The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to "Leftists who won't vote" & "MAGA Republicans" teaming up to "getting revenge on liberals".

Oh look, it's another metaphor that ignores the fact that doing what we're doing is actively harming other people (and comparing genocide to "eating cake"). You gave the gun Timmy was playing with to his brown friend and even disengaged the safety for him. And then you're surprised when the little boy's parents are upset you gave him the loaded gun. You're right. This is a good metaphor for this situation we're in.

This reply is so bad I'm comfortable not giving an actual response.

Edit: I should've just said "ratio". ๐Ÿ˜‚

Go back to the trolly metaphor where you at least admit that you're killing someone with your actions.
