People like him went to magic shows and walked away utterly convinced that the rings must’ve really separated, or an actual rabbit just appeared out of nowhere in the hat.

Thing is, the anxiety preceded MAGA. The supposed anxiety was one of the big drivers of MAGA. There’s long been problems in the current system. MAGA is just an easy scapegoat.

Not trans here, but I don’t get how trans people can be like this. They’ve likely faced hatred and bigotry themselves, why say those things knowing full well not everyone experiences the same things they do, nor does everyone have the same resources they do?

Not just because he’s a white supremacist, but the fact that he was (is?) actually trying to implement his twisted vision on the rest of us (DOGE)

Yes! Both me and my late husband loved Tesla. But seeing Elon for who he is destroyed any sheen or novelty.

When did they do that? Video?

Yeah, 58 is far too many

Important to remember that hate and bigotry aren’t isolated to one political party.

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 2h

lol, doesn’t excuse the “opposition”. The Republican are in a cult; that’s been established. That many Dems voting along with them, knowing what Trump is capable of, no excuse. Then again, this is the same party that for whatever fucking reason actually nominated an actual Nazi fanboy.

When did he bring up either of them here? Very weird reply for this particular post

000

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

And what objective analysis is this based on?

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

Hi Hakeem's friends! There's a very big difference here, like apples to kumquats. Would you like me to point it out to you?

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

Remind me how 2024 panned out?

010

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

It was the official Democrat party that not too long ago actually nominated a Nazi fanboy. So spare me.

000

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

And what exactly are you basing this on? What political analysis?

000

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

Really? So you think that's it? No other reason whatsoever, just white supremacy?

100

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

Yes, 2024 should have been a layup for Democrats. How is it that Trump actually attempted to overturn an election and subvert the Constitution and Democrats *still* lost?

110

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

They failed it in 2024. Kamala rightly railed against Trump, sad truth is that people didn't care so much about the actual attempted subversion of the rule of law as they did about things that directly affected them. Trump gave them the lip service they wanted, should've been a cinch for Kamala

000

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 11h

It's true though. And it's no small percentage either. They went along with it. Trump had showed what he was capable of, and almost a quarter of the supposed opposition supported him anyway

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

"voting blue means pretending that members of our own party weren't complicit"-actual people on here

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

Framing it as strictly Republican support wouldn't be the full picture though. There was no good reason to support that bill, let alone from 58 Democrats. And what did it even get them?

110

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

The blame also needs to go on those Democrats. They were supposed to be the ones opposing the madness, the ones with any kind of sense.

110

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

Wow, one democrat. And where is this bill now?

010

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

Dude literally voted along with this white supremacist fever dream.

110

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

That doesn't excuse those 58 Democrats from voting along with this white supremacist lunacy

110

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

Empty headed thinking is voting along with the fascists pretending that there's some grander plan in which they'll cooperate with us in the future. "oh, surely if we vote along with the face eating leopards, the face eating leopards won't eat our faces".

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12h

Democratic leadership really seems to think that if we just keep playing nice, that ICE will stop its white nationalist fever dream of trying to deport every person of color in the United States

Where do you see Democrats calling for its abolition? Cite the specific statement and source

Right? I want to see this supposed call for abolition too

Ah, I misunderstood the "OP" as stated above, apologies

010

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

Important to remember that this is just part of the already small 30% who still actually support him. There's quite a few out people there who really don't care for or hate Trump. I think he just gave the average voter the lip service they weren't getting from Kamala back in 2024.

010

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

Not entire, and we have that to our advantage. There are quite a few people who either don't care for or really dislike trump. Trump just happened to give them the lip service they were wanting in 2024.

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

As I recall, she didn't say "whole country", she said a symptom of it-which is true. One doesn't attain Trump's status just from "a few bad people". There's long been a racist, violent streak. You can love your country and criticize its deep flaws. These things are not contradictory.

120

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

There's quite a few people out there who are actually like this. In all his awfulness. He emulates them. Even in this supposedly great country, there are a lot of just very nasty people here. And they have their representative in the White House.

010

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

What are you talking about? He didn't say that.

I'm very happy with my old bottom freezer GE, thank you very much

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

The Democrats have a good headwind right now with Trump repeatedly shooting himself in the foot. They absolutely should not squander that by utilizing Trump's tactics. Just bad all around.

Yep. Nothing I want more than a Dem promising to make life tougher for immigrants WE don't like. Certainly that will help all the immigrants we do like

I remember living in St Louis around the time of Ferguson and seeing the less overt racism even among the supposedly more progressive people.

Good to know that one of the top advisors to the president has nothing better to do with his time than to rant on about bizarre conspiracy theories. Tanking approval numbers, spiking gas prices and a vastly unpopular war he's digging into. But Man Gets Sick is a countering narrative.

Shout out to Mike Dunford AKA Questionable Authority and every other attorney here for contributing their valuable time and expertise to helping people better understand the law

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

This is another one of those times that shows how your contribution of your time and expertise is so valuable. It seems trivial, but it's true. It's this minutiae going on behind the headlines, the legal proceedings that people need to understand but so few actually do or think they do. Thank you.

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

Seems like many in that sphere are grasping at straws. There's a story going around on Twitter, some supposedly bombshell story that James Talarico couldn't possibly have gone to his doctor and an urgent care consecutively over the same medical issue. Yes, that's an actual story over there now.

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

There seem to be quite a few people who are convinced that only those who are deep within the cult must not care about the truth anymore. A lot of those people who don't are ordinary people who just don't have faith in the same institutions that everyone else here does

000

David Frank @comgeek39.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

One of the things about authoritarianism is how they can just flood the zone and get people to just not care about the truth anymore.
