Things Trump said today: “People thought that what I said was totally appropriate.” “Everybody to the ‘t’ thought it was totally appropriate.” If that doesn’t prove that he is insane and living in another world, I’m not sure what else would. :/ Oh, and Mitch is now on board with impeachment. Just another reason hate the meme culture (applies right and left)

Cancel Culture?? Where do you guys get this shit. How about the common sense culture. It is people like you, that are listening to a billionaire compulsive liar that has nothing in common with you that we need to beware of. The probability that the level of conspiracy that would be needed to change the election results is so low and yet you buy it outright. It is just crazy. So many good people bought into this and want to believe. It's like people were reprogramed in the matrix.

It as absolutely nothing to do with DJT or the election results, its been around for a long time, just a little more prevalent these days. "Cancel culture (or call-out culture) is a modern form of ostracism in which someone is thrust out of social or professional circles - either online on social media, in the real world, or both. Those who are subject to this ostracism are said to be "canceled." You've exemplified that....

Cancel culture is a BS term that was made up so people could position themselves as victims when their own behavior creates unwanted consequences. At least that’s how I usually see it getting used.

I am pointing out that if you use common sense, this whole election fraud thing and the the belief that president Trump is not an outright liar is totally off base. I just can't believe that smart people can not draw that conclusion. Maybe I give people too much credit.

I see that the guy wearing the Camp Auschwitz has been arrested.
Copied from a friend:
Huge numbers of our population believe in a complete alternate reality. Alternate facts as it were. But just as intensely as I believe they are deluded, they think I am the one who is deluded. Maybe I am. So how can I be confident in my perception? It can be quite difficult. But I have found that in times of confusion, particularly when emotions are running high and creating tunnel vision, the presence of Nazis can be an extremely helpful indicator. If I am attending a local demonstration or event and I see Nazis…neo-Nazis, miscellaneous-Nazis or the latest-whatever-uber-mythology-Nazis, I figure out which side they are on. And if they are on my side of the demonstration? I am on the wrong side. It is tough to argue moral equivalence when I am standing next to a Nazi. Look to my right. Is there a guy wearing a 6MWE (6 million wasn’t enough) t-shirt? I am on the wrong side. Look to my left. If that guy is wearing a Camp Auschwitz t-shirt? Wrong side. Speakers referring to things Hitler got right? Wrong side. Team-spirit face paint and hat with horns? This is an unclear indicator that could mean anything but safest to keep my distance from that guy even at a football game. But I can always, always, always, rely on the presence of Nazis as a guiding light through a fog of disinformation.
Some things are relative, but evil and good are absolute.

Are you saying there are 75m Nazi's in the US?

If that’s what you think then you missed the point.

Just because you might share a common viewpoint with a Nazi doesn't make you on the wrong side. I bet that Nazi's like food - so are we all bad because we like food? People have different reasons for wanting something or pushing for something. Not all is so binary.

This is the United States Capitol today. Our country's National Guard, sleeping there due to threats against the peaceful transition of power. For those of you in the back, still wearing Trump 2020 hats and flying the Trump flag, you brought this upon our country. And, in case anyone was wondering, by this weekend 400,000 Americans will have died of COVID.
