Thank A Masshole

Doctor Solar Man Of The Atom #15, December 1965, cover by George Wilson

Do I have this right? During the election, the fascist republicans were an existential threat to everything we hold dear in America, and the only way to stop them was to send $3 or $5 or whatever to the bullshit fund, so we could elect Democrats who will stop it.

Okay, we tried that and we lost. So now we are really relying on those same Democrats and that same Democratic party to do everything within their power to protect us from the terrifying threat they all warned us about.

Some Democrats have been amazing -- Jasmine Crockett, AOC, Chris Murphy all come to mind -- while the leaders in both houses continue to do nothing more than spout empty platitudes in public, and rubber stamp the most incompetent, unqualified, dangerous, nominees in the history of the country.

There's not a lot the House can do now -- that's coming up soon -- but the Senate has had a number of opportunities to slow things down and make it hard for the fascists to enact their Project 2025 agenda.

And the Senate leader, with the exception of one performative and ultimately pointless filibuster, has done fuck all with the powers the minority has in the chamber.

I am furious that Schumer allowed his caucus to grant unanimous consent for anything, but he's done it, again, and this time we have Tulsi Gabbard -- Tulsi fucking Gabbard! -- as the Director of National Intelligence as a result.

Chuck Schumer is an absolute failure of a leader in the Senate. We are crying out for leadership and support as we fight to protect America from these fascists, and instead he insults and demoralizes us with droning lectures like we've all been called to the principal's office, and an absolute refusal to fight for anything.

I got thousands of text messages and emails from Democrats all over the country, correctly warning us that if Trump were not defeated, we were looking at a nightmare of fascism, crony capitalism, corruption, and targeted cruelty.

Well, we’re here … where is the fucking fight, Senator? Did all the existential threats just vanish the day after the election?

Schumer has made it painfully clear that he values some version of Senate collegiality that no longer exists, and that he has zero fight in him.

This moment demands action and a willingness to use every single lever of government to slow this down, and this old, wealthy, out of touch, effete, relic of a time that no longer exists is catastrophically letting us all down.

Reblog if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, transgender or a supporter.

This should be reblogged by everyone. Even if you’re straight, you should be a supporter.

As of Jan 21st, 2025, a full copy of the constitution is no longer available on whitehouse.gov. I feel like this is a good time to remind everyone that the biggest threat to authoritarianism and facism is a well educated and informed population. Inform yourself and fight.

a copy of the document can still be found on the archives website. I think now is probably a good time to read it if you haven't and download it, incase it is erased from here as well.

What are you still undecided about? You choose your hard sissy, Forced feminization or Consensual?

Neither thank you, good day.

For 1953, this was pretty amazing.
