on and are staying silent in the Republican Party.

I'm not a believer, and today some guy wished me a happy Easter. I said, "You, too." Why do these people think they have an inalienable right to every day of the year? I remember some years ago, a buddy I worked for changed how he was known from John, because there was another John in our very small office. He told everyone he would be going by J.C., because they were his initials. A woman in the office said, "There's only ONE J.C.!" John was incredulous. I mean, why should Christ have a monopoly on those initials? You know how long Transgender Day of Visibility has been observed? Since 2009. This year, it happened to fall on Easter (or, as my Orthodox friends refer to it: American Easter). That's the nature of calendars, and Easter is the holiday that moved around. Those Republicans aren't leading. They're pandering, as usual.

One thing that continually gets ignored about the Afghanistan withdrawal is that Trump had directed it. Biden was simply doing the honourable thing by upholding the direction and policy of his predecessor, even though it was a poor choice. Trumps order to withdraw from Afghanistan was a terrible international policy decision because it left US allies feeling betrayed, creating a feeling of resentment and distrust. The next time the US goes to the negotiating table with those allies, it will be so much more difficult for the US to achieve their objective. It's very much a Trump style policy, and yet Biden cops the flak for it.

First of all, Easter falls on a different day every year. Specifically, the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox. This is not a religious holiday. This is the most pagan of holidays so the Christians don’t get a say until they can explain how someone can be “resurrected” on a different day every year…I’ll wait. Second, this year Easter happens to fall on Transgender Day of Visibility, so it makes sense that today would be the day that this would be addressed.

*White House defends Transgender Day of Visibility as leading Republicans go on attack* Just the framing of this shows how shitty the MSM is. Makes the Biden White House sound feckless, "defensive", while the Republicans are strong, on the offense. The framing plays it as a political game, two equally valid sides, positionally, with one side "winning" the encounter. The MSM absolutely sucks and they're the best we can hope for. And people blame the Democrats for "not messaging well."

Seems Democrats should push for a Federal eVerify employer mandate. This will put farms and factories reliant on undocumented immigrants out of business unless/until they pressure their GOP representatives to legalize such immigrants, splitting the pro-business GOP from the nativist GOP. The nativist GOP will lose funding and the pro-business GOP will either reform the GOP or switch parties. Legalizing immigrants has a benefit of reducing the vulnerability of domestic undocumented immigrant communities to infiltration by Jalisco New Generation, as warned against by Peter Zeihan (undocumented immigrants are less likely to seek help from law enforcement

We supposed that must be the love thy neighbour thing they keep going on about. 3) my 9 year old literally pointed and laughed at a sign that said both “God bless America” and “FUCK JOE BIDEN” while draped with a pair of booty shorts that had a slogan denigrating to women. He 100% understood the hypocrisy on full display throughout the city.

*Utah’s* [*Equal Opportunities Initiatives*](https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fle.utah.gov%2F~2024%2Fbills%2Fstatic%2FHB0261.html)*, or H.B. 261, which was signed into law in January, is more promising. It attempts to end the excessive and at times coercive focus on identity in higher education while also trying to protect academic freedom with carve-outs for research and course teaching.* *The law prohibits universities from giving individuals preferential treatment or discriminating against them based on race, color, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, or gender identity. It forbids offices that help students from excluding anyone based on their identity. It bans mandatory campus training sessions that promote differential treatment. It prohibits “discriminatory practices,” such as ascribing “values, morals, or ethical codes, privileges, or beliefs to an individual” because of their identity.* *Yet it makes real compromises with DEI supporters.

On the surface, these states are saying they're doing away with preferential treatments based on identities, as this article implies. The reality though is that isn't the case. This is an open backlash to diversity itself, being done up by fearful and mostly hateful White lawmakers who would rather see the world more white. Like Regan did in the 1980s, this is just a 21st Century dogwhistle.

15 years and then got the heck outta there. Saw it go progressively downhill. Red tide and algae blooms from Lake Okeechobee releases ruined the waters, killed many fish. Covid showed us how self centered people are (mostly native but new folks too). Lost almost the whole neighborhood due to politics. It got ugly. Costs were up too. Food was no cheaper than in CT. Insurance was nuts before Ian. I can only imagine what it must be now. Back in CT. I have to pay taxes but I see where they are going and appreciate it.

He's the reason my son is dead— because of the riot at the Capitol. He's a publicity hound. Trump does whatever will get him votes and helps Donald Trump. There's nothing good about this man."

They said the same thing about gays in the 99s. It was "the gay agenda" back then. It was the exact same agenda "realize we're normal human beings who deserve love and a normal life, just like everyone else". This is the exact agenda right wing idiots are fighting against. They do not want people to see you as normal, human, nor desering of life or love. Theyre blatant about opposing your agenda. They will lose. Hate and evil ALWAYS loses when good people stand together and embrace the differences in others. They're going to lose and it terrifies them. Just as everyone sees homophobia as a backwards mentality now, in 30 years, nobody will admit to being transphobic except those with nazi tattoos on their faces. Hate always loses.
