They were trying to get me to vote for this Dem running for a state seat, guy’s a chief of staff for some local establishment democrat, usual machine operation.

I explain I’m sick of the democrats, and the volunteer’s response? “Well candidate such and such is actually much more moderate than people make him out to be.” I wryly pointed out that he just said that to a socialist, and at that point I think he realized he couldn’t do anything to pitch his candidate at that point.

(cw: immolation, gore)

if someone comes to my door I am going to get my tablet and show them the video of Shaaban Al-Dalou burning alive. if they haven't left then I will play the video of the father carrying his nearly-decapitated child and you can see the inside of the child's skull. repeat with Hind Rajab's last call, and additional entries from the library of atrocities until they leave.
