"Great Read" Says Twitter's CEO About Article Advocating Eradication of the Right

Great read? Great read?!?

Great read. That’s the CEO of Twitter. You know, the dude deciding who American gets to hear from and who America doesn’t.

He’s tweeting this:

Which is an article that says this:

Now the entire Republican Party, and the entire conservative movement that has controlled it for the past four decades, is fully positioned for the final takedown that will cast them out for a long period of time in the political wilderness. They deserve it.

And is titled this:

You don’t want to have to read it, so let me sum it up: Republicans are very evil. Too evil to tolerate. They need to be shut out of government, and all political issues. Their opinions and ideas, and those of the people who vote for them, must be banished from all thought and action. Conservatism must be eradicated in all forms so we can have a green energy utopia where no one has gender or pronouns or guns and there’s a chicken in every pot, alive and well and taking a bath because everyone is a super woke vegan who hates the whites.

Exaggerating? You wish.

Here are some samples – mere samples – for the summary I gave you above. But trust me, you’re better off sticking with what I wrote and skipping past these blockquotes.

You were warned.

Trump could have come into office with a genuinely new agenda that could have helped working people. Instead, he has spent the past year becoming a caricature of all things conservative — and in the meantime has alienated most of America and certainly all the growing political constituencies of the 21st century. He is turning the Republican brand toxic for millennials, women, Latinos, people of color, college-educated people, urban centers, the tech industry, and the economic powerhouses of the coasts, to name a few.

Now the entire Republican Party, and the entire conservative movement that has controlled it for the past four decades, is fully positioned for the final takedown that will cast them out for a long period of time in the political wilderness. They deserve it.

Let’s just say what needs to be said: The Republican Party over the past 40 years has maneuvered itself into a position where they are the bad guys on the wrong side of history. For a long time, they have been able to hide this fact through a sophisticated series of veils, invoking cultural voodoo that fools a large enough number of Americans to stay in the game. However, Donald Trump has laid waste to that sophistication and has given America and the world the raw version of what current conservative politics is all about.

The Republican Party is all about rule by and for billionaires at the expense of working people. Trump is literally the incarnation of what the party stands for: shaping laws for the good of billionaires and the 1 percent. His cabinet is stuffed with them.

The Republican Party is the party of climate change denial. Trump is the denier-in-chief, but there are 180 climate science deniers in the current Congress (142 in the House and 38 in the Senate), and none of them are Democrats. More than 59 percent of Republicans in the House and 73 percent of Republicans in the Senate deny the scientific consensus that climate change is happening, that human activity is the main cause, and that it is a serious threat. Another way to say it is that the Republican Party is in the pocket of the oil and carbon energy industry. Trump just cut through the crap and named Exxon’s CEO as our secretary of state to unravel the United Nations climate accords. No beating around that bush for the sake of appearances — Trump burned the bush down.

The Republican Party for the past 40 years has mastered using dog whistles to gin up racial divides to get their white voters to the polls. Trump just disposes of niceties and flatly encourages white nationalists, bans Muslims, walls off Mexicans, and calls out “shithole” countries.

The article is like 750,000 words, so this is just a SMALL sample, but I reckon you get the point.

This argument for one party rule, with overt references to an actual civil war while claiming to be only about a theoretical or non-physical one, is awful popular right now among leftists. You know, the ones who put Democracy on all the signs they use to protest in favor of government’s fist turning a little more iron.

Democrats, who even when out of the political majority can still get Laura Ingraham on the verge of fired and Kevin Williamson from even getting hired, who while out of power in D.C. still decide how bathrooms work in your state and whether or not you’re allowed to use a particular word, who control the mainstream media so entirely and so thoroughly that you never hear a word from any survivor of a mass shooting who dares even praise the guns that saved them (because guns always do) much less the idea of the right to bear arms … THOSE Democrats don’t have ENOUGH power, says this guy who Twitter’s CEO thinks is the bees knees.

Social media matters, y’all. You can be old and out of it and pretend it doesn’t and turn your nose up at it, but it was instrumental in electing Trump and you know it. And the Democrats know it too, that’s why they are always ranting about Russian “bots”. And Twitter is the most immediate way to communicate in social media. It is, in fact, the platform our President has chosen to be his direct line to the people.

For a lot of bloggers and journalists and right wing activists, it’s the same. A direct line of communication. Considering conservatives are shut out of the mainstream press about 99 percent of the time, it’s one of the ONLY lines of communication to the public.

And the guy who runs it thinks that cutting Republican values out of society by force if necessary is a pretty neato idea. And a great read.

That ain’t great at all, folks.
