Joy Reid doesn’t remember writing those blog posts.
She. Doesn’t. Remember. Writing. Them.
But she does remember other things. Things MANY progressives have said. The difference is that she has cut her heart out to apologize for them.
That isn’t enough for some people.
Detractors still want her to dance for them. To cut her arm off. To bleed for them.
And even if she did all of that, it still wouldn’t be enough.
Over things she doesn’t remember writing...a decade ago.
She can’t win.
Just like Hillary Clinton couldn’t win.
Didn’t matter how much Clinton tried to atone. Didn’t matter how much she acknowledged and apologized. She was never going to be allowed to move on.
What is happening to Joy makes me sick.
And it is the same fucking people behind it.
Nothing has changed from 2016. No lessons have been learned. Including here on DKos.
I’m disgusted and we are fucked.
Meanwhile, a freaking Rapture-invoking end-timer who thinks LGTBQ people are a sin has just been appointed Sec of State. Our Vice President wants LGTBQers tortured. Our Sec of Education does not believe in protecting LGTBQ students. Our Attorney General just freaking ended the DOJ’s civil rights work.
But. Yeah. Let’s persecute Joy Reid. She’s only one of the leading voices calling out what is happening with our current government. Silencing her will definitely make things ALL better. We shall overcome once Joy Reid is silenced.
p.s. Bite me Greenwald, you sick POS.
