Maybe fifty percent need to be alienated.
So you get fired but at least you can be proud while unemployed?
I’d rather work a job where people don’t support mothers being shot in the face or people carrying legal and holstered weapons don’t get shot ten times in the back after being disarmed.
That's easy enough to say on the internet, but your recent incendiary hyperbole aside, hard to do IRL.
I don't think even most Trump supporters would say, especially in an employment context, that they "support mothers being shot in the face or people carrying legal and holstered weapons don’t get shot ten times in the back after being disarmed."
Even Trump said the most recent ICE killing was "unfortunate," so your hyperbole puts even him in your camp. When you've built a straw-man that represents approximately 0% of the population, why even bother fighting it here except maybe for Lemmy clout?
That’s the problem it’s way more than zero percent of the population.
I don't disagree with that statement but it's barely relevant to the sub-topic we're on here.
Well you just said the complete opposite.
Your fault for not specifying which "it" you were referring to. I don't re-read my own comments as a full-time job, and didn't on this occasion.
Again, seeing as even Trump doesn't “support mothers being shot in the face or people carrying legal and holstered weapons [getting] shot ten times in the back after being disarmed," I don't know who you're talking about when you preach against them. Again, presumably you're virtue-signaling.
The worst I've seen from MAGA are the ones who say it's unfortunate but generally victim-blame them for their actions; they'll say "Well, he may have been disarmed and therefore shouldn't have been shot, but he shouldn't have been there in the first place." I have yet to see a single person even on the anonymous pages of the internet saying their deaths were a good thing.
You just have to look and you’ll see people celebrating Pretti’s death while hating the second amendment.
I do look; I'm telling you I haven't seen it in all the places I've looked.
