It's not just Trump; all elected officials should be legally banned or at least prohibited by some ethics code from pressing buttons on the bird app.

They do this every time someone dies.

Please don't look at the tweet replies to the @RoyalFamily tweet on Prince Philip's death today.

I'm sorry, nobody who did her stupid starvation wage curtsy gets to use the phrase Rest in Power. Sorry for your loss though.

Of course she isn't. The fact that a US Senator is spending her time saying things like "delete your account" and "not tonight, Satan" to coldhearted randos on Twitter Dot Com is beneath her dignity anyway.

Here's the thing about the radical left - by and large they're not as bad as the worst of the far-right, but they sure do their best to convince people otherwise through sheer performative grossness.

That comment was not inappropriate or out of place, it’s perfectly fair and I believe Sinema once again has shown she cares more about her public appearance than...well actually passing important legislation.

Sure it’s crude, but that’s necessary. Kyrsten is singlehandedly (wel I guess with Manchin) stepping on the throat of Democracy and enabling extremist-GOP nutters in 2022 and she knows it. She should full well expect to be held accountable, and no post of hers will change that, no matter how much she wants to try and guilt the common man for trying to stand up for himself and his peers.

Crazy Kyrsten has no right to talk about Satan, of all the people she is probably very close to emblematic of the values that are antithetical to god.

There is literally nothing radical about HR1, unless you believe preserving the right to vote and be properly represented for all Americans and preventing bad faith actors from gaining reckless amounts of power is radical.

I didn't even notice what they were demanding the woman mourning the death of her intern abolish the filibuster to pass, nor do I care. My point was about the online troll's performative harassment of the Senator.

I think it has more to do with social media removing the filter most people would otherwise have. Idiots are now able to publicly say things from the comfort of their home that at one point only those in their immediate company would be forced to listen to.

And where are the crocodile tears from the Pearl clutchers over the millions of Americans she is hurting each day? Does one get a free pass from accountability to their constituents because of something that happened to an intern?
Sinema and her staffers must not be given any mercy or compassion, until they learn to show mercy and compassion for the American people and our sacred nation.

Why is everyone so upset about formalities, our families are struggling just to get by
,our votes are being stolen, and our country is f**king burning, and we are supposed to be kind to the person who is allowing it to happen because she wants to feel special and go on a power trip? Hard pass.

And if it were me who was dead. I would hope my legacy would at least be to pressure a powerful Senator into doing something good for once and getting a spine.

I think the issue is more against using the dead staffer/intern to push for policy purposes. Obviously that person Twitter user didn't know who he was, and he was very personal to Sinema so it got onto her.

Frankly, I don't blame her. It's not like Twitter randos are usually all that bright anyway. I'll shed no tears if their sense of self-worth is punctured and their feelings are actually hurt.
The mind of the average political Twitter rando is more dense than osmium.

Don't let this distract you from the fact that GeneralMacArthur falsely accused me of secretly plotting to dox him because I didn't like his Internet posts on an obscure political forum.

Alben Barkley and GeneralMacarthur Whinge About Progressives Part 698265387618367 feat. Ray Goldfield.

Funny how the two people who think this is actual news are the most virulently bigoted red avatar on the forum and Atlas's most prominent smear artist.

(I'm not counting Goldfield here - from my interactions with him it'd be out of character for him to excuse any sort of harassment against progressives, outright harass progressives on here, or do a transphobia)

Sinema is 100% right. These people should be ashamed of themselves.

I mean, yeah, it’s rude for someone to say that in response to her post. But her trying to clap back is major cringe. But also this doesn’t matter.

Trump’s use of social media was transformational, and will be the most lasting aspect of his legacy

This response could have been from her social media manager, FWIW.
