So I missed this yesterday, and it explains why there was so much talk about ectopic pregnancies yesterday in my timeline.

There just doesn’t seem to be any fucking point to any of this, is there? Republicans get a free veto for anything and are taken as the most godly trustworthy voices fucking ever, real facts are treated as the grandest of partisanship, and people will pay the price for it.

And there’s been complaints about Dems somehow ‘refusing’ to work the refs or complain about this kind of shit.

I mean….have they seen what happens every single time any remotely prominent Dem tries to actually call them out? Obama was pilloried by the entirety of the media for calling out Fox. Dems were crucified for not wanting to go onto Fox for a ‘debate’. Every time someone tries, it’s met with united contempt in a way that the GOP never receives, and even if Dems try to persist through it, they end up paying a price for it rather than successfully ‘working the refs’.

The entire fucking playing field is uneven and we’re never fucking allowed to use any strategy the GOP uses because only they’re allowed to do anything ever, they’re the only valid party in this country according to our political atmosphere, and no matter how valid the complaint we have is, it’ll always be met with contempt, derision, and calls of treason.
