re: #185 Hecuba’s daughter

This is very bad. 48% of the population — a very armed 48% — are buying into this lie thanks to their absolute worship of Agolf and their loyalty to media that promote this narrative. Hitler started with a much lower percentage of public support. These are the type of people who brought us Timothy McVeigh, who tried to assassinate Gabby Gifford, who gave us Dylann Roof, who caused the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre, who tried to kidnap Governor Whitmer… The “stab in the back” story can be a very effective motivator of those who belong to the cult. And think how many buy into the QAnon fantasy?

We are trying to climb out of the darkness but instead of supporting the legitimacy of the Biden election, the GOP is working overtime to push us back into it. Yes — most of the state-level party in GOP-run states that awarded Biden their votes are behaving like loyal Americans. But that’s not true of all of them. And several GOP AGs — including Daniel Cameron, he of Breonna Taylor fame — are trying to force SCOTUS to rule that Biden did not win Pennsylvania. The failure of McConnell and the rest of the Washington GOP to announce that Biden has won signals dark days ahead.

Someone or other did a poll that found that 80% of Americans agreed that Biden won the election. The deniers are just very, very loud.

(Million-man-march drew maybe ten thousand, Twitter doesn’t reflect reality, yada, yada.)
