You know what really grinds my gears: Watching 95 supposedly progressive Democrats shit themselves so hard they voted to canonize a fascist fuck who would've cheerfully watched them burn.
When Cowardice Becomes Policy
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke
The stench of fear-sweat must have been overwhelming in that Democratic caucus meeting. Picture it: nearly a hundred grown-ass adults, elected to stand for something, collectively pissing themselves at the thought of what Mike JesusPersonalCocksucker and his fascist brigade might tweet about them. The resolution honoring Charlie Kirk—a man who spent his life spewing hate like a prolapsed ass pouring out shit all over the place (Donald Style)—passed with 95 Democratic votes. Ninety-fucking-five. That's not just capitulation; that's a full-throated suckers endorsement of cowardice as political strategy.
The bitter taste of this betrayal lingers like spoiled milk mixed with shame. You can practically hear the rationalization hamster wheels spinning in their heads: "We need to condemn political violence." Sure, condemn violence shitheads. Let us actually see you fucking do it this time? Will you please? Or will it just be “Thank you Sir May I have another?” But you know what you don't need to do? Tongue-bath the legacy of a bigot who would've celebrated if half your caucus got strung up. The political calculus here is so fucked it makes a three-legged dog's walk look graceful. These spineless fucks think appeasing fascists will somehow protect them from fascist violence. History called—it's laughing its ass off at your stupidity.
The Democrats who voted for this resolution essentially signed a confession that reads: "We're so fucking terrified of Donald ShitEater and his mouth-breathing militia that we'll betray every principle we claim to hold." They've handed the GOP a golden fucking ticket that says, "Threaten us with violence, and we'll give you whatever you want." The sound of democratic backbones snapping echoes through the Capitol like bubble wrap at a stress-relief convention. Every minority group Kirk attacked—LGBTQ+ folks, Black Americans, Jews—just watched their supposed allies throw them under the bus because some hillbilly fascists might get upset. The air tastes like betrayal seasoned with cowardice.
The Psychology of Surrender
"The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek." - Carl Jung
Let's dissect the diseased psychology behind this capitulation. These Democrats are operating from a place of pure, unadulterated terror—the kind that makes your asshole pucker so tight you could turn coal into diamonds. They've internalized the abuser's logic: if we're really, really good, maybe daddy won't hit us. The psychological term for this is "learned helplessness," though in this case, it's more like "enthusiastic helplessness." They're not just accepting their victimization; they're speed-running toward it with open arms and lubricated assholes.
The sensory experience of watching this unfold is like being force-fed a shit sandwich while someone tells you it's gourmet cuisine. You can smell the desperation wafting off these politicians like cheap cologne at a divorced dad's meetup. Rep. Becca Balint, a lesbian who voted yes, called it "a very painful pill to swallow." No, Becca, a painful pill is aspirin on an empty stomach. This is swallowing a cactus wrapped in barbed wire while Mike BibleFucker holds a gun to your head and you thank him for the privilege.
"The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made." - Groucho Marx
The trauma response on display here would make Freud rise from his grave just to take notes. These Democrats have become so psychologically broken by Trumpty MouthAnus's reign of terror that they're preemptively surrendering to avoid confrontation. It's Stockholm Syndrome with a legislative voting record. The mental gymnastics required to justify this vote could win Olympic gold in the "Bending Over Backwards to Accommodate Fascists" event. They've literally voted to honor a man who thought the Civil Rights Act was a mistake, and they're calling it unity. That's like calling a gang rape a group hug—technically involves multiple people coming together, but fuck me if that's not missing the entire goddamn point.
The Philosophy of Fucking Failure
"The unexamined life is not worth living." - Socrates
Philosophically speaking, what we're witnessing is the complete abandonment of moral absolutism in favor of the most craven form of relativism imaginable. These Democrats have decided that their personal safety (which, let's be fucking clear, was never actually threatened) matters more than the principles they swore to uphold. Kant is rolling in his grave so fast we could hook him up to a generator and solve the energy crisis. The categorical imperative—act only according to maxims you could will to be universal laws—just got skull-fucked into oblivion.
