@wdlindsy

sheesh & i thought my mother was bad but THIS is truly over-the-top psychopathy-- the child's brain has been destroyed -- by his MOTHER who happily boasts she would do it AGAIN!

this is the problem with giving people a consequences-free way of harming their child like denying vaccines-- evil people exist

this woman knows there are no consequences to herself for doing this to her child >heck, she's cashing in on being special & somehow chosen by God!

GOPs don't care about history, as Dumbya Bush said, when we're history, we'll be dead...

@adron @augieray

i don't see the difficulty, i propose that he either pay the tax assessed or go to federal prison until he does feel moved to pay it

you do know that regular people have their money taken right out of their bank accounts if they owe taxes? and if they try to evade taxes, they are jailed?

why is Elon deserving of more rights than us?

@augieray

and he wouldn't even notice the money, whereas all of us in the bottom 50% of earners would very much benefit from keeping more of our small incomes to spend in our own communities instead of going to corrupt GOPs diverting everything we earn into private pockets like SpaceX

@VeroniqueB99

imagine if women & girls were considered actual human beings worthy of protection from criminal predators in the United States... i wonder if i will ever live to see that day...

@Fabje

i just washed my hair & can't do a thing with it!!!

@energisch_ @petergleick

some of them are more polite about it but they all hold the same beliefs

if it makes you feel better, by all means try to use sweet reason, but those who have been using sweet reason for the last century can tell from experience that it simply doesn't work on these people (for that matter, arguing from reason & logic works only on a minority of people even among decent people, most people act based on emotion -- emotion is the driver of human psychology)

@energisch_ @petergleick

you can't seriously imagine that the party of white supremacy is open to reason

i've lived here all my life, they do not respond to reason or even self interest, their hate is everything to them

@petergleick

sure it would but there is no decent GOP, much less a handful of GOPs, they've worked tirelessly for fascism since Ronald Reagan, over 40 years, they are not going to quit now with the goal in reach

it's #SilentSunday, caption of this photobomb is left as an exercise to the viewer!

@Bredroll @randahl

this

historically women, people of color, LGBT people had no rights & this is the "tradition" that "conservatives" want to bring back -- that is a lot of people, indeed, the majority of the people that they feel are not entitled to rights or protection

@cstross @schrotthaufen

no i get it, i absolutely agree... i was responding to the person who appeared to believe the material should not be shared at all (the reference to snuff & legality bothered me)

i have people i trust who are willing to view & describe the material since i am too anxious to view it myself

@schrotthaufen @cstross

i don't watch these videos either & i agree that they should have CW... but it becomes OK to share this content when the US media & gov't is telling lies about the victim's actions

for US historical context, (which no one in this thread appears to recall?) Emmett Till's mother would not allow a closed casket because she wanted the world to see the horror so it could not be forgotten-- it was the only way she could get any justice for the crime against her child
