Stop calling them “conservatives” and call them what they are, “extremists”. They chose Trump over America. They’re a threat to our democracy, and they’re still in office.
Folks can’t have it both ways.
You can’t believe women should have the right to bodily autonomy — then put Republicans in office and be shocked or upset later when they’re taking away rights to bodily autonomy.

Or vote for people like Ron DeSantis and Sarah Huckabee Sanders only to be surprised when your kids aren’t able to get into or compete in top colleges around the country, due to lack of critical thinking skills. Or even a basic understanding of history and how we got here.

Conspiracy theories (targeted rumors) used to stoke fear, undermine trust, and sow division are nothing new. They’re used to demonize groups of people in order to achieve a goal — keep us down. We are seeing this today used against Black people, brown immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community & all marginalized groups.
📺 White people react to the first Black family moving into an all-white suburb in 1957 — Levittown, Pennsylvania. A new community of 60,000 people.
@MacLinx @Numbers28 All for the good. All he’ll do is name calling, whine/lie about indictments/election interference and that he won the 2020 election. Presidential candidates should be required to undergo psych evaluations.
From stories of grief, we’ve seen so many stories of hope and heroism of the aloha spirit.
Every emergency responder who put their lives on the line to save others.
Everyday heroes: neighbors helping neighbors.
Native Hawaiian leaders offering solace and strength.
That’s Maui.
