      True. If you really want to win the moral victory you have to take action to stop letting your peers across the aisle get away with inciting this shit. (Speaking to leadership in congress here). You have to take action against propaganda outlets like Fox and OANN and Alex Jones and so forth.

      I’m extremely grumpy today… sorry for this rant.

      I guess what hit me yesterday is Biden’s statement about being friends with McConnell.

      I cannot comprehend considering that man as anything but a villain and a lifelong enemy. And it got me wondering what kind of person could consider him a friend? And how seriously does someone like that really take problems in this country? Kind of feels like the life and death problems we peons face aren’t life and death for those in power, ya know?

      There is no moral victory just people in power telling you to be subservient and accept their behavior or you can’t go to their imaginary billionaire land in the sky. I mean even the turn the other cheek is always misrepresented. Old slave laws prevented hitting someone a certain way or they could be released, you turned the other cheek to force them to hit you in an illegal manor and try to get released or force them into a position where they couldn’t hit you that time. It did not mean turn and let someone hit you ffs.
