Re: POTUS 45.10 - Stage Two in Perpetuity
You misunderstood the point of the words I chose Brent. That was bashing in a somewhat sarcastic fashion what I consider the weak response and methods of democrats in today's political climate. Democrats like to appear "above it all" or "intellectual." But the current crisis we're in is a product of the right wings of our businesses, our media, and our government, aided and abetted by voters who either choose to be blind or are blind out of stupidity, and an opposition that for far too long has been bringing knives (or a dictionary) to a gunfight.
The current crisis is not all of our faults. It sure as Hell ain't mine. I have been working hard for over 2 decades now to try to dispel the myths spewing from right wing media and right wing politicians. The organization Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR) published a book 22 years ago about how Rush Limbaugh was peddling lies and propaganda to millions of people and ever since it became sort of a "bible" to me and I have been trying to get people to understand how shows like his and networks like FOX news operate.
I absolutely loath how the common theme all too often is "there will be plenty of time to assign blame and now is not the time. Now we all have to roll up our sleeves and come together." Eff that. The time to blame has been around for a while now. I am NOT to blame, and others like me are also NOT to blame. The right wing is at fault, republicans are at fault, weak kneed democrats are at fault, American voters who should know better are at fault. Don't ever hang trump on me. We need to point fingers at the real culprits. Because these are the people that are actual enemies to our democracy.
