I'm ready to leave this shitshow for more productive, pleasant, spaces. But we're all still waiting for @MarkHamill at #BlueSkySocial
Come see the brighter side dear friend to us all 💙💙💙
So, you want me to believe that you voted for a racist, rapist, convicted felon, business fraud who incited a deadly attack on our Capitol after losing the last election because of the price of eggs?
That you voted for the orange-dipped dude who ran with a different VP because the last one was nearly hanged for not breaking democracy, because you’ve been getting fewer hours at your job these days?
You want me to believe that you voted for someone who nearly every economist in the world has said will grow our debt (which he did by the third largest amount ever the last time), increase our costs, raise inflation and destroy our GDP because a burger and fries at Five Guys is more expensive than it used to be?
You want me to believe that you voted for the drink bleach guy who golfed while thousands of Americans were dying a day because you had it so much better then, when you were stockpiling toilet paper, than you do now?
You want me to believe that you voted for the guy who had 4 years to pass an infrastructure bill and didn’t, the guy who promised Mexico would pay for the wall when they didn’t, the guy who promised to bring manufacturing back, lower the cost of prescription drugs and end the opioid crisis but didn’t, because you preferred his “policies”?
You want me to believe you voted for the “grab em by the pussy” guy who wants to destroy the Department of Education and to repeal the ACA despite the fact that he has nothing more than “concepts of a plan” to replace it, the guy who will roll back environmental protections, strip women and minorities of more rights, the guy who will hand Ukraine to Putin and Gaza to Netanyahu, the guy who has said he will be a “dictator on day one”, because you’re worried about losing your gas stove?
I’m sorry, but I don’t believe any of that, and frankly, I’m not sure you believe it either.
Because the truth is that your vote wasn’t about any of that.
You voted for the traitorous embodiment of the 7 deadly sins because when it came to casting your ballot for a Black woman, you just couldn’t do it.
And because you like getting away with being your worst self.
And because life is a whole lot easier to stomach when all that has gone wrong for you, is someone else’s fault.
Let’s be honest here, that is what it was.
So when the price of eggs is $18, and your Latino neighbors have been deported or moved to some f’d up “camp” to pick the strawberries none of you will pick, and your miscarrying wife has to contend with sepsis before she’s allowed to have an abortion, and your autistic child is unable to get the early intervention they desperately need, please remember what it really was that you voted for.
Because I promise you the rest of us will never, ever forget.
@mmpadellan Angry, depressed, frustrated human here...Still following you 💙
I vaguely remember that you followed me to, but not now. Doesn't bother me either way though, dipshit elmo doesn't show my tweets to anyone anyway 😅
@RossKneeDeep I am a white male disgusted and fearful for what the others who look like me have brought forth on this teetering nation.
Thank you for your honest words always. We will keep fighting, and some day, decency and compassion will win 💪💪💪
@MarkHamill I missed it! 😱😭
Happy belated birthday to one of my biggest heroes, from childhood till now, nothing has changed except who the emperor is 💪💙
I speak Trumpian so let me translate this:
"Stephen Colbert emotionally triggered me tonight as he said something critical of me that I actually recognize as most likely true and I am afraid that other people will see it as most likely true also. This scares me, and makes me kind of sad (but I don't like to go there) and I am also very afraid of Stephen's (and CBS's) overall reach and influence on the general public."
🙏
@marlene4719 I love that this is the first tweet of yours I've seen 🤣💙💙💙
Unless of course elmo unfollowed you, and I used to see your tweets. I can never remember anymore what nonsense he's done 🤣
