Fascism is the kitchen table issue that should center Democratic messaging. Dems need leadership that fights to bring fascists to the bar of justice, win the Civil War once and for all, and carry out a third Reconstruction.

Unquestionably, categorically unconstitutional and illegal. Why not say that?
Don Kronenberger (@donkronenberger.bsky.social) reply parent
“Distraction” should be banned from Democratic messaging. We need Democrat leadership that recognizes that the US has succumbed to fascism. We need Democrat leadership that will fight to bring fascists to justice, win the Civil War once and for all, and carry out a third Reconstruction.

Thanks, I am surprised to learn that. I did previously know that R.E. Lee was a treasonous traitor and badly beaten beta cuck loser. We’re still paying the price for the United States not having hanged Jefferson Davis and a few others.
Josh Marshall (@joshtpm.bsky.social) reposted
People are often surprised to learn that Lee was an officer who never made it past colonel. The purported promotion to general was awarded by a treasonous cabal calling itself the "confederate states of america" which was put down by force by the Union army, which also had superior generals.

The exchanges between Adam and ChatGPT are devastating. This, in my mind, is the worst one. One of his last messages was a photo of the noose hung in his bedroom closet, asking if it was "good." ChatGPT offered a technical analysis of the set up and told him it 'could potentially suspend a human."
