12/14 Instead of crying rigged election, maybe it’s time to admit that biases are still alive and kicking. It’s easier to blame secret plots than face the fact that a lot of people have too much hate and misogynoir in their hearts to vote for a Black woman to have power.

Tuiter se ha convertido en una cloaca filofascista así que a partir de ahora estaré mucho más por aquí.

@duhe.bsky.social But that came at the price of the devastation of Europe.

@atomicpoet Shows they're unable to connect with those who voted on the idea that T is a strong, moral and clever man, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Watched this movie the other day, was half joking with my brother that the imagery was prophetic. Too soon. :(

@urbanfoxe I have just heard some Democrat apparatchik on the radio talking about "Well'll see n four years time if Trump does the things he said in the campaign." Hello? Bit late for that, and we've had 8 years of seeing what he does, in and out of power.
