Voted against a MAGA-fascist incumbent in NM 2 today.

LET'S GO GABE!!!

T-minus 28 minutes till polls close here in the Land of Enchantment.

If you can, please watch the Lynn Novick, Sarah Botstein, and Ken Burns: USA and the Holocaust

This is an amazing account of how U.S. antisemitism contributed to the horrors of the 30s and 40s. The analog between American fascists then, and American fascists now is chilling, and, frankly, a clarion call.

Join the Movement to Unplug Fox "News"

I'm sure many here have already joined this movement, and likely (hopefully) this has been posted here before, but it is something that can't be reiterated often enough:

Posted without comment. Nobel Laureate Mr. Bob Dylan: He tried to warn us ...

Rights to abortion, contraception, marriage, relationships, and privacy ARE in the US Constitution!!

Amendment IX:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people

In 1791, women had a right to terminate a pregnancy up until quickening, and that was a legal doctrine that went back centuries under British Common Law.

Sorry this needs to be said still in 2022 -- Nazi punks: FUCK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TFG reminds me of Napoleon.

No, not the diminutive fellow from Corsica.

I mean the PIG from Orwell's Animal Farm. (I'm re-reading the book for the first time since high school)

To be clear, the PIG would be less corpulent and have a higher IQ, but their methods are quite similar.

Been rereading 1984; Orwell described the MAGA cult to a T, read this:

Describing Parsons (who is later turned in for thoughtcrime by his own daughter):
"He was a fattish but active man of paralysing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasms -- one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the Thought Police, the stability of the Party depended."

Is that not the classic description of a Trumpinista?

Later, during Winston's torture, the evil party apparachik OBrien tells us how the party views are so close to the MAGA cultists:
"There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy. There will be no art, no literature, no science."
