2025 GOP in a nutshell.

Even Musk sees this is a recipe for disaster.

I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment:

Selfishness: I’m taking care of me and mine, the rest of you can pound sand;

Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else

The statement 'fair, unfortunately' by @peterevoss is a brief agreement with a previous comment in a conversation about political issues, specifically related to the GOP and a political figure's actions. The conversation involves criticism of political behavior and decisions, which are public issues. The tone is resigned and somewhat critical, indicating agreement with the sentiment that the situation is unfortunate.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not cause harm directly, but it does not actively strive to prevent harm either. It is neutral in this regard.
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion. It simply agrees with a negative sentiment without offering further insight or constructive dialogue. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments, but it also does not contribute to constructive criticism or dialogue. It is a passive agreement with a critical stance.
