A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.
So basically we have (A) a fascist party and (B) a party that doesn't want to make too much of a fuss about the fascist party.

Trump: COLUMBA IS AWFUL Columbia: [slaps student] Trump: COLUMBIA IS ANTISEMITIC Columbia: [kicks student in groin] Trump: NO MONEY FOR COLUMBIA LOL Columbia: [punches brown student in nose] Trump: WE WILL CLOSE COLUMBIA Columbia: [reaching for another student] okay this time it will work
Ok I know this is old-man irritability but I don’t care if Mahmoud Khalil has a pregnant wife, I don’t care if he and his wife are childfree, I don’t care if he’s in a fucking polycule with a hedgehog and a jar of mayonnaise, NOBODY should be detained for protected speech, including singletons.
I think the best way to produce a renaissance in American faith is to have Trump buy a Cybertruck and get stuck in it when it bursts into flame. How would you be able to deny God then? RE:

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.
