The disgusting racists also made her skin darker. There is no bottom with these people.

“All gloves are off. People don’t seem to care.”

I guess I will always push back against this sort of claim. People do care, normal people care, the people who don't care - and even celebrate this shit - are Tubby's superfans, a shrinking portion of the population if his approval rating is any indication.

I get it, a monster like Trump harms many things, and one of the things he harms is our opinion of our fellow humans. We all carry around a notion of how good or awful humans are, on average, and it's hard for that not to take a hit when you see tens of millions of people enthusiastically joining in the performative cruelty.

But think of the people who don't get all the attention, the decent people who go through their day caring for others, because there are out there, by the billions.

The second part of this quote...

"Not only are they sharing deceptive content, they are making it increasingly more difficult for the public to trust anything they share with us.”

Girl, we're already at maximum distrust.

Regarding many aspects of technology use in general, current laws need to be expanded and/or modified and new laws created to account for all the new violations and crimes that can occur that weren’t possible in the same way before. Right now we float in a free-for-all crime playground. These legislative changes and additions have to happen and all reasonable people must insist on it. If we don’t, we lose the ability to discern truth, and the ability to report/stop/punish real crimes that harm people. Things only spiral down from there. Chaos will be freely allowed to reign. Legislation and consequences must be put in place and the sooner the better. The fact that our current administration is engaging in this type of deliberate disinformation is disgusting, infuriating, and embarrassing for them. They dirty and destroy everything they touch.

These people will always be the monsters they are, they will never change. I'm as outraged as you are, but I think we both know our outrage is delicious to them and they can never be shamed into being less monstrous. The only answer is to remove them from power through whatever legitimate democratic means we have.

Lately I've been thinking about how every day that goes by where he doesn't blow up the world is a victory. Just check them off, one by one. One less day of him, one less day of the monsters who surround him. This will end, we just need to carry one another through safely until it does end.

Zero evidence that any White House staff altered the photo. Hilarious to claim dishonesty with dishonesty.

The image was likely altered by someone on the feminized left to garner sympathy.

In Frank's world, there is no insult worse than "feminized" because to him women are the lowest form of life on earth.

Yeah, it should be quite insulting. At least I would be insulted to be tagged with that mind virus. https://www.compactmag.com/article/the-great-feminization/

But it has nothing to do with "women" in general. Only feminized people which can be of your gender too.

We can all see what you say and who you are. You're not fooling anyone.

You see nothing my dear feminized Substack acquaintance. You are captured by the woke mind virus have your head up your gaslit arse with the rest of the people in your groupthink bubble.

It is a sad cycle for you males that have been captured into the chick witch cult. Real males like myself feel sorry for you.
