    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      They are turning "existential risk" into a phrase that has identical meaning and political valence as cries of racism do.

      They have gone top shelf with their words, there is nothing left now.

      Maybe next they can accuse Republicans of destroying all life across the universe, rather than just here on earth.

      When I count my blessings, the one where I'm not a complete pussy is near the top. Living in a world where you feel surrounded by existential threats, can't be much fun.

      Education is extremely important.

        Who's going to tell Horace and Jolly about the "Flight 93 election"?

          My guess is, not you. Then you would have to put something into your own words.

            I'm always amazed at how the threats to our democracy are caused by the people who, you know, vote.

                Unfortunately, we’ll never really know who actually voted in 2020 since Democrat AGs and Governors decided to ignore the basic laws requiring signatures and ID verification for mail in ballots.

                  I think the idea is that Republican voters are some combination of evil and ignorant, and are either hoping their candidate absconds with our Democracy, or simply do not understand that the candidate wants to.

                        That about covers it. If you can hand-wave a theory about why our Democracy is caput if the other tribe is elected, then voila, you never have to rationally defend your own party's policies or governance ever again. You can continue to swim in the main stream, free from any turbulence a rational political thought might cause you.
