PREACH!

Last edited Fri Nov 20, 2020, 08:35 AM - Edit history (1)



Sedition is incitement of discontent or rebellion. It’s illegal and the Republican Party is actively engaging in it. Enough! We had an election. Our leaders need to lead!
@JoeBiden
@KamalaHarris





She is NOT holding back...
Boom. Boom. Shake the room.

Republicans at this point wanting to emulate a third rate dictatorship, being polite is not going to be the ticket back to a stable democracy.

Of course it is. She sounds insane. It's not a good look for Democrats. I'm a Democrat. It's an embarrassment. This video is nothing to boast about.

You must not know very many Democrats, if you're ashamed of Democrats maybe you shouldn't listen to any. This lady isn't very far out there compared to, I don't know what percent of Democrats pretty certifiable but that's one of the reasons why we're a diverse big tent party. Did you hear Michael Moore during the primaries? He sounded crazy, and if you heard the phrasing coming from De Niro? Two much more visible Democrats, rather than this lady that I've never heard of until now who really isn't going to reach that many people

GMAFB, will ya? Good grief. I never said I was "ashamed of Democrats" and you know it. Why are you attacking me with false statements?

This is not a good look. She's fringe. I'm not impressed. Internet kooks who rant like this are not doing us any favors. She's begging to be ridiculed, and I'm happy to oblige.

Yuk! --- Of course the left-most of our party will whoop and hootnholler and there will be high-fives and fist-pumping all around, but she's sets a poor example and is not representative of our party. This type of behavior does not win elections nor influence people or create trust or make allies. I'm sure somewhere in her personal video collection is an equally offensive and sanctimonious rant about the Lincoln Project.

Did you hear Michael Moore during the primaries?
Yep, he's also a jerk. 100% certifiable (as are all Ralph Nader and Jill Stein voters.)

I've never heard of until now who really isn't going to reach that many people
So why so defensive, or so offended on her behalf?

Of course she's "entitled to her opinion" and she's "free to express herself" ... but that doesn't mean that the way she does those things is the best or most effective way to affect change. She's merely preaching to the choir and making a spectacle of herself in the process.

I'm not impressed. She doesn't do anything for me... except make me SMH and RME.

Don't care whether you think it's a good look or not don't care whether Republicans think it's a good look or not, don't care if you like the Lincoln project or not. Michael Moore was a Bernie supporter not a third party. I care more about the people in our own party who try to divide us, and criticized us when they should be criticizing Republicans and their policies

I'm angry at Republicans also. I despise them. But I don't use that as an excuse to attack Biden, or second-guess him and his agenda/goals... or to make Democrats look like some head-bobbing finger-snapping Real Housewife of [Insert_City]. Her behavior is ridiculous. I'm reminded of the "crazy neighbor" videos or the "Karen meltdown" videos. The only thing missing was someone being called "DARK SIDED!"

We can do better than this. Why celebrate and encourage this type of embarrassing display?

I’m just so overwhelmingly sick of this chicanery foisted upon us by the buffoon and his mad cult. I didn’t see it as against Biden, perhaps I should give it another listen.

All I know for sure is that I’ve had to turn off the news because I’m becoming so angry and frustrated.

for other messages being slipped in. Sooo common. But whether intentional or unintentional, hits are hits. Those not vulnerable may see them as nothings, while they impact their targets hard.
