dc: there aren’t even two sides of the same anything right now

Let’s start with what we know. Some­one with Trump’s psy­cho­log­i­cal make­up, when faced with facts and events that are un­pleas­ant, that he per­ceives as a threat to his self-im­age and pub­lic stand­ing, sim­ply de­nies them. We saw that re­peat­ed­ly dur­ing the ear­ly part of the pan­dem­ic, when the pres­i­dent was giv­ing false re­as­sur­ance and spread­ing false in­for­ma­tion one day af­ter another.”
Pe­ter Wehn­er, The Atlantic

 

You want ven­ti­la­tors and masks from the Fed­er­al Government’s re­serves to treat your citizens? 

Well, Gov­er­nors have to treat me well, it’s a two-way street.”

Pres­i­dent Trump, 24 March 2020

 

Nar­cis­sis­tic psychopath.

And so much of the in­som­nia dri­ven by this pan­dem­ic is not want­i­ng to leave a wheel you aren’t steer­ing in the first place.

And you can still be ‘con­ser­v­a­tive’ but if the GOP is no longer ac­tu­al­ly con­ser­v­a­tive then you’re just be­ing Re­pub­li­can, which is just a team name that can mean any­thing the cult wants it to at any time.

Here’s some­thing you can use if you run into a “Not all Re­pub­li­cans” Republican:

To pre­tend that Re­pub­li­cans aren’t mono­lith­ic be­comes flim­si­er *every sin­gle time* they get the White House (ya know with­out a pop­u­lar vote man­date or any­thing sil­ly like that) and then have to de­fend in­de­fen­si­ble non­sense from aw­ful lead­ers. Then they pull that “um er I’m uh in­de­pen­dent” horse­shit while still vot­ing straight R down the line.

Every re­pub­li­can is re­spon­si­ble for this garbage fire of an ad­min­is­tra­tion and their si­lence at its worst as­pects (of which there are so so many) is the same as endorsement.

So that “no true Scots­man” shit doesn’t play.

*Tai­lor it how you wish. No at­tri­bu­tion necessary*

We’re see­ing a day/night dif­fer­ence in Wash­ing­ton right now.

We have one im­per­fect par­ty fight­ing for us and one cadre of greed-based mon­sters hap­py to ruin us all for their donors and their portfolios.

You Re­pub­li­cans nev­er get to call your­selves “pro life.”

Ever.

Again.

Again. RE­PUB­LI­CANS ARE NOT ON YOUR SIDE.

They have nev­er been on your side.

They will nev­er be on your side.

 

I nev­er thought Porn­hub would take the col­lec­tive health and well be­ing of the coun­try more se­ri­ous­ly than the Pres­i­dent but here we are.”
John­ny Taylor

 

Face­book. Where you find out that that guy that did that one song you liked when you were 19 is a fas­cist mo­ron (this has hap­pened like 4 times now).

One fun­ny trope about Face­book (and it’s *very* Facebook):

The at­trac­tive woman who is com­pelled to speak about pol­i­tics now and her com­ments im­me­di­ate­ly be­come a mine­field of all the thirsty mid­dle aged dudes that friend­ed her back when things were less crazy and they get real con­de­scend­ing about pol­i­tics in her com­ments now that they’re con­front­ed with the harsh re­al­i­ty that the pret­ty lady has opin­ions and can talk and stuff.

 

Ron­nie Bar­nett come get ya boy he drunk!

Like, If we make it through this we de­serve reunions.

R.E.M., Oa­sis, Talk­ing Heads, even made-up bands like Josie and the Pussycats.

 


Ha­ha­ha­ha­ha­ha­hah holyyyyy shit.

What a headline.

What even Om­a­ha World-Her­ald?

OK maybe I’m high (I am ac­tu­al­ly very high) but this head­line is kin­da ba­nanas no?

 

Told you. Right wingers get in line and parrot.

 

 

The sto­ries com­ing from New York hos­pi­tals are hor­rif­ic. The doc­tors and nurs­es are al­ready ex­haust­ed phys­i­cal­ly and men­tal­ly and this is only the be­gin­ning. They are get­ting sick. I am be­tween fu­ri­ous and heart-bro­ken. Many of these deaths are on Trump’s hands.”
—Melis­sa Martin

 

Memo from a large mid­west­ern hos­pi­tal go­ing around.

This is also the case in Wash­ing­ton and is be­com­ing the case in New York and soon your town:

It’s not Obama’s fault.
It’s not Congress.
It’s not lib­er­als or the media.

This is square on the Trump ad­min­is­tra­tions non-re­ac­tion to this cri­sis at every turn. And if you bring up “bu- bu- he closed Chi­na!” as if that’s the only thing that mat­ters I hope you catch this shit next.

We are now ra­tioning emer­gency care. Un­der the most straight no chas­er cap­i­tal­ist gov­ern­ment we’ve had in decades. This is what re­pub­li­cans have giv­en us and it’s by de­sign. If you sur­vive til No­vem­ber you have a *duty* to vote them all out. No third par­ties. No write ins. No preen­ing pea­cock­ing about your con­science. No vot­ing for what­ev­er 1% polling re­pub­li­can makes you feel like it’s not your problem.

Vote. Them all. Out. Every republican.

They did this to us.

 

Sober­ing, strik­ing and very smart ed­i­to­r­i­al design.
