Thank you Heather for the breakdown of the 2 Voting Rights Acts. I have read both and thought I was missing something nefarious hidden in them that would make the GOP and twiddle dee and twiddle dumb act in the manner they have. No, they are straight forward.
I felt the shade that McConnell threw towards Biden the other day was rich considering the time spent in his career patting himself on the back protecting voting rights. Gaslighting at its best.
I guess it's just one more day in the Un-united States of America.
Am I the only one that is sick to death of this bullshit?
I would add to “sick to death of this bullshit” that people (including me) are genuinely traumatized. I can’t believe that the foundation of our country’s system of governance has completely been blown up. We are subjected daily to blatant lies and gaslighting. It is front and center every single day that “we the people” are at the very bottom of the list of priorities of people WE placed in a position of “power”, in their quest for even more power. It all makes me sick, makes me sad, makes me angry, and makes me feel helpless.
You are not alone. Traumatized and exhausted here. It's naked White Supremacy which has been a recurring theme I've fought my entire life. I hope this is the last gasp of White Supremacy. Invoking George Wallace and Bull Connor--both from my birth state--says it all.
Ari Melber making an excellent case tonight linking the Oath Keepers mission to promoting white supremacy based on their actions rather than their self professed mission of opposing government attacks on liberties. Seditious conspiracy charges against Rhodes feels like a BFD!
Traumatized, as are so many others. My wife is a therapist whose caseload since 11/2016 has been full to bursting, and the trauma of Cult45 is a real presenting factor. Then, fold in your own traumatization and you get a pretty burnt out therapist. In spite of real work to reduce her caseload last year, it increased by about 5%.
I know the RWNJ side calls us snowflakes for expressing that we are traumatized; the fact is, this is a national trauma.
Originally I intended the word “stuffed” in the sense of American sports slang, when a defensive player in basketball blocks a shot by an opponent. The other meaning, taxidermy, didn’t occur to me until after I posted. However, far be it from me to excuse or deny a Freudian slip (a double entendre) even if unintentional. But maybe my choice of word was a bit too cynical.
Thanks, Roland, you've taught me something. I'd always assumed the slang expression to be an English insult, but frankly, amidst the tide of filth in which we're all swimming, only the saintly can keep a clean mind. Mine was dirty before we started -- hence my snigger.
I regret some of my own harshness because condemnation of "the evil that men do" so easily turns to ad personam aspersions. I can be very hard on people whom we must combat because what they do endangers us all but if I hate those whose actions are hateful I lower myself to their level. Not an easy distinction, but all of us are befouled by evil deeds, most of all the doers themselves and their innocent victims.
With ultra-individualism we seem too often to be running up against the diametrical opposite of the Communists' lauding the action of "the masses" while negating the individual; but the outcome is curiously similar. Both dehumanize. I have a strong feeling that Marx himself would have been horrified by both...
In Australia, this is a euphemism for "f**ked". Is it the same in the US? (If so, it's a recent addition to the American dialect as it wasn't in use in 1986, which is when I was last there.)
Been seeing this locomotive barreling down on us for awhile, but then one man’s core of evil unleashed all the devils in hell on us. We have seen what such evil can do, so fight we must…
As I've written here recently, the two major foundations of the United States are colonialism and slavery. The Republican party of today is a total supporter of those two nasty foundations. Both major parties continue to support much of colonialism, but the Democratic party of today and many others who call themselves independent are against slavery. Mitch McConnell's speech in the Senate yesterday show which side he's on.
Chump is the Rorschach test for America. White “supremacists” haters found a kindred spirit with power; power hungry state’s rights fanatics finally saw a chance to win the civil war; Pharisee “Christians” found the perfect “TVevangelist” to spew their phony prayers to himself; Republican pols found the culmination of 40 years of planning for a “permanent republican majority; phony conservative intellectuals found their path to SC dominance which would lead to 50 years of “conservative” rule; NRA nuts saw a way to assure a gun in every crazy hand; abortion opposition saw the path to rule women’s lives thru phony “righteousness; militia “warriors” saw their vision of power within their grasp; those who worshipped the “rich, celebrity illusion of power” were giddy with their phony hero; and, immigrant/other haters saw that those inferior bastards could be ousted or held at bay.
There was/is considerable overlap between factions and there is now plenty of rank-and-file republicans who have no idea how evil the party has become or they think the downside is worth it. I wish I had the help of a friend who could interpret a Rorschach with considerable skill, but I don’t. I’ll just say that the number of factions bodes poorly for any unity. Also, the fact that so many factions have United behind such obvious evil, is a negative indeed, likely signaling widespread oppositional defiance. Despite all this, there are other factions signaling considerable movement and cohesion. They show energy, awareness, and as much, if not more, solidarity and focus in order to meet any negative threats.
Not a crazy view. George Lakoff describes this exact scenario of “unifying” for the common cause of the Republican base in his book Don’t Think of an Elephant!: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate (Updated in 2018, I recommend reading the 2004 edition first.)
Democrats need to find the unifying common cause based on overlapping agreement of each segment of their base:
- Socioeconomic
- Identity politics
- Environmentalists
- Civil liberties
- Spiritual
- Antiauthoritarians
He also describes how to include those not identifying as R or D.
Lakoff’s explanation of looking at politics from the view of Rs acting in the strict father role vs Ds acting in the nurturing parent role really clarifies how someone would whole-heartedly vote against their own best interests AND how to get the messaging right. Definitely thought-provoking reading.
that's it right there Camilla, they think somehow they are protected and it's only the cool-aide drinking liberals nut jobs that will be affected. Same with covid, "well my friend had it and it was no big deal" so screw the rest of us. I just finished reading "The Next Civil War" by Stephen Marche, it's worth the time.
Well, they are being threatened, seriously threatened. I do not think even that is an excuse when you've sworn to uphold the Constitution, when the country you've sworn to protect is being attacked. We've had people who were never elected and easily could have gotten away with not coming forward, step up and do the right thing KNOWING that their lives and their family's lives would be in danger from that moment on. That our elected officials, the minority that is not actually in the tank, are not willing to do the same when our very democracy is on the line, is a national shame and a personal shame for each of them.
