14. I am firing the afterburners on Activism and Satire.
Tue Sep 23, 2025, 06:41 PM
Tuesday

And TBH, it takes a bit of time to create some of those fabulous memes, and I don't get many rec's (not that rec's are what I'm here for) but you know, it makes me feel good to "stick it to the man-child" and the Activist posts really make a difference. Even if small, they all add up.

I can't emphasize enough the Epstein angle. That orange turd would get torn limb from limb by his own crowd if they knew what any rational person suspects. If it's Putin holding the videos (KGB veteran, host to the Miss Universe contest in Russia .... what're the chances, eh?) then every damn piece of the puzzle fits.

Anyway, more of that here:

"It's not a "conspiracy theory" if it is a real conspiracy" and history is chock full of conspiracies.

It's how evil people work.

Now, understanding what's going on doesn't solve it, but pointing to the root problem might help others understand, and helps me create/modify satirical material and gives me impetus to copy those long "Indivisible" posts and Bernie Sanders emails late into the night.

Bernie hits the nail on the head (Oligarchy) and gets great response in deep red states.

and yes, I kick ass for the party to get on board this UNIFYING message.
(besides all the other great messages)

Good ones are at "The Way Forward" and "Activist Headquarters"

Disheartened? These people never gave up when faced with enormous obstacles.
