Interesting ideas for anyone trying to figure out the MAGA mindset or the abusive mindset; they seen to be identical.
Everything that is wrong with the GOP can be explained in these 4 charts
The principles of Abuse
The failures of racism
The Special Snowflake chart
The Virtue/Abuse Quadrant chart

Mar A Lago face IS like a drag queen look
Over-emphasizing characteristics some consider feminine is the beauty ideal of the MAGA crowd…and amping up features is drag queen artistry
I think that’s part of why drag queens trigger them.

This drawing was made by one of the 5 year old El Gamal twins. It shows children behind bars with the caption, “I’m 5 years old.”
An immigration judge denied them bond, citing “insufficient assets.” These children could remain in detention for years while their case is appealed.

I hope I live long enough to see this entire regime brought to justice.
So Kyle Rittenhouse, who attended a protest armed with a loaded assault rifle and killed 2 people is a right-wing hero.
But Alex Pretti who had a holstered, permitted handgun, was recording ICE, and tried to help a pepper-sprayed woman deserved to die?
No one is buying this BS.

Some people confuse "human rights" with "politics." When they say they don't want to talk about politics, they should really say, "My rights aren't threatened yet, and it makes me uncomfortable to acknowledge that the rights of others are being trampled." That is, if they're even paying attention.
This is probably the most accurate description.
Someone in their mid-50s today told me that this is the first time he had thought about or been affected by politics. And that guy is actively guarding buildings and his coworkers from ICE.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
