Never cared about corruption.
Or freedom of speech.
Or preventing terrorism.
Never actually even wanted to reduce abortions.
It was only ever about dominance.

They think compromise is weakness.
They think honesty is for saps.
They think trust is for fools.
They use our desire for them as tools for domination.
They've proved it.
Trust is good, but trust is earned.
We'd be foolish to trust those who only use trust as a tool.

They think science is a scam
They think evidence is a sham
They put their faith in propaganda and conspiracy
And vote for damned liars
They believe lies, but not b/c they truly believe them
Rather b/c it's a way to establish dominance
To prove only they can control their reality

Believing a lie is preferable to believing a truth, if what you want is to dominate
A person who lives according to a truth you've told may have been persuaded by truth, not you
To force a person to live according to your lie means you have dominated them
So they believe lies

And persuasion is good. A dialogue of persuasion indicates good faith, which we desire.
And so we desire to persuade.
And they use that desire as a tool to dominate.
It is a poor use of your time to persuade somebody who has made themselves deliberately unpersuadable.

We're dealing with fascists.
We didn't kill trust, but it's dead
We didn't create the divide, but we mustn't bridge it
Persuade who you can, but watch for those who have made themselves unpersuadable
Withdraw trust from those who would use it as a tool
Tell the truth
Fight

They believe nothing. Nothing at all, but dominance.
They believed in democracy as long as democracy helped them maintain dominance. Now that it won't, they work to demolish it. https://twitter.com/RandPaul/status/1187726009237417984?s=20

They never cared about law.
They don't care about truth.
To defend one of their own in the commission of a grave crime, they'll falsely accuse another of the same crime. They'll invent it out of wholecloth.

He was broken long ago.
Bill Barr has never believed in law or justice at all, except as tools to enforce dominance.
That's why he was chosen by fascists to run the Justice Department. https://twitter.com/JWVerret/status/1188210175330734081?s=20

They never cared about the troops. They never cared about the uniform, or sacrifice, or honor, or duty.
The veneration of military service was as shallow as their souls. It was only ever a tool.

The point for Trump is the same as for all elected Republicans and MAGA voters. The point is “I’m doing it b/c I can.” The point is “I don’t even have to pretend to care about the law.”
The point is domination. The point is impunity.
The point is facism. https://twitter.com/juliaioffe/status/1229847128270364679?s=21 https://twitter.com/juliaioffe/status/1229847128270364679

They never cared about "states' rights."
They never cared about small government.
They never cared about independence.
Or freedom.
Or liberty.
All they ever cared about is dominance.
They want to give all the responsibility and duty, and take all the power.

Every single election going forward has to be absolutely permanently devastating to the Republican Party, until they’re gone.
The lesson has to be “when you become what the GOP has become, it is the end of you as a political power.”
