Left Wing Apathy

A middle east radical once said, "Whoever is not with me is against me and whoever does not gather with me is scattering."

Not to worry

I am sure the right wing apologists (our equivalent of the Log Cabin Republicans) on this site will justify it somehow.

I am not at all surprised there has been an emboldenment of those shit asses.

I feel they have pushed us too far and it needs to be repaid in kind somehow.

Radical Thought

From what I've read, the radical I quoted above wasn't a fan of repaying in kind . . . more of a turn the other cheek kind of guy.

The real guy would probably get run out of

So What Else Is New

I've said it before, rights that are not secured by laws, and preferably Constituational amendments, are not rights at all, just tolerances. They can disappear as quickly as they appeared, or faster. Here in the bible belt, the level of intolerance has not changed in the last 10 years, and may have even gotten slightly worse. I won't have to worry about it much longer, but you younger people are in for a ride.

Like Han Solo told a young Luke Skywalker, "Don't get cocky, kid!"

George Carlin

Rights of people are under threat

Take the proposed law in New Hampshire that would bad a woman from seeking a termination if the father objects.
The Handmaids Tale was a warning, not a guidebook to the subjugation of women (like 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 etc in different aspects).
There are a lot of people from outside the USA looking at this and shaking their heads in disbelief at how far and how fast the USA is regressing back to the days of the Puritans where only white males matter.
I fear that it will get a lot worse after the mid-terms and that makes me very sad.

Mid-Terms

Do you have the same dreams that I do where you're taking a mid-term test and you're naked and completely unprepared.

Elbridge Gerry must be spinning in his grave with delight.
