This is just opinion, so take what you will out of it.
I’ve heard so many on the right and the mythological “center” say something along the lines of, “Bernie Sanders supporters are just angry white guys” or “Hillary Clinton is just an angry generic-sexist-mysoginistic-term” OR “Democrats are just an angry group of voters.” This is said in a derogatory way, as if our anger isn’t justified.
Well goddamnit I AM angry. I’m furious at what you’ve done to our country. I refuse to take your bullshit sitting down.
You know what makes me angry?
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Rick Snyder, knowingly poisons an entire city of American Citizens (surprised that they’re Black?)
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Scott Walker, strips away the rights of the workers in his state that made it so successful.
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Bruce Rauner, cuts multi-millions of dollars from state social services in the guise of balancing the budget, while giving millions to his investor buddies.
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Paul LePage, compares the ACA to “the new Gestapo”. The new, fucking, Gestapo. Cause giving health care to people is like genocide of the Jews…
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Sam Brownback, makes his state broke, but instead decides that fighting abortion providers is more important. “Fuck women” — Sam Brownback
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Rick Scott, steals millions from Medicare in his former life, gets a slap on the wrist, and then buys his own election with over $70 million of his own money.
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Mike Pence, decides he wants to try and make discrimination in his state legal, because, you know, the gays. Fuck this guy.
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Chris Christie, vetoes farm animal rights bills because, you know, Iowa. “Fuck animals.” — Christ Christie
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Nikki Haley, had to see a church massacre in her state before she would take a stand against the Confederate Flag. I’m sorry, I should have written “stand”.
I get angry when a Republican Governor, Greg Abbott, decided to cut developmental health services to 60,000 Texas Children. Because, you know, money-budget-blah-blah bullshit. “Fuck Children” — Greg Abbott.
God…. this list goes on and on and on.
I just wrote about these Governors because of what is happening in Flint. We haven’t talked about Senators, Congressmen and women, Presidential candidates, former presidents, and other assholes who are generally un-American, un-Democratic, traitors to this country and its citizens. They are only loyal to their checkbooks and bank accounts.
Scum, all of them.
Watching and hearing what is happening to the people of Flint, MI is so infuriating. How can this happen to them? How can a man made disaster like this happen in “the world’s greatest country”? How can this happen in a democracy? I just don’t understand.
But I do get angry when I think about it. And I know who is responsible for it, in places like Flint, MI and everywhere else around the country.
So of course I’m fucking angry. I will NEVER vote for a Republican. EVER.
I will work for and vote for the party that actually cares about me. The Democratic party that cares about my brothers and sisters who are constantly denied a voice or a place in this country.
*whooooooooo*
Ok, I’m good now (until next time….)
