    Bro, you’ve literally lost it you’ve really broken yourself completely you think I support Trump or the Republicans.

    He says that about everyone to his left.

      Yeah but they are not a bad person; they’re a person obviously in crisis or very close to it. It’s been a terrible year. It’s not their fault for being wrong about what it was going to take to stop fascism.

      They’re desperate, and flailing for a villain, for someone outside themselves to blame. And I consider them to still be a friend, just like I do almost every one here (except that JimSantanko). And they have clearly been losing their grasp on things. And if they need me to be a villain for them, sure. I can be that for them if that’s what they need. But they are clearly in pain and desperate and the mental structure they were using to explain the world are falling apart.

      Liberals and Democrats are having a hard time right now because they’re becoming aware that the current state of the world is a crisis of their own making. It’s obvious through the thread of failure with has been Democratic leadership, how the authoritarian Blue MAGA/ bnmw brainrot sabotaged our ability to stop Trump.

      The world is changing beneath their feat and what was obvious to many of us is becoming obvious to everyone, even if it’s too late for it to matter. And for those who dug their feet into wrong approaches, insisting it was the people to the lefts fault; as the world moves on from them their grip on the narrative slips.

      Mostly I just care that finite is safe, isn’t going to self harm, and if they need to project some villainy into me that somehow I stopped Harris from winning by begging her to put a Palestinian on stage, so be it.

        They have no interest whatsoever in stopping fascism, or they would be honest about its enablers.

          When someone is in a mental health situation, you can’t expect them to “step up and start acting rational”. If you want to help someone in crisis, you need to be willing to go meet them where they are at if you want to help them.

          The world is moving on and it’s finally clicking for the shitlibs who were certain they could just shame voters into believing that Biden had been a good president. Some of them at least. I have a whole thing I’ve got on another tab about this.

          Just… go to c/politics and sort by controversial, all time, And reread those threads. It’s like actually shocking.

            Everyone’s in crisis right now. There’s a crisis going on at a worldwide level. I’m not going to treat a pig-stubborn genocide supporter with kid gloves just so he can keep spreading his lies unchallenged.

            Maybe. But not that particular shitlib. He’ll never accept that netanyahu’s proxies are anything other than absolute perfection.
