There’s a new girl in my kindergarten class who’s autistic and it’s like she’s barely / not really verbal but like idk she opened up to me a little, I don’t tell people I’m on the spectrum at work because they already treat me horribly because I’m the only poc there but like she’s a little Latina girl who I know exactly how she feels and like I was like “hey Nina, If you don’t wanna talk it’s okay, just thumbs up or thumbs down if you understand the (math) problem? Okay?” So we sorta made like a thumbs up and thumbs down thing between us and today it was the most surreal thing because I like “I know they tell you to make eye contact but I’m gonna tell you a trick, look at their neck, chin, hair, and whatever is behind them, I don’t like eye contact very much either? Thumbs up?” And she said with the smallest voice “Thankyou, for not saying I’m dumb” I wanna be the person I needed when I was her age You’re with America, or you’re with the MAGA movement. So if you aren’t an extremist, what do you do? If you want the endless slaughter to end, what do you do? But when you vote for ANY Republican, you’re voting for those policies, because Republicans do as they are told by their fascist supreme leader, Donald Tru&p.

You can try to tell yourself that you don’t vote for their policies, that your candidate isn’t extreme. And they are ALL in thrall to Tr*mp and Marjoriefuckyfuckfuck. That party has been replaced with violent, christian nationalist, white supremacist, fascists. Maybe it’s real hard to consider voting against the party you’ve always supported. (Like, at the very LEAST there were Republicans who wouldn’t support a coup, or flood our streets with weapons of mass murder, for instance). Maybe, thirty, forty, fifty years ago, there was some redemptive quality in the GOP. There is no middle.Īnd to be clear: if you are with the domestic terrorists, you’re not welcome on my page or in my life. You are with us, or you are with the domestic terrorists.

The other side wants all of us to have healthcare and a home. One side wants as much death and terror on the streets as possible.

You’re with the fascists and terrorists, or you are with the rest of us. And when it’s a white man who murders a BIPOC child, his state’s Republican governor will pardon any consequences that somehow slip past the barriers to justice they’ve built. Thanks to the Republican fascists who have gerrymandered and suppressed their way into minority rule In 21st century America, any of those things will now likely get you killed by a paranoid gun nut who won’t suffer any consequences. Remember how much fun it was to harmlessly TP your friends’ houses? How silly and goofy it was to ding-dong ditch someone? Just to do silly, childish, ultimately harmless expressions of being a kid who’s fooling around? Or how about playing hide and seek? Remember how fun that was?
