One big problem with the "Bash the Fash" argument is that right now the Trumpers are going to be looking for reasons to excuse a crackdown -- reichstag fire etc. You can make the counterargument that they'll do that anyway, and hell, James O'Keefe was documented and caught planning to incite violence at the inauguration: but let's not give them what they want.

Personally I see the next few years as necessitating a fabian strategy: deter, delay, distract, defend. We have very little power right now and anything we do is going to be met with horrific reprisals -- we've already seen proposals to literally make it legal to run over and murder protestors who happen to be blocking roads, for example.

Cold-cocking Richard Spencer is cathartic but long term they're gonna catch the guy who did it and his life is going to be ruined by an assault charge and in the end he'll owe Spenser money (just like the Fred Phelps church was supported by assault lawsuits).

my trump voting grandparents were happy that obamacare is going away until i pointed out that my cousin will lose access to his parents' insurance, something they thought was part of ACA instead

e: they also didn't know preexisting condition coverage was part of obamacare, or the insurance subsidies. apparently they believed that obama created the ACA and also this mysterious other law which mandated high premiums for no reason

if only the democrat party spent any effort at all finding out that people were misinformed, and correcting it, instead of looking at obamacare's popularity ratings and shrugging because they were loving terrified of fox news calling them liberal if they spoke up about it

pike county has one of the highest proportions of millionaires in america due to people selling land rights during the 70s coal boom (granted, those people were almost certainly not marching today)

the buildings in frame, transplanted to la, scream "i'm 30 to 40 years old and should have been knocked down for new development long ago"

it really demonstrates how regional tastes and mindsets differ, here in earthquake country anything with brick facades let's you know that it's a building with an owner to cheap to care that everything is going to shake apart when the big one hits

well naturally the money down there all goes into peoples' McMansions on the outskirts of town or in Belfry, not public buildings or the historic downtown

This being a parting shot, I'm expecting a probation, my first in more than a year, any time now. :wave:
