We have a state senator, Doug Erickson that's a giant piece of shit and I figured I'd give a primer because he's about to be all over the national news. He's a super-Trumper that checks all of the typical boxes and sucks for our state in general, but there's also a few fun facts.
- He tried to pass legislature that would effectively protect a person from vehicular manslaughter if they drove through a protest.
- Rampant, over the top anti-vaxxer (more on that later).
- Since 2018, he's been paid about $500,000 a year by the Cambodian goverment for lobbying and PR work to cover up their absolutely violent protest suppression. Commie bucks or dictator bucks, you decide.
- He's since been doing the same work for the El Salvadorian dictatorship.
- What happened on his most recent trip to El Salvador? He got COVID and immediately started begging for people to send him treatment (on the taxpayer's dime, which is illegal).
- After desperate requests for meds to be sent to him, he supposedly ended up in Florida. That's just a guess though, because all of this flamed up about 3 weeks ago, and nobody has any idea where he is.
Hopefully this is another Rest in Piss scenario, because this cancerous shit has been gaming the system for too long.
- Sounds like he's got a good chance at a Herman Cain award.mandomafioso
- Hotroddy's kind of guy.utopian
- Ericksen*. Everyone makes mistakes, like early morning typos or ignoring medical professionals. Whoopsie!garbage
- Uncle Dougie did his best to fight the vaccine mandates & gleefully promoted disinformation. Trump will miss this lil' guy.
He had such a bright future.utopian - You probably wrote this within a day or two of his death due to Covid. Chalk one up for Darwin.CyBrainX
- Posted on the 15th, two days prior to his death, but everyone already assumed it because he went missing for weeks.garbage

Update to the previous post:
They found Doug Ericksen. He died of COVID. T's and P's.
- MAGA tears & tweetsutopian
- He was only 52. According to pr2, the biggest fucking idiot anywhere, he wasn’t even in the “danger zone” the fucking moron made up.monospaced
- If you’re like this ass hat and pr2 and don’t get vaccinated or take precautions, and spread misinformation, you actually deserve to die from covid.monospaced
- Silver lining is that for about a week he had immunity because he contracted covid. Worth it.monospaced
- @mono it's even more severe. When WA state put forward a vaccine mandate for state workers, lil Dougie here went on a warpath. Lots of soundbites of him..garbage
- ..saying he would not be vaccinated, and demanded that our governor resign. Then the second he got sick he was demanding the best treatment money can buy.garbage
- Maybe the Senate can get some things passed now.instrmntl
- He was a WA state senator, which makes it weirder that he was on the payroll of brutal foreign regimes. This guy did things that creeped out his GOP colleagues.garbage
- But no, the US Senate will get nothing passed for Manchin reasons.garbage
- Yupmonospaced
- Manchin reasons that will be blamed on Biden and the rest of the Democrats.CyBrainX
- ^ Correction - have been blamed on Biden and the Democrats since Biden took office.CyBrainX
- I mean, Biden sucks and has proved to be toothless, but Manchin and Sinema are actual DINO obstructionists.garbage

In his 2020 book “Politics Is for Power,” Eitan Hersh, a political scientist at Tufts, sketched a day in the life of many political obsessives in sharp, if cruel, terms.
"I refresh my Twitter feed to keep up on the latest political crisis, then toggle over to Facebook to read clickbait news stories, then over to YouTube to see a montage of juicy clips from the latest congressional hearing. Then I check the QBN Politics thread. I then complain to my family about all the things I don’t like that I have seen."
To Hersh, that’s not politics. It’s what he calls “political hobbyism.” And it’s close to a national pastime. “A third of Americans say they spend two hours or more each day on politics,” he writes. “Of these people, four out of five say that not one minute of that time is spent on any kind of real political work. It’s all TV news and podcasts and radio shows and social media and cheering and booing and complaining to friends and family.”
- That’s not how citing articles works lol. Nice try ;)monospaced
