Trump supporter is done
(sh.itjust.works)
Transcript:
I've been a loyal Trump supporter since 2016.
I lost a job, friendships, been smeared online, doxxed, and pressed charges on people who've stalked and harassed me for supporting him.
If Trump doesn't want my support, because I care about the Epstein Files, then I'm done.
Bye.

Being loyal to ANY politician is insane.
I love Bernie. While I don't agree with him on everything, he's consistently been on the moral right side of most issues. Here he is being arrested for protesting segregation in 1963:
However. If he did even 1% of the things Trump did, I would call him out for it, demand he do better, and support his primary challengers if not. Unconditional loyalty to a politician doesn't keep them in check, and actually harms us all...
+1.
Even if someone wholesome (Mamdani?) somehow took over the Democrats, or any cool party, I would never be "loyal" to them.
Maybe this is my old millennial ass shaking my fist, but I don't get why folks are loyal to influencers. Loyalty should be two way and reciprocal, to friends and family one knows personally, not asymmetrically to someone who makes a living from thousands following them.
Respect and admiration? Fine. But this guy's a poster child for why loyalty is too far. After all, what does Trump think of him?
Seeing “old millennial ass” just seems so wrong.
We’re the young generation, right? We’re like, 25 at most. Right?
I’m 40. Oh my god. I need a Camaro and a broccoli haircut so I can fit in with the hip crowd. Broccoli hair is still a thing right? Haha
Man it goes so fast.
I know.
Curls into ball.
I do have natural broccoli hair, though...
Lucky! :p
At least you still have hair! I started shaving my head a few years ago at 35. Still haven't gotten used to it, but I think it looks better than when it was thinning out in the front and getting stringy.
Not only am I blessed to have a full head of hair, but my younger brother has always been so much more handsome than me. Girls clawed to get to him, they fought to get to him.
It was so funny the other night when I was on a video call with him and his wife, and I don’t even remember the comment that I made, but she pointed out that he was bald, and I had a full head of hair and I nearly lost it.
I’m sorry that probably hurts you. It’s just a win for me, it was always so fucking easy for him. Now he’s bald and mad about it, and here I am with a beautiful lion’s mane.
He could read this comment easily, he knows all of my usernames and shit online.
So hey, I have a full head of hair asshole. Where’s your hair?
It’s so crazy though, everything I ever did, he did it better. Just across the board entirely. Still to this day, shit I busted my ass on for 25 years. He’s doing it better with no effort.
So all I really have is my hair. He has it all, the lucky bastard. It’s only right that he went bald. Nobody should be able to have it all.
Ehhh I made it longer than all the other males on my moms side. They all went bald in their mid 20s. Gotta hurt.
Yeah I’d say. I’m older now and things that would have killed me in my 20s don’t mean a damn thing now. Even if something does bother me, it just is what it is.
I don’t know. We get what we get. I’m crosseyed, can’t do anything about that. It used to bother me but it doesn’t anymore. The hair I do have is turning gray.
Whatever we get, we just gotta live with it. :p
As a gen y (I refuse the notion of being letterless dammit!) I have no idea what broccoli hair means...
It's a perm, but for the youths!
I didn’t either!
Wait til you hit fifty, it's really disconcerting.
Trump literally told them that he will not need them after this again. No, he does not want or care for their support!
"In four years, You don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good. You're not going to have to vote."
Yeah, describing yourself as a "loyal" politician supporter basically means you'll ignore whatever wrong doing they do and root for your "team".
Being loyal to anyone who doesn't know your name personally is borderline insane.
I can vaguely imagine soldiers being loyal to a general in a war. If a general always seems to find a way to win, even against the odds, I can picture his soldiers being willing to... well not to die for him, but the opposite. I can imagine them being fiercely loyal and trying to protect him because he's making sure they don't die.
You basically plucked the thought from my head as to why I added 'borderline' to that sentence. Yes, in a desperate situation, it's not insane to glom on to the safest option available.
But war has never been a great place for being rife with sane options, it's almost always created by one or more people being insane in the first place and making it their neighbors' problem.
I feel like that ought to extend to everybody. I'm "loyal" only to the acts/values I'm on board with, and even then, not really, because I'm always open to changing my mind based on new information.
The concept of sticking with someone out of loyalty, regardless of who they are, after they've done something horrible, makes no sense to me, personally.
