44. The time for being nice is long over.

The colorful language is perfectly apt. It doesn't diminish his message at all.

The time for "being above the fray" is over. It hasn't worked so far. The reactionaries get away with their bullshit all the time, in fact, they gained majority of all branches of government, even while incompetent, by being fucking assholes.

The Left needs to give them a taste of their own medicine, and make it clear, and in no uncertain terms. Yell it from the roof tops, if they have to, but fucking express their opposition as much as they can.

This country is in crisis mode, and we need to start acting like it, not trying to mince words and hope nobody's feelings get hurt. Those days are over.
