    David Hogg is surprisingly good at this stuff. I wish him a long and successful career. I realize that will probably mean I’m going to hate his guts in twenty years, but that’s ok.

            The same can be said for a lot of the views these days. In my youth with my white christian nationalist, church going family I was taught to be compassionate, treat others with goodwill, be polite, help others, donate, help out the community. That same family now says that’s the thinking that is hurting our country. I don’t understand how even empathy for others is now considered a bad thing. I mean, why is there an argument over “You know, I don’t want people treating me like shit. I won’t treat others like shit.”? The Golden Rule is ignored now, lest you become “woke” or a “libtard”.

      I’ve hated his guts since he started speaking out, but that’s because he’s just correct enough and has the moral standing enough that I have nothing to use against him and his pro-gun-control platform.

      He’s a DNC shill, but whether he’s a kool-aid-drinker or just using them(no sign of that, but this coin-operated boy can hope), I can’t help but wish him the best after what he’s been through.

          My lane is that Kirk needed to die, and listening to Hogg would have prevented it. Same goes for the leftist revolution that needs to happen, but I’ll settle for laughing at arterial blood spray for now, because I already know I’m an awful person. What’s your excuse?

          Hogg has views that are correct for him, what he’s lived through, and sure, decent countries, which ours is not. The one view is unfortunately incompatible with what the people need for the US government and its cronnies.
