No! Not this again!! This does NOT help anyone - ever!!!

No! Not this again!! This does NOT help anyone - ever!!! 

“Suspect held after Trump ‘attempted assassination’ at Florida golf course | Donald Trump | The Guardian”   https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/15/trump-safe-gunshots-golf-course       

“Second Trump assassination attempt highlights ‘dangerous times’ for US”   https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/16/second-trump-assassination-attempt-analysis   “Questions will be raised about Trump’s exposure to attack, but Secret Service is also being commended for stopping it”      

“‘My father is running out of lives’: family and leaders shocked by Trump shooting”   https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/15/donald-trump-shooting-reaction   “Former president was unhurt in apparent assassination attempt at golf course in Florida   ...   Family and political figures from both ends of the political spectrum expressed shock as details emerged of an apparent attempted assassination attempt of Donald Trump at his Florida golf course”     

Media investigations SUGGEST this may have been attempted by someone who felt they could help Ukraine this way. 

They couldn’t, and, in fact, all they have done is contribute to:   

  • a fascist overthrow of democracy in the USA (the violence if this attempt had been successful would be horrendous, but, as it is, this boosts Trump’s chances of being elected)
  • a culture of violence (including, but not limited to, political - this person has, in my opinion, just contributed to the next school shooting in the USA); and 
  • greater risks for Ukraine.

People ... don’t do this sort of amathiac rubbish! When you do, you drag yourself and whatever movement you are part of/goal you are seeking DOWN below the level of those you are opposed to, down to the level of fascism, fear, and anything BUT democracy, debate and persuasion (as supported by these former Reagan staffers), and trying to be the BEST we all can be, individually and as a whole!

Note that, as with my main blog [see here], I am cutting back on aspects of my posts.

Remember: we need to be more human being rather than human doing, and all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering”.
