Ummm, help me understand. The greatest generation fought against Nazis in WWII and said that the Hitler Youth program was problematic but are now championing the creation of similar orgs in our schools? The rebrand is quite alarming.

Are you reading the NashVillager? Toady's intro by @catherinejsweeney.bsky.social has me feeling seen! I am a sunshine girl. Darkness at 430p is horrible! I am actually dreading Christmas this year because we are staying here. I want a palm tree holiday!

We have 3 more yrs of this. I pray the republic will be standing at the end of 47's reign. (I use that word because this is no longer an admin, it is an unchecked monarchy led by a wannabe boy king.) God bless America because we need it.

And before you get it twisted there is nothing more American than calling out her ills & demanding that she lives up to her creed. As Dunbar said, I too am America but now that her missteps are visible abroad & at home, we can't ignore it.

And maybe that is the the point. We believed our own hype & couldn't really see ourselves. When others called out our sins, we ignored them or didn't believe them. Not us? We are the shining city on hill. But are we?

Also, I spoke w/a friend yesterday & reiterated that Maga was birthed out of the Tea Party. When McCain selected Sarah Palin as his running mate, he legitimized this "I can say anything nonsensical and get elected" movement. And now here we are. We've become what we've been taught to fight against.

I wonder if we had been more definitive in the after math of the Civil War in dealing w/the successionists if we would be in a better place now. To often we sweep misdeeds under the rug for "peace," not understanding that peace w/o penance & remorse is just leaving a problem for another generation.

Anyone else having a crisis of conscience right now? Part of me still believes in a free and just world. I want to turn the other cheek and believe that good will overpower evil. But the other side of me is like, F-them all.

The folks' building cages to put people in are the spiritual descendants of the people who used to dress in their Sunday best to watch Black folks getting lynched. Same people who created lynching postcards. This evil has always been present.

I need Dems to out plan, out maneuver & out work the GOP. Not out soundbite or out tweet. Like get in the room and come back with a plan. Matter of fact, call @staceyabrams.com and ask her what she has in her back pocket to assist you. I am sick of this shit.

I do want to know what phrase conveys "I don't condone Oct 7 but also do not condone the erasure of a people. I want a world in which people can love and worship without getting killed. I believe that every genocide is wrong. Call it crusades, extremist, Jihad, terrorism - but it is all wrong."

Instead of riots, I suggest a work stoppage. 48hrs - no spending, no working, no nothing. Folks stay at home. Don't give 47 the satisfaction of using the military on Black and Brown folks
