It never fails to amaze me.
The fascists will break every rule, flout every law, ignore every precedent.
The democrats insist on following every rule, adhering to every law, and follow every precedent...as if the last thirty years hadn't happened.
This is why I say politeness so often obstructs progress. Like King said about "the White moderate who is more devoted to 'order' than to justice" - it's all about "being" good rather than actually DOING any good ๐
Politeness doesn't work if only one side is being polite.
Love me some Michelle Obama, but "when they go low, we go high" encapsulates everything that's wrong with this country right now.
When they go low, you stomp their fascist asses until they can't get up.
Like from a Black woman perspective, absolutely have learned "they go low, you go high" as a survival tactic, because we learn we don't have the privilege to go low, we face harsh consequences
...but the WHOLE ASS GOVERNMENT can go a LITTLE LOW when the stakes are THIS HIGH ๐คฆ๐พโโ๏ธ
Fair enough.
As a former high school wrestler, and a guy who played a little football, if you high when they go low, you end up on your ass.
Understand where you're coming from, completely. As you said: Government.
