The podcast is doing really well and I am both surprised and extremely grateful so many of you are willing to listen to me rant and rave!
In order to give myself a little more prep time (and give you a better show), I am putting the poll up a few days earlier. So let’s get to it!
Here are your choices for next week’s Ogre Opinion!
Why do we coddle right-wing terrorists?: America loves to send the cops in to break the skulls of protesting liberals but would rather walk on rusty nails barefoot before even scolding violent right-wingers. Why is that?
What happens if we win?: We spend so much time doomcasting, we haven’t stopped to consider what happens if Republicans completely shit the bed in November. Hint: It might be glorious.
How dangerous is the anti-vax movement?: In just a few short years, anti-vaxxers went from a fringe movement for tinfoil hat nuts and bored rich white people to a mob of lunatics ready to bring back the black Plague. How bad is this going to get?
Topics that don’t make the cut may end up being offered again in the future or fade away forever. It depends on the timeliness of said topic.
As always, it would be deeply appreciated if you became a supporting subscriber. I put a lot of work into this newsletter (and now podcast) and I’d like to keep bringing it to you as long as the Republican Party is a plague on the land.
While presently the least favored topic, I find vaccine deniers to be one of the greatest threats we may face. Project 2025 has among its many horrifying goals the plan to completely do away with vaccine mandates for publicly funded schools. I’m old enough that I went to school with kids paralyzed by polio, and that isn’t even considering the death toll and long term health impacts of Covid. I think to the extent possible anyone who tries to pass such laws needs to be tested for current vaccines to the extent possible to show all the hypocrites. For all his rhetoric, Trump got the Covid vaccine and kept quiet about it, although it was reported at the time.
Given I've been after RW terrorists all week between my Notes and actual articles...
And I did actually listen to the first two, you magnetic bastard.
