In fact, they refuse to see the image that emerges because it is inconvenient.

Who knew connect-a-dot would be such an important adult skill? That was my fav activity when I was a kid.

On Edit: FDR was correct! This qpube bs of stolen election only serves their gerrymandering efforts!

A ruthless fascistic takeover is the way to their end. Experts have been watching Trump's actions connect dots along a well known path to coup and takeover through his presidency.

Including almost certainly weaponizing epidemic disease, a well-known plan other authoritarian power grabbers have followed to success.

That this pos is not in prison is, to me, surreal! This is how we ended up where we are - coddling old rich white men and the women devoid of self-esteem who enable them.

three red banners. It is useless to argue anything with these people. Like Biden is calling out for socialisms. China in 1950's, 60's?

from Trump, though, true or not. I didn't know what "3 red lines" was, but a quick google took care of that.

Big difference from wanting communal socialism and torture, murder everyone but chosen white people.

do a simple initial cull of Nazi/fascist and other long established hate symbols.

As the FIRST step, assigned to an intern perhaps, to be followed by the rest of the due diligence.
