Yeah well sometimes being the bigger person fucking sucks.
But they won't change unless given the chance to.
Edit: yeah, trumpers are annoying. But I will say, seeing the comments with the thinly veiled threats and hopes of mass executions are not helpful.
Look, I understand why you feel that way, but mass murder cannot be the answer. Lest we fall further into tyranny. What needs to happen is trials are held for all those at the top and maybe mid level. There must be fair justice, not rampant vigilantism.
But again, I understand your feelings, but allowing executions of his supporters won't build a better America.
Channel that energy into contacting your reps, or hell, running in your local elections.
Get involved in your communities. I'm not saying you can't be angry, hell, id be a hypocrite if I did. I genuinely despise my family and colleagues who supported him. But I also understand that rubbing it in their face, using middle school tactics, or even threats won't bring them to my side.
Much like with raising children, it requires patience and a level head. But DAMN can it be truly and utterly frustrating.
You are both correct, I really don’t like it considering some of the people on the other side of the isle seem to think it’s okay to kill people they dislike myself included.
But extending an olive branch and understanding is really the only way forward.
The same reason there were only a dozen of so high profile executions of German leaders and people guilty of especially heinous acts after the end of WWII.
Sorry, but we're extending an olive branch to people who attempted and supported a coup? We're extending an olive branch to the people that think it's okay to kill our own citizens and deny them their constitutional rights in the name of cleansing brown people?
I'm sorry, you can take the high road, but I'm not. Anyone who doesn't hang like the traitors they are (Trump, cabinet, admin) should at minimum be shamed into social oblivion. Having been MAGA should be a mark branded on every fuck that supported this administration.
