  1. Tom Powell Jr delivers a blunt, emotional breakdown of how Trump ended up back in the #WhiteHouse, it wasn’t just about racism or misogyny. It was about #EGO, #PROTESTVOTING, #Puritytests, and people who chose moral superiority instead of doing what it took to stop a maniac youtu.be/ev_CRbMfI2Y?...

  3. @benroyce @todymotmot @profdc9 @GutterPoetry @zakalwe The absolutist view where a candidate or party needs to adhere rigidly and totally to a list of essential principles or they’re unacceptable is pretty frustrating. You can’t vote to save democracy because they won’t cater specifically to a particular subgroup’s extreme stance…

    >> #purityTests the #GOP has started to enforce post-#Trump.

    The nice thing about #Mastodon is the ease with which one can block #trolls and types who lack basic #civility. Truth is you know little or nothing about me nor I of you.

    I responded to your comment I believe with courtesy and yet you chose to ridicule me. It appears you don’t believe in the exchange of ideas, rather you prefer a scorched earth policy of sneers and dismissal as being the best way to persuade. I think you’ll find that is not the path to success

  8. @heidilifeldman Yup. Count on it.

    States controlled by #MAGAextremists will *never* allow such primaries, which they use as #PurityTests.

  10. "This is not the historical moment for an ethical purity test. In 2024, the Republican Party will likely run either twice-indicted, twice-impeached criminal con man Donald Trump or neo-fascist Florida governor Ron DeSantis. If you have the opportunity to vote against Nazis, vote against Nazis, because if they get to power, you won’t be voting again."
