if a random person locked their spouse in a closet so the spouse couldn’t vote, that’s a punishable crime

if a state senator takes some policy action to prevent thousands of people like that spouse from voting, that’s not a crime?

no, that should be a long jail sentence

regular murder is bad but only a bureaucrat or a billionaire or megacorp can harm or kill thousands or millions with a stroke of a pen

Dean made one exuberant yelling noise and the entire political media declared him a dead man walking.

NPR's Talk of the Nation had a weekly political segment and the introduction included the Dean Scream until the show ended in 2013.

But our Fourth Estate decided fucking kids is no big deal.
For four days tv news played Howard Dean screaming 633 times back in 2004!

The best defense against rumors and false allegations are my own words. I stand by my words.

It is impossible to do stand by one's words when someone deletes them and then rewrites them – which is what the BlueSky administrators did.

Sadly they have broadly the same restrictions. 😩 Smashwords does not, but Smashwords is ebooks-only.

It’s controversial to have self compassion and heal your inner child because it works.

It’s controversial to center the experience of children and make sure they have all the resources they need to thrive, because it works.

We burn down the old hierarchy with love.

The foundational instinct of Conservatism is, has always been, and will always be; projection. They know they are evil, and the only thing they can think to do about it is point the finger in the other direction.
