We do not care if it offends or upsets you because it‘s a political post and not “book-related,” because we‘re going to say it anyway: If you support a man who thinks teaching people that owning human beings is “woke,” you might be —nay, you ARE —a fascist Nazi.

Amiable @LeeRHarry I have some words with 4-letters, too. And also —his name must be on every single page of the Epstein files based on all of the distractions he‘s trying to throw out. 1w

mcctrish I was watching some shit tv review on Jillian Michaels weighing in on support of this - how is a gay woman a MAHA/MAGA cult member? Just no! 1w

ElizaMarie I don't know how/why people don't seem to understand that reading IS political. 1w

JenReadsAlot I'm so beyond disgusted..... 1w

Amiable @JenReadsAlot At this point I‘m more disgusted by his supporters. He‘s never hidden what he is. This could have ended at any point if Republicans had any moral courage, integrity, ethics or backbone. But those concepts are apparently too “woke” for them as well. 1w

TheBookHippie He is who he is. His supporters and enablers are the scourge of evil. 1w

TheBookHippie @mcctrish she is beyond complicit. 1w

TheBookHippie @ElizaMarie people don‘t like to be called out. 1w

JenReadsAlot I feel that too. Cannot deal with anyone who supports him either 1w

Aims42 My mom had a Trumper come up to her and start talking to her and she was so disgusted and also shocked by how many blatant conspiracy theories he was telling her 🤢🤮 Does anyone have a good response for these situations? I mean besides smacking them upside their head and asking what‘s wrong with them? 1w

TheBookHippie @Aims42 I tell them I‘ll pray for them. Probs not appropriate 😂😬🤣 I would like a better response…my daughter says bless your heart. Honestly it‘s so off the wall does it even matter what we say? 1w

Jari-chan @Amiable Oh, I love that! I would cheer on every person I'd see wearing that. 1w

Suet624 Thank you!! 1w

Aims42 @TheBookHippie I would just love a quick, witty thing that would shut them up 😆 I‘ll remember you and your daughter‘s replies! 1w

lil1inblue And this is precisely why reading IS political. That's how we keep the truth alive - by reading our real history. 🙌 🙌 🙌 1w

ravenlee @mcctrish she‘s always been a pretty garbage human; now it‘s just louder. 1w

Deblovestoread 💯. We knew exactly who he was from day one. It is out there for all to see. Those that support him and those that are quiet even when they know it‘s wrong are allowing it to happen. Shame on all of them. And because of their silence we will be louder! 1w

dabbe One of the most P✊🏻WERFULheartfelt posts I have ever read. Thank you for your forthrightness and integrity. You hit all the “woke“ nails on the head. And you're so right: it's the people who STILL support him after remarks like this that I just cannot understand or support. How they can even physically wake“ up every morning, look at themselves in the mirror, and STILL believe in this fascist ass is completely beyond my comprehension. 💙✊🏻💙 1w

Stupidity | Avital Ronell

Dear Canadians,
I'm sorry our U.S. representatives are complete a$$hats. We don't all agree with them. I can't even imagine how bad the smoke is for y'all. But your response to this nonsense is freaking epic.
Love, lil1inblue

Bookwormjillk This is funny. Sorry about your fires though Canada. 3w

KadaGul So Canada 🇨🇦 is facing its Commercial Exhaust fans towards the USA 🇺🇸 so it doesn't have to deal with WILDFIRE 😤🤬😡😠😤🤬. It's natural wildfire 🔥🚒 when Californian wildfires harm bordering Canadian 🇨🇦 cities, no one raises a concern 🤨.#AnotherDumbIdeaByMango (edited) 3w

lil1inblue @Bookwormjillk My favorite part: "These are attention-seekers who can't come up with a good idea on health care or on making life more affordable," Kinew told The Canadian Press. "So they're playing games with something that's very serious." 3w

lil1inblue @KadaGul 🎯🎯🎯 In a different article I read, it was pointed out that smoke goes both ways across the border. This administration is so exhausting. 3w

TheBookHippie Oy. 3w

LiseWorks Hey Canada has been blamed for a lot of things over the years. Even snow is blamed on Canada. Do they actually want us to kind of have a glass wall or something to king the smoke on our side? 😆 🤣 3w

Eggbeater It's ironic, republicans being concerned about the environment. I am sorry, Canada. 3w

lil1inblue @TheBookHippie My "rep" can't show up in his district unless it's a fundraiser, but he can harass Canada? To refer back to my three lis thursday honorable mention: "Fuck wank bugger shitting arse head in hole." 3w

lil1inblue @LiseWorks What was that thing the #fluorescentfascist wanted to do to stop the hurricanes? Maybe that will work on the smoke. 🤣🤣🤣 (Also, thanks for the snow. I enjoy it. 😉) 3w

lil1inblue @Eggbeater How do the people who support them not see the inconsistency? I will never understand. 🤔 3w

TheBookHippie @lil1inblue honest to god these people 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 3w

willaful I love Vonnegut's description of the Totalitarian mind as like gears with missing teeth: “The missing teeth, of course, are simple, obvious truths, truths available and comprehensible even to ten-year-olds, in most cases.

