"I love how he commits crimes openly and shares American national secrets with anyone he can aggrandize or enrich himself by."
Trump supporters really are just the worst people.
Not just the worst people but failed human beings. They lack any redeeming qualities to make them near human. There is no saving them, no redemption, no undoing what damage they have willingly accepted to themselves.
i have more sympathy than anything else for them. i see them as a very sad lot, who desperately need psychiatric counseling and for many, an actual education.
dehumanizing them dehumanizes you
Unfortunately, they are the first to cut education funds, strip our schools of essential curriculum, and believe our teachers are subhuman and should make minimum wage.
I say fuck 'em.
I used to have sympathy and compassion for them. I truly did. Their response to everything throughout the pandemic, their vitriolic attacks towards anything and anyone that was working to provide support, sympathy, empathy, compassion, or just improving the lives of those less fortunate have erased any sense of good will that I may have had for them.
If dehumanizing them dehumanizes me, then I accept it. They don’t deserve anyone’s sympathy or respect. The new only thing they deserve is contempt and the consequences of their actions.
