I can't think of a more fitting punishment for all of those elderly MAGA boomers who have alienated their entire families by being hateful and disgusting dying because of a lack of good elder care due to their hatred of immigrants.
I would rather see them live, and suffer the constant knowledge that they can do nothing without the help of their immigrant caregivers; who I hope are LGBTQ as well.
My mom is one of these hateful MAGAts, but loves the "nice Mexican lady" that cleans her apartment for such a reasonable price.
Don't worry, they have enough cognitive dissonance to not be bothered by this in the least.
Yeah I was about to say these people spent a lifetime using immigrant labor. They probably still get kicks out of having someone beneath them wipe their asses
If they can find that someone. Sounds like they may not be able to. Good.
On the contrary, they don’t have any cognitive dissonance, that’s why they’re not bothered—dissonance suggests they feel discomfort in holding their opposing views
They’re just really good at doublethink

They still can vote then, so no. I'd prefer change over lightly satisfying thoughts.
I think it would be funnier to have them cared for by immigrants
I don't want them being assholes to even more people.
Funny for us, maybe. I wouldn't want to inflict them on the poor immigrant workers though. There's only so much hate crime a 90 year old man can get up to but by gee by golly he's gonna put the effort into it.
