I was gonna title this "And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice" and then write "Stuck inside of America with the fascism blues again" here, but I'm not sure if that comes off like gloating and that's honestly the last thing I want to do this morning.
I was disinfecting my groceries, and Trump was confiscating my PPE to send it somewhere else. I was getting Covid checks, which was nice, but it wasn't exactly the same as working. I couldn't leave the house for a while. I couldn't buy certain mechanical things without going on a 3-month wait list. I knew some people who died.
They think they lived under better circumstances in the last Trump term, because the media and people like you spreading a certain type of mental landscape and inviting them to inhabit it. But that's not actually what happened.
If belittling the people could cost you support in America, Trump would be in prison right now.
Now if you ask whether the media told people that Democrats were belittling them, now that's a different story. That, to me, seems a lot more worth examining than it does to lecture the Democrats how important it is not to do some things they didn't do, that the media said they did.
Lol! Most people get their information from social media. Most people interact with others on social media.
Most Republicans have been called "racist, bigot, misogynist, shitty, worthless, non-human, "Nazis" who deserve to be cast out if not "removed permanently" from society!!!" on social media.
For no other reason than they had a differing opinion than the hive-mind did.
The media didn't have to tell me that liberals were belittling me.
Biden also called Trump supporters "garbage". Clinton called us "deplorable". And I have a funny suspicion that you don't disagree. We have been dehumanized. I have to try my hardest to make it clear that I am, in fact, NOT a fucking Nazi before I post something that I know will be considered "Nazi speak", just because it isn't blind alegence to the Democratic candidate.
So......yeah......you can't act like this is something the media implanted into our minds.
