44. There is nothing in that post I don't take issue with.

The idea behind it is since corporations like one part of one party, and a different part of another, we should combine the parts THEY like to satisfy THEM. The very thought of that sickens me.

Beside the fact that idea is just incorrect, what corporations like, and beside the fact I don't have a fuck to give about pleasing corporations and their misogyny, racism and bigotry, we're ALL supposedly fighting against the Citizens United decision. So anything after the first paragraph of that post is moot. And the first paragraph is abhorrent.

Yes, it's pretty unbelievable that anyone here agrees with that. But it's not surprising though certainly disappointing.

You just can't allow yourself to become so upset about it. Level heads make more headway.
