It’s crazy to think Florida used to be a swing state.
Fox News is a gateway drug.
Fox News is a plague on our society
Lies are apparently the gateway to cruelty.
No question
I can’t wait for Rupert Murdoch to die. The man is responsible for so much hate and destruction in the world.

Propaganda is effective. Especially when there is no counter to its spread for decades.
The number of republicans that have moved here is huge. All my trans friends and most of my queer friends have left the state.
It also doesn’t help that the Florida Democratic party is even more of a dumpster fire than the national party. They even ran our former Republican governor as our Democrat cannidate for governor.
The boomer snow birds have taken over. Why won’t they just die already?
People who hate the most live the longest
Gen-X snowbirds are right behind them. Florida is the go to retirement location for fixed income “taxes are too damn high” crowd who are losing their internal heat generating abilities. The same wing of the Millennials will gravitate down there, too. And so on.
Im curious if that lasts. They rely huge on tourism to afford not having an income tax.
What a joke. Ok guys enough. The lunatics are running the asylum. Time to take away the keys

so business as usual?
I hate this fucking place.
Reminder that we’ve been here before, but worse. This too shall pass, be diligent.
If only a little gerrymandering were the only thing “here” consisted of.
To be clear, you think reconstruction era disenfranchisement was limited to “a little gerrymandering”?
Apologies, no. My point wasn’t to minimize your reference. My point was to emphasize that things are actually worse. I suspect we may find ourselves in a mix of pre-reconstruction America and a fascist dictatorship.
This is a bucket of five alarm fires. My parents said “We’ve been here before and we’ll get through this too.” but that was month ago. I thought it was naive then and it’s willfully ignorant now.
Congress is behind him and the Supreme Court is pretty much here to run interference. Hell, lawsuits at this point are just an opportunity for the Supreme Court to say “Fuck precedent, fuck progress, let’s roll back the clock.”
If the government violated your civil rights, you yourself have to take them to court yourself to stop them from doing it. It won’t stop the from doing it to your neighbor, they’d need to sue the government on their own. If you win, you the courts can just decide you are a special case and nothing changes. What’s the point of civil rights if you have to personally sue the government to stop them from violating them?
