A fucking good analysis, James. These fuck knuckles are given too much credit. There's a lot of supporters for the hate that prick has exposed - albeit more subtle, here in NZ too. It makes me sick. As always, a great read. Thanks.

"and Lincoln said I don’t fucking so and there was a big-ass war and about 650,000 people died."

I think there's a "think" missing in there.

True. But I "think" it's understood anyway! 🙂

"Pasty Penis Possessors." Nice alliteration there.

Whiny know-nothings who hitch their wagon to a proto-fascist who presses their angry and aggrieved buttons. Agent Orange is making his 'persecution' at the hands of federal authorities the centrepiece of his 2024 campaign.

Though if Florida and Texas were to secede, I say let 'em go -- and let everyone who wants to follow Christofascism on social issues and the libertarian "your on your own" ethos on economic issues move down there to join them. Don't let the screen door hit you!

Yes! I met a Canadian libertarian recently and got educated by him. Independence and self reliance he said - like his pioneering ancestors; "You're on your own out here on the Canadian prairie", so I'm not taking that fucking Jacinda vaccine!

But he'll take all the government benefits he's entitled to. Fair enough. Chur!

Hope that you're right. I live down in the insane asylum otherwise known as the USA, and I interact with enough of these nuts that I'm not so sure.................

Brilliant! Thank you for explaining with such concise clarity that regardless of what happens with trumpster fire's legal proceedings, the 24 election cycle should be our main focus and concern. I'm sure there will be plenty of violence and chaos, and we do need to tend to it, but we can't let fears about civil war distract us from doing everything we possibly can to prevent any more fascists from winning elections next time around.
