Political Discourse

Let me be unequivocally clear: politicians, on both sides, need to shut the fuck up.

Every fucking post I see from every Republican or Democrat is calling this "political violence".

There is no suspect in custody.
There is ZERO evidence to support such a statement.

It is irresponsible and dangerous to keep feeding this narrative into the airwaves. All it will do is foment more violence against marginalized people that are already under attack. It will foment violence against Democrats. Not just politicians but us normal people out here in the world.

STOP. PLEASE. JUST STOP.
