If you read no other tweets or threads on Twitter today, read THIS ONE.
Heather’s thread takes each and every Leftist talking point you’ve seen in both traditional and social media APART and she does it with facts and snark. So we totally love it, and you will too unless you’re a Leftist, but it’s not like a bunch of Leftists are reading us anyway, unless you count Ron Perlman and Tom Arnold …
Enjoy:
A tax cut is not a handout. It is not money taken from the poor and given to the rich.

Boom.
The Constitution does not grant you rights. It acknowledges natural/inherent rights and protects them from GOVERNMENT infringement.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
So much boom.
The #1A only protects your free speech, free assembly, and freedom of religion from GOVERNMENT infringement.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
The #2A covers arms. ALL ARMS. If the Founders has been referring to muskets they would have noted that somewhere. They didn’t.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
ALL ARMS.
The federal gov’t does not pay for firefighters, police officers, libraries, schools, roads, or most other infrastructure in your community. Google “City Council”
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Google is your friend.
In the unlikely event Roe v Wade is overturned America will not become a dystopian hellscape full of dead mothers and unwanted starving children.

Your grandmother is not going to die immediately or be forced to eat cat food if Congress reforms Social Security.

No one is trying to take away your birth control. In point of fact, we ardently wish more people used it responsibly for maximum effectiveness.

Can we get an amen?!
Conservatives do not hate sex. We love sex. Lots of sex. We just don’t want to discuss it or see it 24/7. Somethings should really stay private.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Conservatives don’t want or like dirty air or dirty water. We just don’t think that the federal gov’t is the best at keeping our air and water clean.

Forcing people to violate their deeply held religious beliefs does not end discrimination it IS discrimination.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
It is not racist to criticize a person of color. It is not racist to criticize a policy a person of color advocates. If you hear racist dog whistles you might need to ask yourself why.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Bingo.
It is not sexist to criticize women. It is not sexist to criticize a policy a woman advocates. If you hear sexist dog whistles you might need to ask yourself why.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Bingo again.
Supporting the application of current immigration law is not racist or xenophobic.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Did we say boom already? Because BOOM.
If everyone thinks you’re an asshole you’re probably not “pissing off the right people” you’re probably just an asshole.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Hrm.
Asking relevant questions about accusations of sexual assault or rape is not victim blaming. It is not revictimizing the victim. It is necessary to establish that the accuser is an actual victim.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 29, 2018
Being pro-life =/= pro birth. Being pro-life generally means supporting safe responsible behavior, whether that means abstinence or using effective birth control, so that no woman is ever put in the position of choosing abortion or the life of her child.

If you really truly want to be effective in politics the best place to be is in your community. Local. School boards, city council, county commissioners. Research them, know them, know their staff, get involved.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 30, 2018
When you focus on who is in the WH and ignore your local gov’t you’re an idiot. Your local school board has more effect on your life than POTUS.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 30, 2018
Seriously, if you don’t know who your local government officials are but you flip shit over what POTUS says you should be ashamed of yourself.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 30, 2018
Our entire system of gov’t is purposely designed to ensure things move at a glacial pace. That we’re forced to compromise. That we cannot be reactionary. We’re limited, deliberately, by our constitution.
— Heather (@hboulware) October 30, 2018
Heather mentions more than once that she will be adding tweets to this thread, so we highly encourage you to bookmark this one.
Especially if you’re a Leftist.
