There’s also the case of convicted rapist Brock Allen Turner who is now goes by convicted rapist Allen Turner who was convicted of rape but received a light sentence because he was an athlete and from a rich family.

And let’s not forget Ethan Anthony Couch who received an incredibly light sentence (he was essentially ordered to rehab) after being convicted of killing 4 in a drunk driving accident, while he was already on a restricted license. His legal defense was that he was unable to realize consequences of his behavior because of affluenza.

Florida… home to the pedo in chief

Don’t forget that Pam Bondi was Florida AG 2011-2018.

You’re stating that anyone doesn’t deserve democracy. Authoritarians and abusers will say similar things while imposing their will on others.

No, asshole, you don’t get to come in and sanctimoniously declare that none of us deserve democracy. Fuck you and your privileged self.

they don’t deserve to have democracy as a people

Hey fuck you. Eat shit. Die in a fucking chemical car fire. No, better yet, live through one and be horribly disfigured and live out your days in unbearable pain.

Those people on the street are building connections, coalitions, and community around resistance. If the protests didn’t mean anything and weren’t effective they wouldn’t be getting met with such a violent reaction from the regime.

Stop with the doomerism, get off the keyboard, and get involved.

Could you imagime the scandal?

In their own word, from Republican senator Barry Goldwater:

Those who seek absolute power, even though they seek it to do what they regard as good, are simply demanding the right to enforce their own version of heaven on earth. And let me remind you, they are the very ones who always create the most hellish tyrannies.

And another:

Republicans are selling their soul to win elections. Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the party, and they’re sure trying to do so, it’s going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. The government won’t work without it. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can’t and won’t compromise. I know, I’ve tried to deal with them.
