John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It’s so much easier to respect Christians whose actions align with the teachings of Christ. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Totally agree. If we hang our hats on only affordability issues, we will not come close to addressing the structural disaster that continues to unfold. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 29/08/2026How is it that I am now agreeing with Doug Ford? Strange world. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 17/08/2026While I agree with the findings, it’s also emblematic of the fact that we are sorely lacking in ideas on how to address this issue. Unless a plurality of the voting public can agree on a set of ethical standards by which are leaders are held, we will continue down this dark path. 140
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 15/08/2026In the old days these standards were called norms and there were consequences for breaking them. The only way to re-establish standards is at the voting booth. Please vote every one of these clowns out of office! 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 10/08/2026We are so far from paying for the damage this one wrought 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Chris’s criticism was probably too nuanced for those who need to here it. This guy, Senator Bernardo Francisco Moreno Mejía, is a first class hypocrite. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Start with a perverse reading of the 2nd amendment, throw in a double dose of fascism and you get the current iteration of the Supreme Court. It’s long past time for the next iteration. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 29/07/2026How Kyle can report this nonsense grift without laughing, vomiting or a bit of both is beyond me. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 24/07/2026If you take whatever the Orange One says and invert the message, you almost always get the truth. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 24/07/2026This is totally on brand and why I stopped considering any republican candidate viable since the early 1990s. To anyone paying attention it has been clear that their affinity for destroying and degrading our most important assets has been a longstanding feature of the party. 030
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Yes, this bit was created and performed by a group of gay men mocking toxic masculinity. Sounds right to me. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Fox was the pioneer of ignorant cynicism, but many have followed in their footsteps. Now it’s a whole media ecosystem of ignorance and cynicism. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 02/07/2026This is the inevitable consequence of a perverse reading of the 2nd Amendment. From that basis, the radical right has steadily chipped away at all efforts to sensibly regulate guns. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Thank you. I just don’t get the gladiator vibe that so many people find irresistible. 030
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 17/06/2026As Bonhoeffer said, stupidity is primarily a moral failure. We would be a lot better off if more people understood what this really means. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 10/06/2026To claim election fraud without credible evidence is to poison the well of democracy. These people should be in prison for sedition. 050
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 09/06/2026This a disease that kills democracies. Let’s treat it that way. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Move the “I” one space to the right, add a “t” at the end and you’ve got it. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Can’t have it both ways Johnny. You can’t make nakedly partisan rulings and still expect to be considered credible and objective. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 18/04/2026One less option for the coming exile. It will be better for him to go to one of those “sh#thole” countries he seems so fond of anyway. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Once you have made a deal with the Devil it’s hard to back out. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 17/04/2026Although the meal on the right looks a bit like a heart attack on a plate, I would take over shoe leather, dog vomit and carrots. 010

John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 15/04/2026It’s depressing and sad that anyone inside the US thinks he is sane. 030

John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 26/03/2026While I don’t agree that Gov Newsom has a disability at all, I’ll take an intellectual disability any day over a moral disability. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 24/03/2026One of the superpowers of being dyslexic is the ability to see through BS immediately. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Does anyone see the similarities in the eyes to Elizabeth Holmes? Similarly sociopathic? 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 17/03/2026While this is likely true, it’s his moral disability that’s causing most of our problems. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 15/03/2026I don’t know about you, but I have been totally digging Green Day since their performance at the Super Bowl. American Idiot and much of their other work has aged extraordinarily well. 050
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 14/03/2026This isn’t just an issue with “style” of the content, the substance is deeply corrupt and as Senator Ossoff suggests, evil. 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 13/03/2026Colorado says good riddance to this PoS and his shitty company 000
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 13/03/2026This PoS ended up on my Facebook feed. I wonder how many tax dollars are being used to push this nonsense. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 12/03/2026I feel for those who are burdened with executing this madness as most of recognize the incoherence when they see it. 020

John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 10/03/2026It might make sense to drastically reduce our reliance on Dino Juice. Call me crazy. 010
John V @flatlander2.bsky.social · 10/03/2026Yes, it’s just a video game to these malevolent clowns. 020
