Janitors are being asked to stand up to gunmen because republican lawmakers won’t stand up to the gun industry.

@skykiss No, janitors are being a̶s̶k̶e̶d̶ expected to do this because parents keep electing Republicans.

Republican lawmakers don’t thrive in a vacuum. Even heavily gerrymandered districts have 50% women, and some 60% are parents.

No easy way to put this, a lot of our fellow citizens are uncaring scum.

@BackFromTheDud @staidwinnow @skykiss Republican voter suppression takes the form of making it harder to vote, kicking legitimate voters off the voter list so they can't vote, and threatening voters with prison if they try to exercise their rights.

Democratic voter suppression takes the form of kicking legitimate candidates & parties off the ballot so nobody can vote for them.

Both forms of suppression reduce voter turnout, by design. If you're wondering how to improve voter turnout, these are the two main issues to address

@staidwinnow vote suppression (aka the actual rigged elections) is the only reason republicans aren't a fringe party
