In #USA today
we can NO longer talk about choosing between #Democrat or #'Repubblican' (MAGAs)
The choice is between #Ethics, #Morals, #Decency #Rules of Laws
and
#racism, #cruelty, #chaos, #immorality #perversion of the #MAGAGOP
Choosing between "the #State" and "Who steals the most" takes everything"
Choosing between #Institutions that help and protect #Citizens
or 'every man for himself'.
Choosing between #Democracy #freedom #civilization... #Decency
or #Fascism.

Has Taylor Lorenz Lost All Sense Of Sanity And Decency?

I can’t believe Taylor Lorenz! I expected more from her. As a journalist and as fucking human being.

I guess was wrong to think that highly of her.

Just because you think something, doesn’t mean you say it out loud!

She really gives journalism a black eye.

I’d be shocked if she doesn’t lose subscribers to her newsletter on this.

And of course she only posts this on the cesspool that is XTwitter and nowhere else like Bluesky or Mastodon. Those she’s probably get more blow back.

Look, former-President Joe Biden’s approach to the Israeli-Palestinian war/genocide was questionable at best, despicable at worst. But as a journalist, Lorenz should realize that she should be more eloquent in how she expresses this opinion. Hell, kept it to herself.

And before anyone says that I’m saying that because she’s a woman, let me stop you right there. I think anyone and everyone needs to stop being so vile. Lorenz has complained about how she’s treated, I wonder why she’s treated the way she is?

I’m not condoning those people’s behaviors or hers, but my God, Biden just got terrible news and this is what she says? Good grief.

Look I’m putting my money where my mouth is, I’m unsubscribing from her newsletter and making sure I’m not contributing anymore.

People have been cancelled for less. I’m not saying she should be, but wishing someone ill when they get a horrible cancer diagnosis is shitty.

I’m hot under my collar about this also because, my Grandfather dies at 80 from prostate cancer. So her rhetoric stung!

What do you think?

Meanwhile, from the Fox Ministry of Truth ... a leak!

Bravo, Senator Booker! Thanks, #GQP #media for noticing.... now if only We the People had sane, non-#cult 'representatives' before the eyes of the world, our selves, our G/d(s) if we have one (or more) #Respect .... Booker is trying to draw our miniscule attention to: #democracy #law #decency

Meanwhile, in the U.S. #Senate...

Remember them? The ones who gave us this #ClownCar Cabinet of #TrumpVirus
