    These people really need to be ripped into through interviews. “Why? The party you voted for won, they’re doing exactly what they promised. Why are you upset now? Go enjoy the day out there, celebrate that they won and you’re getting what you vote for while the rest of us suffer!”

      That’s not inherently true. They watched their various costs of living double at least under Biden. Did you honestly expect people to continue to vote Dem when Dems, through their political activity, prioritized things like Israeli genocide over Americans struggling to put food on the table?

    This is not LAMF. The SNAP benefits are being affected by a government shutdown, and Trump obviously was never campaigning on or making a promise to shut down the government, so the first condition of LAMF (supporting the politician’s promise to do X) literally can’t be met.

        If your implication is that his failure to make a deal caused the government shutdown, that only supports my point more. Failing altogether to deliver on a campaign promise also is mutually exclusive with a LAMF situation.

        You can’t have a ‘he promised to do X, I assumed he’d do it to these other people only even though he didn’t say that, and now he’s doing it to me’ situation, if X never gets done in the first place.

    She voted for the shit sandwich smothered in orange sauce. Zero sympathy. However, 40 million hungry people might make the grocery store parking lots a dangerous place, especially for elderly people. I could see grocery bags getting snatched thanks to the MAGA fucknuts.

        A lot of them didn’t vote for people to suffer.

        They voted for change because Democrats prioritized genocide over helping American families’ ability to put food on the table.

          To even come to that logic in the first place you’d have to be fine with him stating he’s going to be a dictator and be fine with his racism and ties to Epstein.

          So… I don’t buy the bullshit that they didn’t vote for people to suffer. That’s the Republican talking point used to gaslight those that accuse them of being racists. Equivalent of that’s not a Nazi salute its our hearts go out to you.

      I’m convinced an utter lack of empathy is the reason why there’s a constant 40% support of Trump.

      How many times do you read stories about some Republican politician or right winger suddenly be not as horrid toward “the gays” because their kid came out? (Admittedly, that seems to happen a whole lot less now)

      These people just can’t put themselves in the shoes of anyone who isn’t exactly like them.

        These people just can’t put themselves in the shoes of anyone who isn’t exactly like them.

        For me it’s not even that, I’m geeedy, i want a stable, happy society because that makes for a happy life for me. I don’t want to have to deal with homeless when I walk down the street, so I want social housing and healthcare for them. I don’t want unwanted children in society, so women haveing total control over reproduction is vital.

        Any modicum of reseach can show you the dangers in society when there are large levels of wealth inequality, it literally destroys society, so i want high taxation of wealth and high death taxes and legislation to restrict incomes and capital.

        Any sane person looks at cars and tranportation and the deaths from pollution, noise, urban sprawl, accidents and destroying the enviorment, so i want decent cheap electric public transport and cycling infrastructure.

        I know when i travel, visas and borders are fuxking annoying and i don’t want them at all. People only up and move from their family and friends if something toxic is happening , so let them, I’d want the same thing for me

        I’m the anthesies of most people it seems, I was conservative when I was young, had a STEM degree but the more i read and observe the more I understand most conservative view points are mostly toxic to a livable society.

        Religion should never be involved in state affairs, including ALL education, it’s pernicious, people should be horrified to see “In God we Trust” in their justice sustem but here we are.

        Like holy fucking shit, what a way to figure out that social safety nets are tools which preserve social order and not just some feel good charity. If only someone had been explaining this to you constantly for literally a fucking century.

        And now consider that empathy is a learned skill. And that it requires both shitty parents & education to remain completely undeveloped. Then think about the timeline. The Great American Project To Make The People Putty In The Hands Of The Few Again is nearing fruition.

      Yep. Sometimes I feel sympathy with far right voters because leopards ate they face and they find themselves in a really tough spot. Like now. But then I hear them talk for maybe half a minute and realize my sympathy was misplaced. They need to feel pain. They need to suffer. It‘s called learned process and they‘re often not even halfway there yet when they start complaining about the things they voted for. Their selfishness is maddening.

      This line I think sums them up entirely.

      Its only about the things that impact them personally. Not even their neighbors, and maybe not even friends unless they have to hear about it or something.

      Its just purely selfish behavior, nothing else.
