Sounds to me like raiding the TNR offices might be overdue.

Per wikipedia the author of that New Republic piece, Ana Marie Cox has bipolar disorder and is the survivor of a couple suicide attempts. She’s obviously suffering from several mental illness if she sincerely believes that the Dems’ problem is that they’re too kind, empathetic and polite.

These are some extremely sick hateful people. That they can be so convinced that they are superior to those who don’t agree with them is extremely disturbing. This is a level of delusion that doesn’t allow for discussion or self-reflection. It’s the kind of mindset that fueled the killings by the Bolsheviks, the death lists by Stalin, and the Holocaust.

Do the Democrats want to win future elections?

They expect to win the coming Civil War. They have the psychopaths mostly on their side.

“The left is evil” should be stated at every opportunity.

FME bipolars are immature, self-centered, cold-hearted, calculating and often quite evil. To say this author cant read the room is an understatement

So now the Dems will be “callous?” Slinging all that awful s*** about Kirk’s death was them NOT being callous?

Their “compassion” was already a mile wide and inches deep. So now it will be 0 inches deep?

“...Do the Democrats want to win future elections...?”

The folks pushing this sort of crap may not be worried about elections anymore. That’s the kind of talk that comes from revolutionaries, who think they’re winning, and that they’re now strong enough to “take it to the streets”, as it were.
I hope I’m wrong about that, but we’ll see.

“This is a horrible crime. Maybe Donald Trump should consider sending the National Guard to the Capitol and arresting all the Democrat terrorist legislators.”

This post (from comment section in NYP) nails it:

The Democratic Party and its leadership have transformed our political system into something resembling a circus. This is not simply the result of poor decision-making; it reflects a consistent agenda that is weakening the foundations of our nation. Once this reality is recognized, their actions become far easier to understand.

A clear pattern emerges:

Encouraging illegal immigration through open-border policies

Appeasing hostile foreign powers rather than defending American interests

Releasing criminals while simultaneously weakening local law enforcement

Restricting the rights of law-abiding citizens, particularly the right to self-defense

Dominating media outlets to spread partisan narratives

Using the education system to indoctrinate rather than educate

Ignoring constitutional limits on government power

Rewriting or erasing elements of American history

Exploiting impeachment and election processes for political gain

Advancing candidates who openly express disdain for the country they seek to lead

These actions are not isolated. They are supported by a network of entrenched bureaucrats—often referred to as the “deep state”—that insulates Democratic leaders from accountability. The result is a system where one party operates with near-total immunity, unrestrained by the checks and balances that were designed to protect our Republic.

It is precisely for moments like this that the Founding Fathers crafted the Constitution. They understood the dangers posed by factions and unchecked power, and they sought to safeguard future generations from such threats. Today, those safeguards are being tested.

To acknowledge these realities is not to engage in partisanship, but to confront a truth: the policies being advanced are not accidental missteps. They are deliberate, and they are eroding the very nation that so many generations fought to preserve.

For those who feel isolated in their concerns, you are not alone. The sentiment is shared by millions of Americans, captured memorably in Aaron Lewis’s song “Am I the Only One.” Its popularity reflects a growing recognition that our country is in jeopardy—and that silence is no longer an option.

can you imagine a civil war with these pukes? Blue-haired overweight lesbians that don’t have guns and skinny trans-furry guys that play a lot of video games? Wow. The “fight” would take 4 seconds.

Every Marxist looks exactly like that and is overweight. You keep telling yourself that man, and stay the hell away from me.

Not in person, but I remember seeing links to social media posts that did. On a grander scale I remember seeing many posts from zero Covidians that wished people would die for not taking the jabs. That was an eye opener..
