Analysis: "What went by 'McCarthyism' was not just one man or one party, it was the bipartisan consensus of our rulers."
"The new McCarthy Era, like the old, has seen brazenly illegal jailings and deportations, false accusations with no evidence, & the destruction of professional careers — this time magnified many times over."

How dare this megalomaniac narcissist and would be dictator seek comparison with Lincoln…
Maybe with the civil war that might start soon if he continues down this road?
Pretty funny how Republicans worship Lincoln as one of the party founders, while doing all they can to restore the goals of the Confederacy.

I love how Brits call parking lots "car parks" it makes it sound so fun and playful for the cars. Like there is this little oasis with roads and fun little activities for vehicles.
Parking lot is more honest, thought "urban space use failure" would be even better. (at least in dense cities)
