A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. Thereâs no point at which they will say âweâve won, letâs enjoy life.â They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. Theyâre empty without that.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesnât like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

If Republicans aren't 'nazis' why do they keep behaving in ways so similar to those people 80 years ago? Fine they're not 'nazis' they're new fascists. Same difference. Your denialism only serves their purpose.

One of the most stressful thing about being a modern CEO is the salary gap has gotten so large that you have to carry so much animosity from your workers. Reducing your salary is a sure way to reduce that major source of stress.

There is no such thing as unidentified law enforcement. Unless they identify themselves they cannot be law enforcement, they are simply kidnappers. If the local police department don't know who they were they are they should be treating this as criminal activity.
