"Do You Hear The People Sing?" is running in my head. Did these woman-hating,

theocratic fascists WANT revolution? Is that their plan? An excuse to burn it all down to the End Times? WHAT, exactly, are they hoping we will do? Or do they think that we are so weak and helpless that we will just submit?

The mind boggles.

prevent it. They use fear to gin up their base because that’s what they are feeling and it’s all they have. Fear of losing their place in the world. Fear of the unknown. Fear of a world in which they have to decide what to do rather than follow a script they were handed at birth.

Sitting on the highest court of the land, nominated and hand picked by the Federalists Society and Heritage Foundation.

It's kinda of late in the game... we should have gone full boar after these Religious Terrorists think tanks a long time ago, but maybe the Democratic Party can see the need at long last.????

Just like we finally went after the NRA and somewhat the Koch "brothers" , but sort of tepid for too long.

I know activists have been trying.. but we need our elected representatives and Senators united in full force, not just Warren or Bernie, Whitehouse, and Sherrod Brown.

The degree these religious terrorists have managed to gain the level of strength into our daily lives vis a vis laws connected to education, women's health, and our judicial system and political world (enabled greatly by msm, has been stunning to put it mildly.

the frog in boiling water scenario fits. slowly simmering until it reaches the full boiling at which point it's too late to react.

full disclosure: I'm vey biased, straight up anti-religion. largely because of what I've been witnessing my entire life.