I do believe that ultimately they know what is at stake and that they do NOT truly want this world they are creating. But those that I'm talking about, those with a conscience, are likely justifying their lack of action with the threats against them and their families. But doing that requires some deep denial about the catastrophic effect of their inaction. These people's souls are not at peace. NOT implying that we should care about that. No, these men and women are betraying a sacred trust. I do not have sympathy for them. These are just things that I think about when I think about your question, which I do every bloody day many times.
I’m not sure they have given any thought to the world they are creating beyond being more than happy with keeping the “others” down. They are drunk and crazed with the power they currently feel, and crave more and more every day.
No you are not alone. I am really tired of the people's will being thwarted by a minority of legislators. The majority of Americans want these voting bills to pass which as was stated are just common sense pieces. A majority also want Build Back Better but it comes down to two recalcitrant Senators killing the legislation .This is just unacceptable and frustrating as hell .I for one, wonder if my votes in future elections will even be counted.
Two “recalcitrant” senators and one entire political party who seem to represent something close to a majority. And don’t know or care that we are moving backwards in critical areas of our Democracy. As in Voting.
Charlie, and everyone, I guess this year we will find out the incredible power of human endurance. United, with a compelling purpose and shared resources, we can prevail. The US Army taught me that. Beat down and locked down by a pandemic, looking at a very bad climate now and getting worse, and seeing our best efforts just covered over by "bullshit" with more coming our way...
No wonder we are disheartened and exhausted. We are exactly where they want us to be. "They" being those who have chosen to "use the filibuster as the murder weapon of Democracy" (Schmidt, I think) and their lied-to believers and donors.
As it gets very, very real, we must find each other. We will discover and acquire the human endurance I am speaking about. It only works if we carry each other -- with honesty, in true faith in ourselves and who we worship, and trusting each other in a world where trust in anything is fading fast. Like we are beginning to do here, on LFAA. With the best damn Professor I know of. And the best commentators and replies I have ever read.
I may not be here every day, or read the whole thing. I don't have any idea of how things will turn out -- for me, for you, for our our country or the planet. I have never met a single one of you. And I have less to offer as time goes by. BUT I CHOOSE TO MAKE MY STAND HERE. You ain't heavy, and I've lost weight...we can do this.
I look to your posts, Gus-that-I-do-not-know, and they steady me. I am a daily reader and infrequent poster. So you know me even less than many in this glorious community! I thank you for talking to us here. Here, where I come to know that I am not crazy, and that my “right from wrong” dial still works.
Thank you, Donna! I think there are many subscribers who are readers only, and many more who post only once in a while, but we are all in this mess together. Glad to meet you!
Gus, Learned the same thing in the US Army. Yes this is where we take our stand. For me it's going to be about healthcare and I'll post a link to my action strategy next week. I'm tired of 'conversations about possibilities' and only want to engage in 'conversations for action'. I suspect I will lose a few erstwhile friends in the process, oh well...
dear Linda Bailey, I am 81 years old, and never missed an election or opportunity to vote Democratic. Am i "sick to death" of this bullshit? You bet your bippy I am!!! The current group of republicans in office today who support the Big Lie should be charged with sedition and removed from office. McConnell says Mr. Biden's speech was "unpresidential," does he really think that trump was acting "presidential" with all his embarrassing shenanigans? I'm also sick to death of the way the media (all of it!) focus on the most egregious remarks and ignore the obvious facts! I'm very worried about November! I cannot ever reach anyone in the DNC, and there are so many humans now that our politicians receive tens of thousands of e-mails a day that can't possibly be read! But if us democrats don't get busy and drum up GOOD candidates for congress really soon, our country is doomed. No other way to put it.
I'm 76 and right with you! Another example....the media covered Jan 6 violence, as it should have, but nobody covered the candlelight vigil on the mall this Jan 6 afternoon. I tried tweeting all the media I could find but no one responded. How do we get the message across to them of what they need to cover??
I wasn’t even aware of that! Why on earth wasn’t that covered? Although, I am 76 also which might explain our reaction to it. It’s not too late for the media to reflect upon that. Better late than never!
Catherine, the entire chamber had to have been stifling hysterical laughter when McConnell came up with that “ferocious” attack on his old friend. I wondered if, as an incentive, TFG promised to give him a plug in his next pronouncement. So easy now to consider US politicians as well as SCOTUS as morally bereft. One thing we do not have, thankfully, at long last, is a morally bereft president. So I choose to support him every day.
Linda Bailey, you absolutely are NOT the only one sick to death of this bullshit and my guess is there are multitudes standing with me. How can McConnell look at himself in the mirror?
We are engaged in a contest that is being played by two different sets of rules. Democrats by and large adhere to the rule of law, historical tradition and common decency. Republicans play to win at all costs, and think our rules are quaint, to be ignored. And there's no referee. McConnell looks in the mirror, and grins. Because he's winning.
It’s because our “rule of law” is all but non existent to those already in power. They are abusing their position and ignoring their oath to “we the people”. The SCOTUS has given them the green light and they are barreling through it at record speed… we don’t even pull them over for traffic violations! Imagine if you or I ignored a subpoena. What is more upsetting than them getting away with murder is the fact that a large percentage of “we the people” think they are “A OK”!!!
No to your question. This is about the pledge(s) made by Republicans to oppose <issue to be supplied> to important legislation that improves the union IMO. I was furious with Romney's comments last night and gagged over McConnell's.
I’ll state the obvious, you are not the only one that is sick to death of this “you know what”. I have only used that word once in my recent memory and that was at a car dealership but it certainly applies here.
Thank you Heather for the breakdown of the 2 Voting Rights Acts. I have read both and thought I was missing something nefarious hidden in them that would make the GOP and twiddle dee and twiddle dumb act in the manner they have. No, they are straight forward.
I felt the shade that McConnell threw towards Biden the other day was rich considering the time spent in his career patting himself on the back protecting voting rights. Gaslighting at its best.

