You know, there was a time I watched Benjamin Dixon… Then he stated something about getting rid of Trump under any premise. As much as Trump makes my sensibilities feel like they want to scream, laugh, and cry at the same time, I cannot support him being removed for illegitimate reasons. The opposition would use the same tactics to remove someone we favored. So, Dixon lost me as a subscriber there. Then to hear there was some vitriol reaction to an article that I agree with… Whatever. If MSM were doing their job, there would be no need for collaboration or any need for singular journalists to step up and do their jobs for them.

As a black man, I could work with a redneck who believes that we shouldn’t be fighting countless wars, wants to save the waterways that he fishes in from pipelines and chemical pollution, and despises the evil points of corporate America. We can fight against those bigger threats and you are saying you are more concerned in averting a march to mass extinction of human-kind. With the belief that those are the odds we are up against, then why the heck wouldn’t you align with whoever wants to fight against those things? If anything, let them tell you that they don’t believe those are the odds that we’re up against in order to have a stronger position. They came with some weak sauce. Keep fighting with your keyboard as your weapon of choice.
