Free speech does not mean there may not be consequences. Go into your boss's office and tell him or her how really ugly and stupid they are and explain that whole free speech thing while you are clearing out your desk. I have certain criteria for blocking people. Trumpers, homophobes, male bashing, female bashing, and gun nuts will get one blocked pronto. I have been listening to these folks for decades. They don't change and l don't need to hear it anymore. I don't mind being blocked and sometimes enjoy it. It also cuts way down on the number of alerts l wake up to everyday. It went down from over 70 to about 20 or less that l have to wade through in the morning. The block feature is one of my favorite features on this site.

Seeing this on FB tonight made me think about what I really want to know about people.

I am a Progressive, but l know that whatever changes come will depend on the Congress whether it is Biden or Bernie. My fellow Progressives seem to think Bernie has some magic wand and was going to change the world and nothing could be farther from the truth. It is all about the Congress. That is the way it works. Besides Bernie being a member of niether party would always have a rough go. Independent might play well in a small state like Vermont. But on a national level, not so much. Biden will be fine.

What few Progressives, and l am one, who choose not to vote or vote for some write in candidate or third party candidate, the old "watch this, fuck me" vote will be outnumbered by the moderate Republicans, the fired up minority vote, and the plain old sick and tired of Trump voters who did not vote in 2016 will more than make up for those Progressives acting childish.
