Palestinians knew who they were when they elected them.

We have a lot of nightmare scenarios in the future: Trump wins, Trump loses and we get insurrection part II, Biden wins and we don’t take the house and keep the Senate, and we have at least 2 more years of gridlock while our lives continue to get shittier, etc etc.

The true tragedy is that there isn’t even a good outcome in the mix. Biden wins and Democrats take Congress. Fine, will they fix the courts? Fix student loans? Will they even try for universal healthcare? Universal Basic Income? Anything even close to meeting the moment?

So depressing.

Anyway, vote Biden so at least we don’t wind up in a fascist dictatorship.

If it was a Republican dressing like this, I think Democrats wouldn’t be so quick to defend or excuse it. They would see it as a sign of disrespect for the institution.

Of course, the difference there is that the Republicans have a history of disrespecting the institution… So that complicates the issue.

On the other hand, we’re not talking about loosening things up a little bit. This isn’t a guy who’s wearing an open collar without a tie, or wearing a t-shirt with a sportcoat. He’s dressing like he’s lounging in a dorm room.

It really does seem deliberately disrespectful.

Good!

Anti-nuclear is like anti-GMO and anti-vax: pure ignorance, and fear of that which they don’t understand.

Nuclear power is the ONLY form of clean energy that can be scaled up in time to save us from the worst of climate change.

We’ve had the cure for climate change all along, but fear that we’d do another Chernobyl has scared us away from it.
