They were informed. They were warned. They were told about “project 2025” and how bad it would be. They’ve been through one trump presidency. They knew what they signed up for.

My stance on trump voters:

If you voted for him the first time, you made a foolish/uninformed decision. But forgivable.

If you voted for him the second time, you’re a dumb person and I don’t trust you.

If you voted for him this third time, after the insurrection, after how horrible he has proven to be, fuck you. You’re evil. No pity from me.

It is frustrating that a person can be as willfully idiotic as they can and if they get taken for fools by the fascists, that the left is right there with a safety net preventing them from finding out after they fucked around. I think at some point you are enabling idiots to go on being idiots without consequences.

Largely I agree, but at some point kindness in the face of hatred becomes its own kind of idiocy. You can't be allies with someone who is ambivalent or worse about whether you live or die.

Greatest challenge of our time imo. I'm very, very pessimistic about it
