GOP/Trump Goal - Make Racism, Bigotry, Misogyny, Discrimination Politically Correct/Acceptable.

We are becoming more Orwellian by the day. The GOP/Trump, RW Christians, & RW hate media have gone a long way to make racism, bigotry, misogyny, and discrimination politically correct and acceptable again. Now we see daily reports of individuals feeling free to openly lash out in such a manner. It no longer is taboo. And the GOP establishment frequently makes remarks about these issues with impunity.

They are normalizing this kind of hate speech every day. And many individuals nation wide are following their example. Lying about everything is normal and a new reality. Truth has no value and all absolute facts have another side no matter who wrong. 2=2 is now 5. And the sun spins around the flat earth.

The US cannot survive this new reality. And it divides us from the rest of the world.

A circle of accusations thrown out on TV for entertainment value, but with a vindictive purpose or barb.

Only the skeptical will weather this storm.

There is far more to do once the shithole state is fully developed.
