Sorry to hear about your dad. She's maga, but she called his shirts "Nazi shirts"?

Also, I guess I did see one person wearing one of those in public, but I think it might have been some School of Mines student in Golden. The other college-aged people sitting with him were not wearing anything politically affiliated, so I'm not even sure it was the actual hat.

Teaching kids about evolution

Most of the conservatives really do want to roll back all of the Enlightenment, and probably keep the Internet and smart phones and other modern conveniences (for themselves, mostly).

The idea of getting at the truth really does offend them, I think. Just look at how they argue about things, how they now attack facts ("alternative facts", for instance) and science and education.

LOL, this should be the guiding principle that people need to tell people, especially those prone to conservative mindsets, and tell them all their lives, starting in kindergarten.

Don't like atheism? Don't be one. Same goes for being Wiccan/Muslim/Catholic/Mormon/Jewish, etc. Don't want an abortion? Don't get one. Don't like university? Okay, don't go. Don't like men having sex with each other? Okay, you probably were not invited anyway.

And so on....but reiterate that you don't get to interfere with others' choices. Do this from childhood.

I've never been to a drag show and it's not really on my bucket list, either....but if others want to go, that's their choice. These busybody Karens need to find something constructive to do with their time.

Remember - the conservatives are the same dipshits that try to claim that Trump Derangement Syndrome, TDS (sigh - they cannot even be original, of course) is a mental disorder. Because yeah, pointing out the crimes, the incompetency, the insanity, the cruelty, the stupidity, of donnie and his minions is "derangement" and not something conservatives just use to cover their butthurt.

We can laugh, but the Soviets were rather famous in declaring perfectly sane people as "insane" and then off to the gulags with them...

Someone is going to have to define "maga" as anything other than a nonsense baby-word that sounds like goo-goo and gaa-gaa.

For the most part, it has only meant people stupid and terrible enough to buy into a washed-up never-was like donnie and to put on that stupid hat [1]. So when people talk about who or what is "true" maga, it just makes me laugh because it just looks like The Tribe That Rubs Shit In Their Hair finally found someone awful enough for them to worship.

[1] By the way, anyone ever see any of them wearing that hat when they aren't in a big group of them? I never see any of these pussies wearing that hat by themselves.

stable visa or even citizenship.

We should be doing that. The H1-B thing is a scam. If we really cannot find talent locally, then we should grant them citizenship or very long term, stable visa.

Now that we have donnie the dotard and the likes of Stephen Miller threatening to even revoke citizenship though, I would imagine anyone thinking of coming here is definitely thinking twice - that any time some reactionary assholes get into the WH, that their very livelihoods - and even lives - could be at stake.

Yeah, but the corporate media is whipping up intergenerational warfare, recycling sentiments behind slogans like "don't trust anyone over 30" (oh, the delicious irony) so we all must take the bait and grumble about "boomers" as if they are monolithic set of people...and tacitly support policies that will harm anyone that is not a centimillionaire+ in assets.

They should rename themselves Three Moms [1] For (Southern) Liberty, since their kind of "liberty" is not the type of liberty most people are familiar with.

[1] By the way, one of the moms was involved with a threesome with her husband. Her husband is now tied up in some assault accusation since he showed up to bang the other woman even when she cancelled because she was more into one of the moms for "liberty", it seems. In other words, good xtian family values types that should totally be involved in what teachers divulge about other people's kids.
