my glorious brilliant allies 

i can't even begin to understand what kind of big brain would lead a Biden supporter to see a list of famous American socialists including Albert Einstein, Helen Keller, and the author of the Pledge of Allegiance... assume it's coming from a Republican.. and attack it as some kind of "Trump won" rant.

okay, i can, but maybe this is a sign that we all, including me, need to take a deep breath, get away from Twitter for a long time, and think about what it's doing to our brains

or maybe i'll just relax and indulge in the fundamental attribution error just this once and assume he's a dumbass

re: my glorious brilliant allies 

@zebratron2084 we're all running pretty angry these days - like the person who posted an intersex flag update to the even-more-inclusive pride flag got shouted down and called a TERF. The only reason I haven't called out (accurately or not) some of my allies rabid antisemites is that, I've been trained I'm not permitted to do that. Etc, etc.

So I can see an angry error being pretty plausible.
