    You can still empathize with people who were uninformed and subsequently exploited / harmed.

    Giving into the “me vs them” team mentality is giving the oligarchs exactly what they want: divide and conquer.

      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.
