When your 4 year old accidentally tells THE ENTIRE FUCKING WORLD that YOU STOLE THE ELECTION FOR DONALD TRUMP
Keep in mind this was FOUR HOURS before ANY NEWS OUTLET HAD CALLED THE RACE.
So much for “They’ll never know!” @elonmusk. And just so *you* know: WE ALWAYS FUCKING KNEW
TWEEPS: In the days since the election, my account has lost 23,000 followers -- mostly bots, I assume. But I wanted to make sure Elmo isn't unfollowing us from each other once again.
Do me a favor: RT this and check to make sure we're still following each other, as we'll get through this together.
Please and thank you! 🙏💪
A distraught friend yesterday boiled it down perfectly:
"If we won, we'd be celebrating how many of them would get healthcare, education, or student loans canceled. But they won, and they're celebrating how many of us they get to kill."
Tells the whole story, doesn't it?
It's not just that Trump won. It's that Joe Rogan, Dana White and Brett Favre won. Jailed insurrectionists won. The Alitos and the Thomases won. Vladimir Putin won. Racism won. Misogyny won. Sexism won. Global warming won. Xenophobia won. Most of all: Fear Won. That's what hurts.
I don’t even have the words for not having any words. We stick together. Breathe. Keep the patient comfortable. Feel like shit. Take care of the poor, each other and ourselves. Look around for all the light that remains and can never go out. Sending you all a big quavering hug.
“I would humbly suggest—if we do indeed survive this current threat to self-governance—that President Harris takes Washington’s guidance and expands the study of civics, both in our school and in our communities” and strengthens education more broadly. https://t.co/upKZk8VDud
Van Jones: “Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are not taking the same exam. And I think it bothers people. They’re not taking the same exam. He gets to be lawless. She has to be flawless. That’s what’s unfair.”
Never forget that we had all the scientific evidence we needed to act on global warming over 50 years ago, but the fossil fuel industry spent millions to spread disinformation and block climate action.
Global warming isn’t a tragedy, it’s a crime.
The Trump candidacy is not so much a political campaign as what intelligence services call an influence operation, a coordinated effort to use mis-and-disinformation to undermine democratic institutions and processes.
