  • During the Iraq War, Kurt Vonnegut was asked about the anti-war protests… His response was that, during Vietnam, he was part of anti-war protests firing on all cylinders and laser-focused and going to stop that war. He said it was ultimately about as effective as climbing to the top of a ladder and tossing a pie on the ground. This time will be no different.

    So I don’t know what you’re hoping to gain. The ‘Ima take my ball and go home’ approach didn’t work out so well in 2016. Threatening not to vote isn’t going to phase anyone in a country where more than half the population doesn’t vote anyway. Maybe instead of threats you should work with other people trying to help the people you want elected get elected.





  • Like I had to include that many different outlets in order to provide a full picture. FYI, APNews reported about this in late August. The fact that the NYT is telling you about it this week means that something very wrong occurred for two months while they didn’t.

    The rightwing having a 1000-page guide to their overthrow of the country is what I would call the most important event of this year on US soil.

    Do you want to only be told about the climate change rejection and not the other plans? That’s what’s fucked up.
