“I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”

It’s the Republicans.

We the Indigenous killers, who are celebrating a man tomorrow that never stepped foot on the mainland, who enslaved and killed countless original people. Yes we are the product of that puritanical nightmare with chains of hypocrisy weighing us down below ground level.

Who's their source, Melania?

Look, when it suits them, republicans change the rules. For example, less than a month ago, the Senate changed the rules to push through a mass of nominees, but now that they own the shutdown, they’re trying to blame democrats for everything. Yes, it's Epstein, it’s also midterms, and Epstein.

Republicans can’t justify their actions, so they try to shift the blame onto others.

Anywhere, anytime ordinary people are given the chance to choose, the choice is the same: freedom, not tyranny; democracy, not dictatorship; the rule of law, not the rule of the secret police.

Very Kind of you, Ray. Much Aloha, your way.

Aloha, Hopeful.

The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.

The makers of the new Tron want to appease Republicans and the Epstein crowd, so they cast Jared Leto.

“In June 2025, nine women accused actor/musician Jared Leto of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior. Some of the accusers alleged that the incidents occurred while they were teenagers.”
