they're the party of death.

found myself making this reply to 3 diff op’s this a.m. i think this is an appellation that we should do our best to make stick.
from trying to gut the aca, refusing to expand medicaid, treating women as disposable brood mares, letting people rot in jail, cutting poverty programs, refusing to provide safe drinking water all over the damn country, to painting a target on people for being who they are.

so many of their voters are acting out of fear, plain and simple. fear drummed up by highly paid liars. if i could get 1 message through to the other side, it would be-
FEAR THEM. they’re the 1s trying to kill you.


if u r on twitter, maybe rt-

They not only refused to encourage people to get vaccinated, wear masks, and isolate; they actually even mocked us for taking those simple, common sense, life-saving steps.

Then the endless fake debates over exactly how and when black people should be allowed to protest government officials killing then instead of doing a damn thing about it.

I've been referring to them as the Party of Death (POD) and The Death Party for months.

I highly recommend a web blog broadcast 'The Professional Left Broadcast' with Driftglass and Bluegal.

They broadcast three shows.

All excellent but I particularly like their new effort "No Fair Remembering Stuff".

This weeks broadcast really connects with the topic of this post.

What's going on today has been going on for a while.
