Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass. Most people are good.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Solid evidence of Trump’s dictatorship intent

Trump used to be a little more cautious about signaling his intention to be a dictator-kleptocrat. But now he is either getting sloppy about stating his dictator intentions in public, or maybe he just doesn’t care. 

A Daily Beast article quotes Trump saying that he does not want his own MAGA judges to be independent from himself. He wants them to do what he wants, nothing else. That is true dictatorship intent.

“Republicans, judges, and justices. They always want to show that they’re independent. ‘I don’t care if Trump appointed me, I don’t care, if it doesn’t make any difference to me. I’m voting against him! Cause they want to show their independence, you know, stupid people. ..... I can’t get a ballroom approved. It’s pretty amazing, right? If I was a king, we’d be doing a lot more. I’m doing a lot, but I could be doing a lot more if I was a king.
