@CrowLilac @joshtpm I was just talking with Stacey about this sort of blatant racism still being so commonplace for us in the states even though we’re taught in school that it all ended when Martin Luther King, Jr. came along. It’s hard to face, but it’s true.

@joshtpm @misskate45 OK, well that is appalling. I'm in UK and we don't always get these angles.

It's important to absorb how obscene this Michigan gambit is. Detroit is the most African-American city in the USA. Almost 83% black. And straight up the argument is: throw out that city's votes so we can win. Zero evidence of anything but Americans voting. But they don't count.

@UberFacts Outer space. Specifically scared of coming loose from a space walk and hurling through the abyss forever. Had recurring nightmares about it.

What was your most irrational fear as a kid? 💭

@CrowLilac @russell_bateman @nytimes It appears that Russell has deleted his account. 🤔

@CrowLilac @russell_bateman @nytimes You have done a great job keeping this conversation elevated. I live in “redneck” USA (where he won easily both elections). All conversations between trump followers and the rest of us have this same tone of abrasiveness with thin arguments and lots of insults.

His candidacy did not stir an Obama-like youth movement or a Trump-like cult of personality, but Joe Biden ran for the White House as a sober and conventional presence, a case study in discipline and restraint. Here’s how he won: nyti.ms/38n27bT

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes I still want someone to tell me what “a lot of good things” he did. His wall will be his folly. It’s a piece of wall. The bad guys can go around. Are there less drugs and crime? Any other examples of the good things he’s done?

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes There are so many other things he has done openly that should have caused so many alarms to go off but his followers double down and defend him harder. 9.5 out of 10 times any attempt at a dialogue will end in frustration and sadness on your end and anger on theirs.

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes The things these folks love about trump are all rooted in negativity. He appeals to the ugliest parts of people. He wants us to hate and fear anything different from us. He openly mocked the disabled. Take that alone and it should call his character in to question.

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes But keep hurling insults if you want. I don’t think they’re having the desired effect though. They are just reinforcing EVERY experience I have had with a red hatter.

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes Again. You don’t know me so the assumption that I don’t accept different opinions is baseless. I accept civilized dialogue if any kind even if it challenges the core of my beliefs. We aren’t enemies from my perspective. Just 2 people who disagree.

@russell_bateman @CrowLilac @nytimes This way of thinking is just problematic for us as a country. It’s uncivilized and I won’t take part in it. I hope you find whatever you need to settle your heart and give you peace. We don’t have to be enemies because we disagree. That’s just a horribly isolating way to live. ✌🏻

@CrowLilac @russell_bateman @nytimes We have this promise!

@misskate45 @russell_bateman @nytimes Patience and faith win the day. It is not those with the most power or the greatest strength who will prevail but those who can endure!

@CrowLilac @russell_bateman @nytimes Not fast enough!

@misskate45 @russell_bateman @nytimes So, Boris Johnson, blond bumbler that he is, has been speaking with President Elect Biden. I suggest this a sign of Trump's old 'friends' deserting him for reality.....

@CrowLilac @russell_bateman @nytimes I believe he’s thrown off by complete sentences.

@russell_bateman @misskate45 @nytimes No, Russell? Nothing yet? 🤔

@CrowLilac It’s very clear to those of us who don’t buy in to the rhetoric. What’s scary is how many of his followers take every word he says as gospel and just parrot it with all of the vitriol they can muster.

@misskate45 It's obvious that Trump is trying to undermine confidence in the democratic process. He's a dictator in waiting, wanting desperately to be like his friend, Putin......

@misskate45 morning. Today my wife received an e mail from a Sidney Powell, attorney. He appears to be a right wing lunatic Trump supporter. Can you tell me anything about him?
