At a certain point it is just willful ignorance to not learn what it is the most evil chunks of our country wants to do and why. ——— Just rolling out of bed, anyway. Yes on second look this is old. I don’t think that takes away from my doomsaying ‘that’s the direction they’re going’, first abortion then the gays then racial hierarchy. These are the traditional values of America that we have stripped away.

Anywhoo here’s an article about it and Il make a follow up post https://www.indystar.com/story/news/politics/2022/03/23/how-indiana-reacted-mike-brauns-comments-interracial-marriage/7138541001/

The Gish Gallop* has gone from being a debating tactic to the entirety of the GOP platform.

*The Gish Gallop means that you throw out so many lies, half-truths and bizarre asides that your debate opponent spends all their time trying to get back to the issue at hand.
