My response to latest N-Word troll callers to Politics Done Right removes their power.

When will my trolls realize that racial slurs mean absolutely nothing when used on me? I want folks to remove the power from others to attempt to use words to disrupt dialogue that moves things forward. If you agree with me let's make a difference.

I don’t think those callers are primarily trying to upset you. I think they are imagining the approval of an imaginary audience whose members are slapping one another on the back and saying “He sure showed him! He’s my kind of man!”

45 has climbed to the top of that pile of pathetic people and his ability to demean others to actual cheers is something to aspire to, a greatness to be achieved. Unfortunately some of them actually try to achieve that kind of imagined greatness by picking up a phone. Or a gun.

Back before computers Bart Simpson type phone pranks were the thing. Now people can see your work on social media and give you cheers and compliments
