JFC, the rapidity at which Desantis is embracing and instituting fascism is beyond alarming. Moderates better get their heads out of the sand in Florida.

The absolute destruction of truth by right wing media has been a complete disaster, pure evil in how it has fooled lay people into thinking that doctors and healthcare providers are out to trick them and hurt them.
This will take decades, if ever, to fix. 3/3

Those who used to say 'my choice' about wearing a mask are now getting more aggressive about how me masking is somehow an affront to them. This is what happens when facts die as ideology trumps reality. 2/

That is the part that everyone here in NI is in utter denial about. They refuse to see that their bigotry and hate have consequences. Problem for NI GOP is if they can't shoot it or gaslight it, they have no solution for it.

Thanks! It has been a long process. I'm trying to holdout here, but the legislature is trying to make that really hard. Idaho already has the lowest per capita for HCP's in the US and it is only going to get worse. These anti intellectual morons don't realize they rely on us.

Will be talking with my kids about it and hope it will help make an already difficult age a little easier to navigate.
Funny how seemingly trite and silly social media trends can actually reveal more profound truths about ourselves.

internalizing abuse at the hands of others and thinking it was their fault.
I think this is important to convey to current teens, that at that age it is far too easy to be harsh and toxic to one self on top of outside turmoil and abuses. 3/

I think there is a point here that SW deserve safety as well. What if there was a 'Spoutible After Dark' version or the like that people could choose to activate if they want that content, otherwise its not in the algorithm? SWs could find a safe space and those not wanting it can opt out.

There are a lot of people who have no business being in healthcare. Wish schools were as discerning with regards to empathy and moral reasoning as they are grades and academic achievement when they admit us into such programs.

My friend @abbottalynn has talked a lot about how here in rural Idaho, we have an utter news desert. Nothing but Foxnews and shuysters on social media. Easy to manipulate the masses when the media is complicit.

Astounds me how the GOP lies right to their constituents face . . . and their constituents just roll with it. No outrage. No anger. No consequences for being lied to. How do you deal with people who welcome being gaslit and economically exploited as long as they can hate immigrants and queer people.

So I’m curious as to why humans are so prone to refuse to offer empathy even though we all intrinsically crave and appreciate it. It’s such an odd and sadly destructive phenomenon. More specifically how do we fix this? /end

they are immediately disarmed and appreciate, if not crave said empathy. So even though they refuse to offer it and won’t let others have it, they are compelled to respond positively when they receive it. 3/

Zero sum belief that if they aren’t the ones exploiting someone, they themselves must be the ones being exploited. A core principle for them is to never extend empathy. Yet, if during their visit with me I empathize with a condition they are dealing with, 2/

Those ads are disingenuous gaslighting. I grew up in fundamentalist circles and the whiplash from being told Jesus loves everyone as a child to then being expected as an adult that empathy is 'socialism' is one hell of a mindfuck.

I grew up in Hayden only a few miles away from the Aryan Nations compound and while its been gone 20 yrs, I feel the white supremacy is the worst its been. Far too many conservatives who like their privilege right where it is.

Raised evangelical, was comfortable as I'm a white cis het male, so have all the privilege, but couldn't get over the cognitive dissonance of a bible that fails under scrutiny and is clearly not divine or particularly moral.

One of the major resources for those looking to leave evangelicism and rebuild their lives into a moral, empathetic framework should look into authors such as Chrissy Stroop who have also lived this and been through the pain and anxiety of deconstruction. 2/
