Radical rightists and much of the right media are regularly labeling their enemies as pedophiles, groomers, child traffickers, etc. The goal is to dehumanize their targets and to create the conditions where murdering said targets is morally necessary.

This is a fascist tactic.

@iamAtheistGirl It still is.

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@JDVance1 Sure, why not? They'll be just about as effective changing your ideology away from radical rightism as they are at protecting victims from mass murder by church, mall, and school shootings.

@ChinggisFroggJr @melJsaysso @Mister_Managr @misfitparade03 @DerekNoNumbers @MorgainePen1 @FloridaManInMO @_MateoCocinero If life begins at conception, then doesn't that make God the greatest abortionist of all? After all, God is responsible for miscarriages and stillbirths, as well as deformed fetuses that can't live more than a minute after birth....

@michaeljknowles Because it worked the first time, so why change it this time around?

Seriously, masks reduce transmission. They're a good idea.

@LeviTD @JunkScience Steve knows he's lying. He gets paid to lie and has made a very good living since the 1990s when he was originally hired to deny that second-hand cigarette smoke was harmful.

Steve is a liar for hire.

‘Hurriquake’ is a new one for us, too.

@Angry_Staffer The cell phone I'm posting from demonstrates we understand QM better than that and the existence of cutting lasers and heat seeking missiles (to name just two) show that we understand the optical properties of CO2 very well.

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@Angry_Staffer For CO2-driven climate change to be wrong, we'd have to grossly misunderstand quantum mechanics or the measured optical properties of CO2 would have to be wrong.

Neither is the case.

@LadyJayPersists @EODHappyCaptain There was a point in my youth when that assumption might have been reasonable, but the assumption that vets are men hasn't been even remotely reasonable for decades now.

@ggreenwald @FreedomofPress As opposed to affluent faded aging nearly forgotten one-time journalists, Glenn?

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@ggreenwald His description does say "accountability," Glenn....

@ProjectLincoln We should also keep most if not all of the current GOP candidates for President away from the presidency for the same reason.

I'd much rather Biden had stepped aside and groomed his replacement for 2024, but he didn't. So now I'll vote for him again to keep the US a democracy.

@GeorgiaBoyCore1 @RealBoomdiggity @ProjectLincoln The most Reagan-like president since Bush Sr was Obama.

@LakeCountyFL62 @ProjectLincoln I'd love an alternative, but until Trump is formally barred from federal office due to his crimes, I'll take nearly anyone the Democratic party can put up.

Saving the Republic from becoming like 1920s Italy is the most important thing.

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@MuadDib420 @ProjectLincoln Yes, and they all apply to Trump. Especially the multiple definitions of "fascist".

I suggest you study them more if you think otherwise.

@dusk12222 @JamesMerre64076 @Rob1515 @ProjectLincoln They're closer to authentic conservatives tha Trump supporters are. There is nothing conservative about denying the 2020 election, about tearing down the DoJ, about holding up military appointments, and so much more.

Radical rightists are not conservatives.

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@SundaeDivine You know, Trump's base not showing up would probably be good for the country in the short and long run.

[Brian Angliss @bangliss]

@RepBrianKing Apparently he's not better than this.
