    Eeeyep. And my reply to them?

    “You did. You absofuckinglutely did. History has proven time and time and time and (four hours later) time again that right-wing dictatorships do EXACTLY what the Shitgibbon’s administration is doing. You voted for it. You just hoped it’d happen to the people you didn’t like. News flash. They don’t like you. So, pack your bags and drop your shorts. The Dildo of Consequences has arrived, and as usual, it is not lubed. Enjoy!!!”

        I’m not going to join the downvote brigade because I do appreciate your position, but I will say…

        …these people have had PLENTY of space to change who they are and how they vote. They had 4 years of ‘finding out’ after they fucked around in 2016. And we warned them, big time, what a vote for him in 2024 would mean. How much space will you and others like you give these people. That’s the question of the hour.

          I agree that it would have been better for people to figure things out a lot sooner. Its really hard for folks who are either listening to the right wing propaganda machine or tuned out from the news. I’ll take late over never any day.

        Agreed, but what is disappointing is to see these people not change after they see consequences.

        At which point I have no more empathy for their plite.
