Seeing a lot of discussion about how "we need an alternative to the GOP for rational conservatives to join/have a legitimate opposition/restore the balance/whatever." OK, maybe. But you know whose job that is? Not the Dems. Not the Left. Not Progressives. It's 'Conservatives'.1/5
Y'all talk about personal accountability, the rule of law, principled leadership. You blame everyone else's "culture" for systemic social and economic problems. You say "facts don't care about your feelings," but cry like babies when confronted w evidence of systemic racism 2/5
If you're a Republican, you built this. And if you think there should be an alternative, if it's "not your party anymore," then do what you've told everyone else to do for decades: pull yourself up by your bootstraps, take personal responsibility, and do the fucking work. 3/5
You think we need a "reasonable alternative?" Then build it. Kick the Nazis & their enablers out. Stop saying "this isn't my party." It IS your party. You helped build this. You rode the tiger & now it's riding you. Consequences, baby. Performative never-trumpism isn't enough 4/5
Unless and until you show *real* remorse, and acknowledge the consequences of your racist, misogynistic, and militaristic cosplay, you aren't doing shit. You say your allegiance is to country over party? Show us. It's not anyone else's job to build an off-ramp for you. /end
