These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,… whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

    Listen, either what happened is OK or it isn’t. And when you say “these are humans who voted with concerns for themselves and their communities” it makes seem like electing a felon, rapist, insurrectionist moron to the highest office is OK.

    So that’s why I’m here writing to you: to fucking tell you that it’s not, and to ask you to not try to justify it or make this shit sound reasonable. It’s not.

      No one is going to listen to your points if you come from a place of hatred. It may not be “okay” but it doesn’t mean someone who didn’t vote for Kamala for one reason is the same as another who may be a serial sociopath. Everyone has their reasons. You’ll reach people by talking to them about it. Not chastising them.

        72 million Trump voters embraced the hatred Trump spewed. Literally look at what you’re saying and apply it to what happened the other day and decide yourself if you’re wrong or right.

          72 million voters voted for Trump, that’s not equivalent with embracing Trump’s hatred. Trump’s base is bigoted and hateful, but that doesn’t mean every voter is. A lot of them seem clueless, by all accounts. I think a lot of them were just voting against the incumbent because they were upset about price gouging and inflation.
