I myself almost cried when our first priority after defeating trump wasn't securing our voting rights,
but it made me no less a Democrat. I've watched the Democratic party carry this nation for decades while the GOP concentrated on dismantling our government, our rights, and our laws.

wait 'til those maga boys have to buy tires for their pickup trucks.
I got an estimate for maint. on my jeep last year, but I didn't get it done - I mainly drive my car & the jeep passed inspection. I took my jeep for the repairs this year, the estimate of $1100 became $1600 due to tire prices.

I, too,call for a general strike.

1. Surrender the USA forever
2. Civil War
3. General Strike

The best choice is obvious. Have we already started it with the shutdown?.
I believe we will all scrape rock bottom before GOP voters can psychologically accept the reality and magnitude of their error.

Pre World-War-Woke, anti-woke force numbers were wildly inflated. They even won elections. But they united behind an undefined term. Don't like something? It's woke. (Woke is what the listener hates).
Their numbers are dwindling. They may be starting to find out they don't all hate the same thing.

Trump is arresting citizens for “interference into an ANTIFA investigation”.

Really.

Don’t celebrate - they’ll pass some law that only republicans can bypass a filibuster. You know I’m right. They’re refusing to swear in our reps.

that’s the problem, we can’t prosecute half out government……

I guess we wait for war, then.

I think it's time for a general strike.
Get our 401Ks & IRAs into an FDIC account & out of the market, then working, buying, and playing.
Trump has magas convinced they can live without us.
Let's give them a taste of it. It's our alternative to civil war. I know we'll suffer, too, but it's the USA.

I can't really explain gravity very well. He couldn't explain pudding.

His post isn't just mild brag-whining. He's murdering satire.

In my older days, people would see a ridiculous satire piece and immediately laugh about it. Now maga believes the satire & demands arrests, and we have to stop and check facts before know whether to laugh or not.

I miss happiness.

Or assuming they feel shame. I actually think it's a lie contest. The most fantastic and illogical lies succeed the most in maga.

It's an empty feeling now when elected officials straight up lie about us radical violent leftist election cheating brainwashed pedos.

I mean, this one is pretty much an official NOTIFICATION OF SEPARATION FROM THE USA, but I already thought that when he straight up called us enemies.

DDay Pragmatist @ddaydemocrat.bsky.social · 20h

Trump must be planning something even worse than we expect, if he's getting ready for riots in every state.

I hope our brothers and sisters in the military still remember we're on the same side, since their commander in chief doesn't.

DDay Pragmatist @ddaydemocrat.bsky.social · 20h

wow, I should edit my posts. I get so mad sometimes I just hit post without re-reading...

Who came up with the idea for insurance companies to provide proof of insurance on a sheet of paper instead of a plastic card?
Don't be shy - I promise not to get water into your central console, drop your wallet in the mud, or leave a cold bottle in the warm glove compartment.

We can't rebuild what was lost.
First of all, they're still breaking it.
Maybe it can be reborn.
My gut feel is not until we hit depression-era hardship levels, the maga disinformation program.
We'll have to stand in a soup line with them before they remember that we aren't their enemies.

I feel the same way but I don't think the same way.
I almost cried when our first priority wasn't to secure our voting rights after Biden won and we had some power. It's by far the most important thing.
Se got infrastructure, but our elections are still in peril.

It should be illegal for a president to address the nation and call half of us 'enemies'.

If you go by my reaction, he's a terrorist. It's actually quite terrifying to learn the commander in chief of probably the world's best military thinks you are his enemy.
