[TRUMP:] "Within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an EO banning any federal dept or agency from colluding with any organization, business, or person to censor, limit, categorize, or impede the lawful speech of American citizens."

Fetterman to @daveweigel on forcing Biden aside: "For those that decided and moved to break Biden, and then you got the election that you wanted, it’s appropriate to own the outcome and fallout....When you take a reasonable, calculated risk to fuck around, embrace your culpability for what you found out."

Our ancestors defeated Nazi tyranny only to see our politicians import theological Islamic fascism to Europe.

Jewish girl Anne Frank spent much of her life hiding in the Netherlands from Nazis that eventually found her and killed her.

Today Jews attending football matches are targeted and attacked by Muslim mobs hunting in packs, waving Palestinian flags, burning Israeli ones and kicking the shit out of anyone that dares to fly it in that same country at a football game.

What on earth have we done? Who gave their consent to this?

Decompressing from walking on eggshells for the past four years.

I have found the last four years to be an almost intolerable period. A very un-American period in that any questioning, any opinions, any likes or dislikes were held up to a very limited list of "permitted positions" in order to assess acceptability. 2/

I've never in my life known that to be an American environment. It's an environment I have encountered in smaller groupings (a church, a private club,a clique), but never before as a national blanket. It has been suffocating. Common sense was discarded, intellectual discussion was demonized. Only "permitted position" behavior and speech was "allowed." Complete intolerance became almost a religion and one's professional and social life was threatened almost constantly. Those that spoke otherwise were ruined as a warning to others.

Their destruction was displayed in the "town square" of social media for all to see. This was the #MeMeMeMeToo moment, where every effort was made to divert attention to oneself, instead of recognizing how one contributes to the whole.This was the era of trying to exercise control over those who did not want to follow the crowd and has their own ideas about what they needed to do. This dampened our culture and innovation, bringing people to even think that generative #AI, a regurgitation of the past, was actually our cultural future.

When you starve a society of those called to be independent thinkers and cultural and intellectual innovators, you rob that society of any forward movement. Those that tried to impose that control maintained a kind of "hall monitor" position by threatening others with damning labels like "Sexist," "racist," "homophobic," etc, when the free-thinking and questioning was nothing of the sort. However, the mob mentality that followed caused these social convictions when there was often no evidence to support them.

I am neither one extreme or the other, but am one of the millions of people who believe in common sense, and that everyone should be free to live their lives however they want, unless that freedom interferes with someone else's freedom to live their own life. That's it. 10/fin

Don't think so...

Professor/NYT columnist Tressie McMillian Cottom urges Dems to double down on identity politics "[Trump] tapped into one of the most powerful of American identities, he tapped into white identity...That means you should double down on identities of your base."
