Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025They figure out who they hate and want to bust. They then reverse engineer one of the insults and screaming memees they have been developing and marketing to the base to apply to the hate de jure and then… pedal to the metal! 🍊💩🤡 000

Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025The fact that this crew is totally on board tells us that this is what they have always wanted. They’ve been on Grover Norquist’s speed dial and mailing list from the word go. They were fascistic then and now. And it’s our fault no one would listen? 000
Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Okokok…from now on I will no longer use “we” for anything. It will be “not enough of us.” And let’s apply that to everything, say, like sports, where the running back who gained 100 yards says “We lost because we didn’t try hard enough.” 000

Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Remember that Hungary is about as ethnically pure a state as there is in Europe (having been stripped of its empire after choosing the wrong side in 2 world wars.) She is the picture of homogeneity vs the totally diverse USA. Much easier for the brilliant Orbán than for functionally illiterate 🍊💩🤡. 001

Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025“DEI” is the current iteration of Lee Atwaters’ n*gger euphemisms. It is true racism in that it assumes one is inferior if Black. 000

Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 17/03/2025I lost my voce 3 years ago screaming “THE TRUMP CULT IS THE DERANGEMENT!” If trump critics are so stupid and gullible as to accept the label themSELVES, there is no hope for any of us. 040
Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 16/03/2025trump*s “extraordinary” speech at DOJ was pure Mussolini. That he was not confronted by vocal outrage, both there and on his way back testifies how far down the psychopath we have wandered. Republicans did not object, demonstrating, once again, that they are with the tyrant all the way. 020
Mike Pod- @podnieman.bsky.social · 16/03/2025I have a funny take. Society slowly deteriorates. Anti-social behavior. Crudeness. Rudeness. Increasingly scofflaw: “I’ll do it if I think I can get away with it.” Increasingly feral behavior till it starts to feel anarchic. Then Boom. Fascist fist comes down to snap back to order, but imposed order 100
