Top Comments: Here comes 2025 [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-01-01

Normally the new year is a time for optimism and fresh starts. Considering the state of the country, and the planet, I’m having a hard time with that this year. But I’m not willing to give in to despair.

And now a word from our sponsor!

Here at Top Comments we welcome longtime as well as brand new Daily Kos readers to join us at 10pm Eastern. We strive to nourish community by rounding up some of the site's best, funniest, most mojo'd & most informative commentary, and we depend on your help!! If you see a comment by another Kossack that deserves wider recognition, please send it either to topcomments at gmail or to the Top Comments group mailbox by 9:30pm Eastern. Pleaseplease please include a few words about why you sent it in as well as your user name (even if you think we know it already :-)), so we can credit you with the find!

So here is my New Year’s resolution: I will not surrender. I will stand with trans people, immigrants, and anyone else targeted by the incoming nightmare regime. I will find community with my neighbors. I will not go back in the closet. I will speak up even when my voice shakes. I will vote with my actions and my wallet. I will keep fighting to make my country a land of liberty and justice for ALL of us, no matter how long it takes.

(PS to RickBoston the legions of fans of my annual “Year in Books” posts: they’ll be up the next 2 Wednesdays.)

On to Top Comments!

From fellow Top Commenteer cohenzee:

Doncoolidge brings the smackdown onto SCROTUS chief Johnny Robberbaron with this comment.

From twingrace:

I'd like to nominate the entire (4 comment) exchange between wesmorgan1 and the author of a very brief, and therefore not terribly well received, diary, friedbones.

Diary:

https://www.dailykos.com/story/2025/01/01/2294636/-The-blue-state-revolution-that-MAGA-is-completely-missing



wesmorgan1 added a lot of content that made the diary more accessible to everyone, and friedbones responded in a very gracious way, thanking him not only for the content but for learning new things about how to post.



The exchange started here:

If we all were so gracious with each other there would be a lot less pain on this site.
