The tee shirts were being sold on Etsy, yes, Etsy, our beloved Etsy. When I messaged one of the tee shirt shops to be ashamed of themselves, they reported me to Etsy. Etsy sent me an email telling me to stop or they would close my account. As a long time customer, until now, I saved them the trouble and deleted my account, never to go back. Sometimes you just have to do the right thing, Etsy failed.

I will repeat myself

I have led people in the past

You know nothing about my activist history or you would not even make a statement like that.

I am actually known to many.

My first reply to you went way over your head

Destroying a delicate endangered ecosystem and committing human-rights atrocities in one fell swoop! You've got to admire their efficiency.

I'm not religious but it would be nice if the party of jesus were a little more in touch with the teachings of jesus. I feel like the only thing they've taken from the Bible is protect every fetus (which isn't even in the Bible).

As if xian doctrine didn't absolutely sanction this from the get-go.

This is the general behavior of xianity writ large over the last two millenia.

Remember when the so called "moderate" Democrats would scold anybody who referred to the MAGAts as Nazis for being hyperbolic?

I hope the first gator meal is an ICE agent or guard. I don't think they have any political preferences when they are hangry and the inner dinner bell is ringing.

Minor correction needed: author has mixed up use of brackets in this sentence

"DeSantis has renewed this order every few months and used it to approve the building of Alligator Alcatraz (we swear, we cannot find an official name for it]."

Well that's sure a surprise! Lucky for her she's not a Democrat so there's no consequences.

I guess that'll help her replace stuff after her purse got stolen under the nose of her and her crack security detail!

As much as I love dark humor, it doesn't contain cruelty. GOP humor is not dark, it's macabre. At least we don't have to look for red flags, just see who's wearing the brand of, ICE and alligator Alcatraz things most surely made in Asia.

Wait.

So there is such a crisis in Florida of too many immigrants that they have to build a facility where thousands more will be flown into the state?

So, will there be fences to keep the trapped in? If so why? Will there be fences to keep the pythons and gaters out? Will there be guards? Why? What will guards guard?

Non of this makes sense. Someone, HELP!

It's about creating a convenient pile of people for fascists to dehumanize while they consolidate absolute totalitarian power.

I give you now Ron-Dee-San-Tiss

A little man who’s full of piss.

He built hisself a prison camp

In the Glades, all hot and damp.

One day he stepped inside that prison wall

And his lifted shoes caused him to fall.

He had, a guard informed us later,

Been snapped up by an angry gator.

The liberals could not but smile:

“He’ll be inside a good long while.”
