Extremists Eye Jan. 17 In Bid For Insurrection Violence | Talking Points Memo

I agree about the obsession. I don’t agree that she deserves a pass for anything because she admitted Biden won.

She’s not my senator and other than when I come across a story here I don’t think about her. I do object to the ongoing sniping about her because it’s part of how men treat women who go into politics. They have to be better at everything than men and still they don’t win much of the time. I also object to referring to Andrea Mitchell out of the blue or Mrs. Greenspan or any other woman in the public eye because it’s sport to do so and will get some number of "Like"s. Repubs did this this to HRC and so the worst person in the world was allowed to take office because he wasn’t the woman the criticism diminished.

Maybe it takes being a woman who’s experienced criticism from mean socially and in the workplace to understand it.

If the post of yours I replied to had ended there, I would not have replied, because I think your argument, just posted here, has merit. Sen. Collins deserves no credit for admitting Biden won. Again, that’s what I was responding to.

He got lost on his way to the Ted Nugent Farewell Tour gig.

I’m not “pounding” anyone. Collins gets her well deserved criticism for saying ridiculous, stupid shit like, “I think Trump learned his lesson” or, I thought the rioters were Iranians."

Give me a break! Maybe you shouldn’t defend idiots simply because they’re female.

Yes, of course, the dozen or so others along with her don’t deserve Honorable Mentions for acting like elected government officials should.

I went ahead and reported the most egregious ones like those. The comments for that channel are 95% QAnon. I know the channel was already demonetized a couple months ago. Hopefully YouTube goes ahead and bans it soon.

I think they are already shadow banning some by limiting the search results and recommendations,

Well, compared to items 1 through 4, everything else looks like a rounding error.

I mean, the geiger counters alone were a fortune all by themselves.

I call them UI’s or Useful Idiots.

You’re now more or less openly accusing others of being bigots for no reason. Me thinks you’re a bit to sensitive based on your own experiences. You’re almost arguing we should be more gentle BECAUSE she’s female. SURELY, that is NOT the case.

Yes, if the Rules of Engagement are satisfied. Armed insurgents breaching Police barracades are fair game.

Did I use the word bigot? No. I’m just hoping against all odds that men lay off tackling this particular woman for sport. Whatever. She won reelection

“She won re-election; therefore she is off limits, no matter how appalling and despicable her behavior”?

“Potentially violent”?

you don’t live in Maine, do you?
Where is she? Haven’t heard a word except for the statement put out with a buddy.
last I heard she thought Iran was attacking the capital.
what an opening for trump. she tried.
then she disappeared again

Collins is not a Nazi, not a Nazi sympathizer; that’s just an overexcited poster. But Collins is thoroughly lame: confirmed every right-wing Justice; acquitted Trump, claiming he “learned his lesson,” and a host of other despicable words and actions. Shame on Maine for returning her. (What’s the story there?) Will anyone be surprised if Collins votes to acquit again? Collins can be counted on for nothing.
