RESIST. Facts matter. Truth matters. Reality matters. Honesty matters. Integrity matters. Justice matters. Humanity matters. Act and vote accordingly. 🔵 in a red state. Husband. Dad. Ally to the marginalized. But mostly... Pretty darned nerdy.

Mon Mothma said what needed to be said in opposition to an evil, authoritarian regime.

Fictional Star Wars character Senator Mon Mothma addresses the Imperial Senate from her pod. Text reads:

"The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest."

It's this gang of white supremacist terrorists versus the good people of this Republic.

"Reverse imposter syndrome" sums up this airhead perfectly.

If a masked thug approaches me with no law enforcement credentials, no badge, no warrant, and no probable cause, why should I respect their authority?

Thought experiment:

Any dedicated insurgent group could dress up in ICE goon gear, masked and armed, and murder or kidnap civilians or federal agents in broad daylight. And zoom away with no consequences.

Is that what we want?

It's not what I want.

Yeah Sean we all watched "For All Mankind" but the difference is the space program didn't have dipshits like you in charge in that fictional reality.

Dipshit.

Smoke alarm 'chirp' is a crime against humanity.

Second only to the people who designed the housing you have to battle to replace the 9V battery.

You're being too kind.

dub273 @dub273.bsky.social · 14h

And obviously they're being paid to protest...

Bullshit, you lying, gaslighting FUCK.

I hate everything about the Proud Boys and I hate everything about your white supremacist ass.

For FREE.

Indeed.

On occasion, some wingnuts have enough imagination to ponder what happens when the shoe is on the other foot. And question blind obedience.

It's rare, but it happens. And it's welcome.

What. A. Piece. Of.

SHIT.

He won't let anything embarrassing happen to Shitler. He's playing the waiting game, actively working to plunge the country into chaos to keep the pedophile in office indefinitely.

Fuck you Mike Johnson, you traitorous little twerp.

All of us under its spell, we know that it's probably magic.

This administration doesn't give a flip about the law. Thanks to Pee Wee German, they think they can detain, imprison, prosecute, and murder people with impunity.

Resistance is a duty.

Restore the Constitution and restore this Republic!

What are the odds this pipsqueak is collaborating with Miller and the far right to keep the government shut down until martial law is declared?

I guess we'll find out on No Kings Day.
