Moms For Liberty Is Tearing Itself Apart

One of the Republican Party’s most successful grassroots organizations is being torn apart by scandal, including accusations of sexual assault.

Not grassroots. Same way that the Tea Party wasn’t grassroots.

Exactly, even if there ever was a real grass roots aspect to it, which I doubt, it was quickly suborned.

Grassroots barely exists anymore. There’s no room for anything to grow organically any longer.

Moms for Liberty will go away, however some other AstroTurf group will find a way to fleece the flock with manufactured outrage.

Not to be cliché, but evil always turns on itself. It cannot create, only destroy.

The absolute best outcome since their inception.

Since it turns out many of them are closet lesbians, maybe they're just fucking themselves over.

it's no surprise when a bunch of hateful people end up being hateful all the time

oh no, the Nazis have descended upon each other! Who could have seen this coming? What a catastrophe!

I'm sure they'll splinter off into their own extremist tangents, but hopefully a few of them decide to shut the fuck up forever.

Well that's a disappointment. I wish more Nazi groups would take after their leader when it comes to self destruction.

well, best speed and good luck, hope their self destruction is fast and brutal!

What good news
