This is BS.

Every single election we are told that economic hardship is the only thing pay attention to. Sure, many of these rubes will continue to be fooled and are irredeemable. But a shit ton are going to notice and eventually get tired of getting fucked.

I am not saying they will stop voting republicans because they do seem to like the pain, but they would sure as hell eat the current administration

Are we all just cowering down? Reading these comments makes it sounds like we should just all give up.

I do not think it is saying we need to give up fighting.

I think people like me need to hear these messages because we have conservative friends and family we haven't given up because we think that once things get absurd enough, they will finally see the error of their ways.

We still believe they are good people, but they are clearly not.

There's something really wrong with them, and it is not within our power to remedy.

What we can do instead, is redirect our time and our energy towards others in our communities that are ready to flight.

We heading to the bad place. Im ok though, I realize in many ways I hit a sweet spot in history and location. Kinda like riding out the wave of progress into the dumpster.

The blame can always be shifted. Dying of diabetes because your Medicaid got cut? That’s actually the fault of that DEIgger president who broke healthcare.
