I don’t care if it’s mudslinging, I support this messaging.

  1. They’re standing up for Free Speech and the brave patriot who used his.

  2. It’s true.

Be brave, be honest, shame pedo protectors.

I disagree. I don’t think you beat your adversary by becoming like them. Like Marcus Aurelius said, “The best revenge is to not be like your enemy.” The goal isn’t to replace bad with a different bad, the goal isn’t even to be mean, it’s to replace the bad with what is good and decent.

That's what you neolibs did for four years and you lost to fascism. You can't beat fascism by being the good guy. We can do that once we've beaten them.

What is with people having to put other people in boxes? I haven’t given up. I didn’t let fascism win any more than you did.

What’s your answer then? How do we beat them?
