    Nothing makes trump supporters angrier than telling them the truth.

    definitionally they are fascists and bigots, but for at least the next 4 years fascists and bigots will be in charge, and so criticism of fascism or bigotry will come with risks.

  3. Stand up for what you *believe.*

    In the coming days, look for the loud mouths that might not have all the answers, but can still tell right from wrong. They’ll be willing to learn.

    I applaud this person taking action to demonstrate their beliefs, and I also applaud the beliefs themselves.

    Theyre braindead inbred nazi pig fuckers. I’m not resigning.

    So, we as a society are going to spend the next 4 years coddling a group of people who voted for a President based on vibes and hating a nebulous other. No, I’m not going to sanewash this and people are going to find out the hard way. Let a dozen eggs cost $20 bucks once he deports the majority of the agricultural workforce, let him and Netanyahu turn Palestine in a distant memory, let every minority group who switched votes for Trump find out what he truly thinks of them. I’m not cheering for the innocent people who are going to suffer, I’m probably going to end up in one of RFK’s “wellness farms” due to being a trans woman and therefore a “slave to Big Pharma”, but it took Poland years for them to realize that fascism sucks and vote out PiS. We need to learn the hard way, I suppose.

    It’s only been two weeks and people are already regretting their vote. It’s going to be a long four years.

    As if any of them will ever read a single word in an issue of Scientific American.

    Telling the truth should not be a stepdownworthy offense.

    I will not be making excuses or coddling Trump supporters. Fuck’em. They gave us hell the last 4 years

    If there’s any problem with the left this is it- Republicans are out there calling every gay person in existence pedophiles but the needle doesn’t move- An editor calls people who vote for a fascist fascist and they have to step down.

  10. Meanwhile, Scientific American presents article after article establishing that Trump supporters are fascists and bigoted. Scientifically speaking.

    Truth to power has consequences in a dictatorship. Ask Navalny.

    100% factual statement. Personally, I do pretty good financially, so I will be fine.. But I look forward to seeing the trumpfucks not being able to afford anything once his policies start taking their toll. Fascists, bigots, and the poorly educated.

    It just sucks that everyone else must suffer because of these insufferable twats.

    Rapist, fraudster, liar, fascist Trump gets to be president but a lefty scientist speaks truth and loses job. This timeline is cooked.

    She shouldn’t have.MAGA says terrible stuff all the time and proudly so. We need to fight back instead of apologize for the truth.

  15. Oh so MAGA is okay with insulting entire groups of people based on their race which is something that can’t be controlled but getting called out on it is offensive to them?

    I can’t stop being Latino.

    They can stop being racist.

    Who are the real snowflake?

  16. The left needs to stop resigning over things like this republicans certainly don’t. We have one side that tries to be civil and fair and one that uses every dirty trick it can think of. We will keep losing to the far right fascists and bigots if we keep trying to take the high road.

    Conservatives love whining and crying about free speech and cancel culture until someone that they don’t like starts talking.

  18. NewCoderNoob on

    Why did she step down? They are fascists and disgusting scum, call them out and stand up for science.

  19. sundogmooinpuppy on

    It is vile Scientific American didn’t stand behind her for speaking the truth.

  20. BillionYrOldCarbon on

    Trump and Republicans call people names and attack them and don’t care, ignore subpoenas and the law, and nothing happens to them. Time for the rest of us to enjoy that equality and stop subverting ourselves.

  21. Chunk_Cheese on

    Shouldn’t have stepped down. A maga republican wouldn’t have, had they criticized dems. Dems gotta quit taking the high road.

  22. WaffleBlues on

    Stop stepping down, and stop apologizing.  MAGA never backs down, democrats and the sane must do the same.
