CEO of @ThisIsVisceral, a San Diego B Corp digital agency focused on helping organizations that are making the world better. Let me know how I can help.
There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power.
The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.
Every single major Democratic politician condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk.
Meanwhile, before EVEN KNOWING WHO THE SHOOTER WAS, the Republican president gave a speech calling for VIOLENCE against Democrats.
There are masked thugs running through the streets dragging people out of cars at gunpoint.
There was an attempted violent coup at the Capitol building brought on by the President himself.
Hell he threatened to INVADE an American city FOUR DAYS AGO.
I’m genuinely sad the man died. Not because I agreed with a word he said but because he was a misguided person who was himself caught up in the culture of violence.
He deserved to be shouted down for his backward ideas, not murdered.
The most sickening part of this whole ordeal is the excitement you see in Republicans, how quickly they moved past any respect for the dead, any reflection on the environment they helped foster, straight into who should be murdered next.
THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO THE SHOOTER IS, yet they are ignoring the obvious marks of a professional killer who clearly had a highly trained military background, and the fact that these guys tend to be right wing nut jobs with an obscure axe to grind.
But they’ve already given him (and we all know it’s a him not a her) an identity: the faceless embodiment of everything they hate and fear with a clearly coordinated messaging campaign to call him a “leftist.”
So it’s clear what they want and it’s not peace. They want a justification for more violence. They want a bloody shirt they can point to and say, “See? THIS is why there are thugs in the streets in masks pulling people from cars at gunpoint. THIS is why we must end the American experiment in democracy.”
And the most pathetic part of all is that none of it is necessary. Violent crime is down. Everywhere. This is all INVENTED. And it was done so to protect the pursuit of power of one man: a dim-witted child rapist who became a violent extremist simply because selling his dark vision of America was the only way his corrupt, soulless ass could stay out of jail.
@sharphealthcare Respectfully, I've done this before, and Sharp has proven time and time again that they do not care about people... So I'll spend my time finding a new doctor somewhere else instead.
I'll keep this account because I might need it for work purposes... but I'm otherwise done with this trash platform. You can find me on LinkedIn, Instagram, and maybe Threads.
Congratulations America... You're going to elect a convicted felon / rapist / insurrectionist / climate change denier / racist / etc, etc.
I am so disappointed to be an American right now.
This is not *like* a Nazi rally.
This is a neo-Nazi rally.
Your friends who are Black, Latino, Jewish, women, gay, transgender, union, Muslim, disabled, members of any vulnerable minority, are watching what you do today.
Are you speaking up about this?
@photomatt@wpengine As someone who runs a B-Corp certified agency that works primarily with nonprofits, and now has to do a LOT of manual updates, this move hurts people like us just as much as it hurts WPEngine. :(
As a #SmallBusiness owner, this kind of policy would be absolutely incredible for our team members and a huge financial relief for our business. I absolutely love this.