The willful filing off of gear teeth, the willful doing without certain obvious pieces of information... That is the closest I can come to explaining the legions, the nations of lunatics I‘ve seen in my time.“

Mental Health Awareness: What You Need to Know about Mental Illness | Patricia a Carlisle

#ranttime I‘m so f‘n livid. Being homeless is not a crime. Drug addiction is not a crime. Mental health is not a crime. The current administration has just lumped 3 different issues into one. Criminalizing people with mental health disorders just puts them more at risk for being put in jail. As a mom of 3 neurodivergent kids this is horrific. This is going to make people more fearful to call for assistance if a person is having a mental health

ncsufoxes emergency for fear that their loved one will be met with police violence or taken to jail. This puts young teens and adults with Autism & co-occurring conditions (there is a high rate of co-occurrence with things like anxiety, depression) at greater risk. Having access to trained mental health professionals & medication management is what people need. Not to be institutionalized or jailed. People need more resources & access, not this. 1mo

dabbe The ONLY reason I hit the heart button was to support YOU and all who will be affected by this. I just can't believe the f'n insanity and evil of this administration. Everything you said ... 🎯🩵🎯🩵🎯🩵 1mo

Aims42 I‘m with @dabbe on the reason behind ‘hearting‘ this incredibly horrific update 😔💔 You said it, “people need more resources and access, NOT THIS!” ✊🏻 1mo

TheBookHippie 1930s Germany has arrived… eugenics. This puts so many people at massive risk. I‘m so exasperated and angry … evil incarnate. 1mo

CBee I‘m just…… I don‘t even know what to say. @ncsufoxes so many people, including my youngest son and your kids, could be affected by this. Heck, I have a depression and anxiety diagnosis - will they lock me up too? 😡 1mo

ncsufoxes Not to mention how Kennedy wants to limits kids access to medications & his dismissal of mental health medications. My kid is finally stable (after years of trying different combos, one combo that left him neutropenic during the pandemic). These people don‘t understand the exhaustion of monitoring, worrying, planning that is involved with kids with mental health conditions. There is also a shortage of psychiatrists & psychologists in the US as it 1mo

ncsufoxes is. The new caps on medical school student loans will further reduce the amount of qualified professionals in the future. I can‘t even begin to describe the bad doctors & unhelpful info we‘ve gotten over the years. As a country we were moving away from institutions because they were not found to be the best way to treat people. There has been so much research into evidence based & community based treatments over the last few years. They are also 1mo

Susanita Taking us back to the 1800s when America was great 🤬 1mo

ncsufoxes further stereotyping people with mental health conditions. Painting them as erratic & dangerous. Is this administration also going to account for all of the dismantling of programs that significantly impacts all of these groups. 1mo

ncsufoxes @TheBookHippie exactly. Currently everything they are doing to the disability community & mental health community is eugenics, plain & simple. 1mo

ncsufoxes @Dabbe & @Aims42 🫶🏻💓 1mo

ncsufoxes @CBee like we don‘t have enough to worry about already. It‘s just exhausting & exasperating 1mo

TheBookHippie @ncsufoxes Yup. Trying to make safety networks as fast as we can. So much all at once is the plan of this orange Satan ... The ACLU is working all the time I tell everyone just send them 5 bucks I promise they‘ll use it for good. I‘m doing all I can with the ability I have. It‘s all any of us can do. 1mo

AnnCrystal WHAT THE 🤬🤬🤬... 1mo

CBee @ncsufoxes right there with you ♥️😥 1mo

Amiable Every damn day with this cruel and heartyadministration. Every. Damn. Day. 😩🤬 1mo

KadaGul If all homelessness, drug addiction, and mental illness are crimes, then they had better finish constructing those prisons by tomorrow because the number of people who fall in those categories is in triple digits. #ANOTHERDUMBIDEABYMANGO 1mo

Deblovestoread Right on point! 🤬🤬🤬 1mo

Librarybelle Ugh 🤬 1mo

ncsufoxes @KadaGul the point too is that they want to criminalize people & have them sit in prison. Prisons are now privatized, many of our lawmakers get funded by groups that benefit from private prisons (our attorney generals family is owner of a company that builds ICE prisons). Private prisons can charge the govt tons of money. There are too many people with mental health conditions in the general prison population & get denied meds. Not to mention 1mo

ncsufoxes there are almost 800,000 homeless people in this country (that‘s the best estimate by advocacy groups). The numbers only going to grow with loss of jobs, rising costs, cuts to Veterans services, cuts to Section 8 housing. Our country has over 4 million people in the prison system (on bail, in jail, on parole). It‘s higher than any other nation. Now they‘re giving the green light to increase those numbers. For this false narrative of 1mo

ncsufoxes characterizing people in these groups as dangerous. It‘s again another horrific policy that will make things worse. 1mo

KadaGul Our criminal system was never meant to punish a criminal. It is designed to put shackles on a group of people they don't like. If it were meant for criminals, our crime rate wouldn't be where it is today. 1mo

Eggbeater Hearing this was traumatic. 1mo

Billypar Yeah, you're 100% right. It's a nonstop trainwreck. I'm very disappointed that New York has put similar legislation into effect (though our governor also invested a lot in mental health, so not the same by any stretch). I think a lot about how those who follow him who are supposedly Christians and/or 'fiscal hawks'... such hypocrisy on a massive scale. 1mo