Be safe. Be well.
I would add to “sick to death of this bullshit” that people (including me) are genuinely traumatized. I can’t believe that the foundation of our country’s system of governance has completely been blown up. We are subjected daily to blatant lies and gaslighting.

Who cares what the wackos say. The wackos are cornered animals and on the wrong side of history. This will probably be the year that they get stuffed.
I'm not in favor of big game hunting or taxidermy but... your image raised a bitter smile...
Originally I intended the word “stuffed” in the sense of American sports slang, when a defensive player in basketball blocks a shot by an opponent. The other meaning, taxidermy, didn’t occur to me until after I posted. However, far be it from me to excuse or deny a Freudian slip (a double entendre) even if unintentional.

Been seeing this locomotive barreling down on us for awhile, but then one man’s core of evil unleashed all the devils in hell on us. We have seen what such evil can do, so fight we must…
Read "You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train" by Howard Zinn.
Yes! And Zinn’s “Peoples History of the United States.” Brilliant, but now “History.” RIP Howard.

Traumatized, exhausted and saddened to my core.
"We are subjected daily to blatant lies and gaslighting" ... ain't this the truth. And we are unable to escape the abuse.
How did ALL the R's get the same assignment? Can they really want this world they are creating?
Nancy, their first assumption is that none of this will ever apply to them and theirs.
that's it right there Camilla, they think somehow they are protected and it's only the cool-aide drinking liberals nut jobs that will be affected. Same with covid, "well my friend had it and it was no big deal" so screw the rest of us. I just finished reading "The Next Civil War" by Stephen Marche, it's worth the time.

Great question.
Very well said.
Daria, and everyone, look for my reply to Charlie in Tuscan.
THIS, Cathy. Thank you.
Yes, the children of other parents finally got to calling us the liars they are in reality. Gaslighting is turned up.

Nope. You're not the only one.
count me in on this

We are absolutely all in this mess together. So glad to be in conversation here.
Gus every time you post you offer up a delish plate of wisdom.

Promises, promises....
Putting it all out there, Charlie, is how you find out who your true friends really are. The hangers-on fall away.
Roland, what if you don’t have any hangers-on? I don’t think I ever had any.....where can I get some?
Gus, you give me so much optimism. Thank you for expressing this. I do believe we can make a difference. ❤️

No. You’re not.
No to your question. This is about the pledge(s) made by Republicans to oppose <issue to be supplied> to important legislation that improves the union IMO. I was furious with Romney's comments last night and gagged over McConnell's.
Fred, Romney made my blood boil over his comments yesterday.
Me too. I'm sick of it, all of it, all the repubs.
No, Linda, you're.in good company.
No - you are not alone
Makes you hate Kentucky and praise my ancestors who moved to Montana.
Except I have friends who moved from TN to MT and became MAGAts.
To be sure, Mt. has many Magats but not the bigot, McConnell.
I’ll state the obvious, you are not the only one that is sick to death of this “you know what”. I have only used that word once in my recent memory and that was at a car dealership but it certainly applies here.
Brilliantly stated—thank you.
No! Blessings,
