  They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

  For everyone who spent #MeToo fretting “what if this goes too far?”—be of good cheer! It turns out we didn’t go too far at all! It turns out we didn’t nearly far enough! Good job guys!

  Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

  To people who don’t believe that Kermit the Frog is real: What is the basis for your morality? Where does your moral standard come from?

  DeTrumpification is as necessary a project to the US as DeNazification was to Germany. Everything removed from everywhere, including every person in the Trump party from every elected or appointed position of public trust, with all appropriate investigations, charges, and trials.

  RE: https://infosec.exchange/@chronovore/117270108936344001 "The claim beggars belief." OK. Who made such a claim?

  In distancing himself from his earlier support of trans people, James Talarico may have thought he'd keep himself from being cast as Them, but he participated in the exact story that casts him that way. https://www.the-reframe.com/us-and-them/

  What is it that makes you an enemy of this Republican project? They'll tell you, if you listen. It's human virtue of any kind. Humanity is what most threatens those who wish to end humanity. Humanity, then, is how we fight. We access the virtues they despise. https://www.the-reframe.com/the-crime-of-human-virtue/

  Dolly Parton's passing is effortlessly proving that if you spend your life being nice and kind and generous instead of mean and cruel and selfish, then apologists for mean cruel selfish bullies won't have to go around scolding people for cheering when you die, because there will be no cheering.

  When Trump dies and goes to hell, Hades is going to tell him he can walk out whenever he likes, but he has to do it without mentioning that he won in 2020.

  Saddened to hear my good friend the Finger Taker has passed away. I never agreed with him about amputating people's fingers in his dungeon, but I'll always remember the collegial good times, and most of all his great sense of humor. What laughs we had. Condolences to Ginny and his whole family.

  I spoke to my good friend Mitch McConnell for hours today, and I would describe his mental state as "unbelievably alive."

  I wrote about living in a country that is hard to celebrate, and of an alternate vision we are invited to join and inherit, in order to make a country that would be worth a sense of pride. https://www.the-reframe.com/patriots-of-a-land-yet-to-come/

  The Democratic Socialists want your children to be fed healthy nourishing food and receive the best possible medical care, and to do that they intend to raise taxes on a handful of corrupt and squalid pedophiliac monsters who have stolen 1000x more money than anyone can spend—well not in MY America.

  Submerged stories allowing fascist supremacy to stay popular even when its outcomes are disreputable, submerged stories that allow radical systemic change to stay disreputable even when that is what is both desired and needed, and how to tell the difference. https://www.the-reframe.com/the-submerged-story/

  What recent discourse is exposing is something I’ve been trying to say for years now, which is that there is little conservatives care more about than being considered the only normal ones by everyone else, and they’ll use bullying and the threat of punishment to get it.

  I wrote about the clarifying power of simple declarations of basic truths and decency; how they show us what we stand for, and how they expose what indecent liars stand for.

  It's best to understand that fascists see hypocrisy as a virtue. It's how they signal that the things they are doing to people were never meant to be equally applied. It's not an inconsistency. It's very consistent to the only true fascist value, which is domination.

  Today I wrote about our grotesque cultural flat-eartherism, an apparently regretful Dave Chappelle, an apparently apologetic Tucker Carlson, and the pressing need to use discernment if we would change a culture of abuse into a culture of healing. https://www.the-reframe.com/incredible-claims/

  I wrote a story of two doctors to illustrate what it really means to meet MAGA defectors where they are. We live in a sick nation, so we should pursue a culture of healing. And every movement toward health begins with a confrontation. https://www.the-reframe.com/a-confrontation-with-truth/

  Whenever somebody dares say "maybe the people with the power to fix broken things should at least try to fix that broken thing," invariably someone demands a full detailed plan of operation—not as a way of figuring out how to make that aspiration come to reality, but as a way of quickly shutting the aspiration down; it's like they're self-appointed middle managers for useless politicians.
