So.. I'm probably going to be taking a more permanent break from BlueSky. Not that I think anyone will miss me. But when the post mortem happens I want to leave some clues for the examiners. 🧵 1/7

This whole the Dems can do, have done and will never do anything wrong BS you all have going on is ridiculous Am I a leftist? Maybe? I guess. If you think so. I certainly believe in labor unions, social security, and healthcare as a right. I don't consider that to be too much of a stretch 2/7
But someone I respected re-posted a thread this morning on how anyone who says anything bad about the Dems is a terrorist Seriously? A terrorist. For saying that the current batch of democrats seems more concerned about the health of Citizen's United than implications of Trump vs US? 3/7
Or for being angry at Schumer for his bipartisanship BS and his NYT screed about how his loyalty is to Israel? For thinking that Jefferies is bought and paid for after his anti-Mamdani crap? That trans rights are non-negotiable? That the homeless need HOMES? but opinions are terrorizing you? 4/7
I've voted Democrat for nearly 45 years. I may not like everything they do they are generally better than the GOP alternatives. I've always felt that voting was our responsibility but for the first time in my life I'm beginning to understand why no one showed up for the last election 5/7
"Equal Rights and Justice for all" If the USA isn't all about that... then what are we about? "Capitalism FTW"? Yeah.. I don't think so. I've put my whole heart into wanting to make America a better place since 1976 and the Bicentennial Celebration and campaigning for the ERA 6/7
But now I'm just a terrorist in the eyes of the people I thought were working towards the same goals I was. And it's a bit of a kick in the teeth. So I think I'm done, at least for now. Good luck to you all. See you on the flip side. Stay safe. Use ICEblock. 7/7
