Yes i did, thanks for pointing out someone might actually say this seriously, much like the poster before me. added tone indicator
Sorry, I forgot the consensus is that we need to excuse their behavior and that they are absolutely deserving of my charity. /s
Screw off. They want this. They overwhelmingly want this. I'm fucking done trying to help them stave off the consequences to their own hateful, bigoted actions. Are some of them redeemable? Probably. But I've spent years trying to find those redeemable people, and now trump is president again. So, fuckem. They can suffer while I try to keep them from killing my family, which they keep promising to do. Please take your sanctimony and stick it straight up your ass.
Did i ever say anything about excusing anyone? Are you able to understand nuance? That there are more than two positions in the world other than "with you" and "against you"?
Can't you see that this attitude is what alienated enough people to push them towards the fascists who just tell them everything they want to hear?
Do you seriously believe "gamers" is a solid label? That everyone who turned on a PlayStation voted trump?
Look, rage against people who voted for trump is definetely understandable, and I'm not asking you to forgive anyone. But the rage you expressed is just a catharsis shot toward anyone, and risks of making you see the world in black and white. It's not, and the enemy wins when you think that. When it's us against them
