Quote of the Day
I am not a liberal snowflake. My feelings aren't fragile, my heart isn't bleeding. I am a badass believer in human rights. My toughness is tenderness. My strength is in the service of others. There is nothing more fierce than formidable, unconditional love. There is not a thing more courageous than compassion. But if my belief in equity, empathy, goodness, and love indeed makes me or people like me snowflakes, then you should know—WINTER IS COMING." ~ Eminem

- Don't use his name, EVER (45 wll do).
- Remember this is a regime and he's not acting alone.
- Do not argue with those who support him. It doesn't work.
- Focus on his POLICIES, not his orangeness or his mental state.
- Keep your message positive. They want the country to be angry and fearful because this is the soil from which their darkest policies will grow.
- No more helpless/hopeless talk.
- Support artists and the arts.
- Be careful not to spread fake news. Check it before you post it.
- Take care of yourselves, and most importantly…
- Resist!

When you post or talk about him, don't assign his actions to him; assign them to "The Republican Administration," or "The Republicans." This will have several effects: the Republican legislators will either have to take responsibility for their association with him, or stand up for what some of them don't like. He will not get the attention he craves.
