They say in politics, liberals are the gas pedal, and conservatives are the brakes, and I'm generally with the gas pedal, but not if we're driving off a cliff.
@billmaher So tired of these takes… Trump and MAGA openly flirting with authoritarian rule is the actual “gas pedal” of extremism right now, and its not even debatable.
@planterspunch7 @billmaher Covid showed us who the authoritarians are. The one thing it was good for. Hint: The authoritarians are the blue states and cities.
@ClashWho @planterspunch7 @billmaher The blue states & cities aren’t the ones imposing draconian abortion, voting rights, gender affirming care, & book bans - they’re not the ones prosecuting doctors & librarians for doing their jobs. So tell me who the authoritarian ones are again?
@petradenison @planterspunch7 @billmaher Participation went up after Georgia's voter integrity law. Gender affirming care for minors is a growing medical catastrophe with all of Europe reversing course to halt the damage. And saying certain books are inappropriate for grade school children is hardly book banning.
@ClashWho Funny how you dodged addressing abortion. The others I’ll come back to.
