(52,999 posts)and get away with it. Someone should really do something about that.
Your OP might have a point if you stopped with Bernie (not that I'd agree, but it would at least make some sense), but including Sarandon assumes a unity with the people who voted to put Trump in office. Meanwhile, you express no objection to the plethora of posts demanding that one Democrat after another be primaried.
Of course you could simply trash threads you didn't like, but that wouldn't satisfy the more important goal of controlling speech and thought. You're not interested in unity. What you want is to create a space where no one is allowed to post anything that you disagree with.
Oh, and Fuck Susan Sarandon. She and those like her chose to inflict suffering and death on the poor and the vulnerable, and Sarandon has said she enjoys the "energy" that comes from such extreme privation and anxiety. I will not be "unified" around a sick enjoyment from poverty, deportation, death, and nuclear war. You can continue to lead the great and noble cause of ensuring multimillionaire Trump humpers like Sarandon be subject to no criticism. I don't share your priorities or your values. But then I'm a Democrat. I prefer to unite around the Democratic Party and Democratic values rather than reverence for the super rich who actively promoted the election of an unstable narcissist and fascist. Trump just condemned millions of low- and middle-income Americans to illness and death through executive order today, and he stands poised to launch a nuclear war. But you keep your priorities on ensuring Sarandon not be subject to criticism. We all have our priorities.