The existential question here cuts deeper than a suicidal emo kid's playlist: What the fuck is the point of having power if you're too chickenshit to use it? Sartre talked about bad faith—lying to yourself to avoid the anxiety of freedom and responsibility. These Democrats aren't just in bad faith; they're in terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad faith. They've chosen to pretend they had no choice, when in reality, they're just too fucking scared to make the right one. The absurdity would make Camus weep—if he wasn't too busy laughing at the cosmic joke of Democrats with less spine than a fucking jellyfish.
"Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does." - Jean-Paul Sartre
The philosophical implications ripple outward like shit-waves in a septic tank. By voting to honor Kirk, these Democrats have essentially endorsed the idea that violent intimidation works. They've philosophically capitulated to might-makes-right fascism while pretending they're taking the high road. It's like watching someone claim they're a pacifist while actively loading bullets for their bully. The moral framework they're operating under is so fucked it makes moral relativism look like the Ten Commandments. They've created a new philosophical school: Cowardicus Democraticus Cockius Suckulous Caligulumpus—the belief that principles are nice until someone might tweet mean things about you.
"The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." - David Hume
The Aftermath of Ass-Licking Anilingus
Jamie Raskin, usually one of the smarter ones, said they should "overlook whatever surplus verbiage is contained in this resolution." Surplus verbiage? Jamie, they called a fascist fuck a "courageous American patriot." That's not surplus; that's the whole fucking point. It's like saying we should overlook the "surplus bullets" in a mass shooting and focus on the shooter's good penmanship on the manifesto. The resolution might as well have been written in Kirk's jizz for how thoroughly it fellates his memory.
Meanwhile, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez—one of the few with functioning vertebrae—spelled out exactly who Kirk was: a racist, antisemitic piece of shit who celebrated political violence when it suited him. But here's the thing: AOC gets it. She understands that you can condemn violence without tongue-fucking the corpse of a bigot. The fact that only 58 Democrats figured this out is more depressing than Elon MicroTool's penis measurements.
"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King Jr.
The long-term damage of this capitulation can't be overstated. Every time Democrats cave to fascist intimidation, they're teaching the fascists that intimidation works. It's like giving a toddler candy every time they throw a tantrum—except the toddler has an AR-15 and a Twitter account. They've set a precedent that will fuck them harder than Donny Dingleberry fucks democracy. The next time the GOP wants something, all they have to do is vaguely threaten violence, and watch the Democrats fold faster than Superman on laundry day.
The sensory assault of this betrayal is overwhelming. You can taste the bitterness of abandoned principles, smell the acrid stench of political cowardice, hear the sound of democratic spines snapping like twigs, see the tears of every marginalized group Kirk attacked, and feel the cold grip of fascism tightening around democracy's throat. This isn't just bad politics; it's political malpractice with a side of moral bankruptcy.
The Democrats who voted for this resolution have proven they're not the resistance; they're the assistance. They're not fighting fascism; they're facilitating it with a smile and a "yes, sir, may I have another?" The revolution won't be televised because the Democrats will be too busy voting to honor the counter-revolutionaries. This is what happens when you mistake cowardice for pragmatism and capitulation for compromise. You end up honoring your enemies while betraying your friends, all because you're too fucking scared to stand for something.
The bitter truth is this: If you won't stand up to fascists when they're dead, you sure as fuck won't stand up to them when they're alive. These 95 Democrats just announced to the world that they're ready to collaborate with whatever comes next. They've shown that their spines are made of overcooked spaghetti and their principles are written in disappearing ink. The resistance is dead, and it voted for its own funeral.

95 Democrats voted for a martyrdom. Unfkkkng believable.
I was beyond appalled when I first heard this. The most disturbing aspect of this was realizing that these fools have no interest in helping or supporting the folks that put trust in them to do the right thing! Just wtf would possess any one of them to believe that the racist horde would consider exempting them from ridicule or harm?!! To make matters worse, the very same day I received a text message from Hakeem Jeffries asking for a donation for some bullshit issue and how hard he was fighting for folks like me! Once I saw his name I never finished reading the message. He can fuck all the way off as well as the rest of his colleagues that voted for this crap! In my wildest rationale I never would have considered honoring a racist mf! I wish no harm toward anyone, even those that I have no interest in their ideology, but the harm our own supposed leaders have done is shameful!
