    I love punching Nazi’s and I am far left. I have a big problem with people who don’t want to punch Nazi’s and would be happy to punch them too. Evil prevails when good men do nothing. Maybe stop being on the wrong side of history and just don’t get punched? Happy to come smack a traitor around any day though! Republikkklans and the right have betrayed their country. Do remind me what the penalty for treason is again.

    “Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.”

    --Teddy Roosevelt ®

    “The greatest danger to American freedom is a government that ignores Constitution.”

    - Thomas Jefferson

    “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

    -Theodore Roosevelt

    The measure of a society is found in how they treat their weakest and most helpless citizens.

    -Jimmy Carter

    “The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.”

    —FDR, 1937

    This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.

    -Theodore Roosevelt

    “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

    -The Federalist No. 47, at 324 (James Madison) (J. Cooke ed.1961)

    “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.”

    -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

    “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure,”

    -Thomas Jefferson

    That’s a 90% chance I get to see a better future and a 10% I’m still stuck in hell. Yes please deliver button. I do not want to remain here to see what is coming either way. I will take those odds happily. So very very tired of living in America. I hope we are heading for Star Trek still but we have to go through World War 3 to get there. Might be Dune though.

    Thank you! I take pride in being the first. I’ll forgive them for their ignorance it’s their lack of empathy and their deplorable actions I will hold them accountable for. I am also a child of boomers after the last election and I heard loud and clear their viewpoints, disowned them, told them to their face. They tried to call me to tell me my dad has a brain tumor and they wanted to see me and to come visit. I told them fuck off the world will be better without them and I mean it. If I was alive in Nazi Germany and my parents were Nazis it would be the same. I have health issues that I work hard to keep under control. My insurance has over tripled to almost $500 a month and now my meds are $1400 a month. We could have single payer healthcare. My wife worked for the homeless shelters in our area which lost their federal funding. Lost our house. Everything is just going to get worse from here. Food, more expensive, cars, more expensive, insurance, more expensive, housing, more expensive. We are in danger thanks to them. Went against everything they ever taught me in the end.
