How can the Jan. 6 convictions prevent further violence when they are considered heroes and victims. Let's not forget that they may get pardoned.
I agree republicans have the deepest fear. It's what motivates them them to act. It gets them in an emotional state where rational thought goes out the window.
Better speech isn't going to change how republicans think. For one they never peek outside their bubble or even question what they are told. They believe what they are told like it's the gospel. They also have quit holding their own accountable and that is extremely dangerous. It's the biggest threat to democracy IMHO.
I believe the Trump wave has crested and he isn’t going to get the office of President back. We need to turn our attention to mental illness that created the wave in the first place. We are a sick culture that is killing itself as the result of massive internal self hate that is the result of psychological ignorance. Denial grows difficult in the face of extinction.
Why do we hate people who hurt so bad they want to die? Because we feel the same as they do. We want to make them pay for wanting us to pay. Ring around the Rosie ashes ashes we all fall down!
Hush, little baby, don’t you cry; Papa’s going to sing you a lullaby.
Hush little baby don’t say a word; Papa’s going to buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won’t sing, Papa’s going to buy you a golden ring.
If that gold ring turns to brass, Papa’s going to buy you a looking glass.
If that glass begins to crack, Papa’s going to buy you a jumping jack.
If that jumping jack is broke, Papa’s going to buy you a velvet cloak.
If that velvet cloth is coarse, Papa’s going to buy you a rocking horse.
If that rocking horse won’t rock, Papa’s going to buy you a cuckoo clock.
If that cuckoo clock won’t tick, Papa’s going to buy you a walking stick.
If that walking stick falls down, you’ll still be the sweetest little baby in town!
