I learned about him only a few weeks ago when Sanders sent me endorsement emails. And then I soon learned that he thinks women should avoid rape by wearing Kevlar underwear and not getting drunk. And that Black people don't tip. His character flaws don't depend on when I found out about him.

And Tulsi Gabbards. And Alex Villanuevas.

Ask anyone in Los Angeles about MAGA BIGOTS who pretend to be progressive in order to get elected. We're PAINFULLY familiar with the phenomenon.

Corrupt MAGA BIGOT Alex Villanueva, former LA COUNTY Sheriff who ran and was elected as a progressive on a platform of police reform that would get rid of police gangs in the LAPD. He was MAGA the whole time. We were able to get rid of him, but not before he did PLENTY of damage.

BULL. SHIT.
KEEPING him until it was far too late to mount a proper PRESIDENTIAL campaign that, when it failed, we conveniently blamed on the Black woman we hung out to dry. THAT'S what got us Trump. And Biden was just too old, not a dishonest BIGOT. There is plenty of time to replace this asshole.

These are people who are INCAPABLE of learning. It's MIND BOGGLING.

Hers is not a rhetorical question. She is simply asking why. MAGA will provide the lie she needs to tell herself and others any minute now. She is far from lost in MAGA land.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 13h

Or forgiveness down the line.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 14h

Ah, so you prefer NEW corrupt candidates. Super smart. 🙄
I'm done with this conversation.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 15h

I think at least it was about to. Circa 2017 when ME TOO took off. But then we got MAGA'd. These people aren't happy just dismantling 60 years of civil rights. They aim to reverse the Enlightenment Period.

So you're cool with aCciDenTal NAZIS, so you'll probs LOVE his advice to women for avoiding rape:
“Take some responsibility for themselves” and “not get so f----d up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.”
He'd also like to know why "Black people don't tip."
Helluva leader.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

Oh! Maybe I can help. Here's his advice to women in the military about what to do to avoid rape:
“Take some responsibility for themselves” and “not get so f----d up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.”
What a swell guy, right? True leadership material.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

Tell them all how women should avoid rape in the military, sir. You know... how they should
“Take some responsibility for themselves” and “not get so f----d up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.”
Bet they'll LOVE IT!

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

There's an AWFUL LOT of that going around.
Which is to say, swearing. Blaming women for rape is as old as time.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

Well, if they're NAZI TATTOOS, say goodbye to elected office.
Also, since you're so cool with electing Nazis, wait'll you hear how he thinks women should avoid rape:
“Take some responsibility and don't get so fucked up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.”
Swell guy, right?!

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

He said women in the military who didn't want to be raped should:
“Take some responsibility for themselves and not get so fucked up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.”

I was thinking the next administration could just make it the NAACP Wing.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

You are A VOTER in a DEMOCRACY,FFS. You have OBLIGATIONS.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

Ridiculous. You don't give Nazis leadership roles if you care about fascism or bigotry. And If he aCCiDenTaLlY got a Nazi tattoo (he did not), and kept it for TWENTY YEARS until opposition research TOLD him it was a Nazi tattoo, he IS NOT FIT TO LEAD. It's the easiest call in the world.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 16h

Donald Trump? Is manifesting the GOPs fascist dreamscape! And they don't have to lift a thumb. This isn't GOP fear, it's GLEEEEE.
Trump is giving bigots everything they've ever wanted but never thought they could get away with.
They. Are. In. Awe.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 17h

You. Are. Not. Making. Sense. He HAS the tattoo. NO ONE is disputing that. 🙄

People really need to wrap their heads around HOW ATTENUATED our election cycles have gotten.

They're acting like the Maine primary was a race between Platner and Mills only and it's too late for anyone else to jump in.

The deadline to REGISTER FOR IT is in MARCH!

Go out and recruit SOMEONE ELSE

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 19h

People love to denigrate women by weaponizing our bodies using crude slang as a way to call men weak. Women are not weak and our genitals are not symbols of masculine failure.

mizbeck @mizzbeck.bsky.social · 20h

Democrats must stop running against Trump and start running against the ENTIRE GOP that is FULLY onboard with destroying our democracy. Trump isn't running again and the fascism is fully crystallized within his crime syndicate masquerading as a political party. THEY are the ones to defeat now.
