  • I do argue that.

    I argue that the people who voted for him REALLY wanted him in office and the people who couldn’t be bothered to vote at all were fine with any outcome, including Trump getting into office. So they may not be rabid supporters or active voters, but yes, they do support and enable him.

    You know, people often think that not picking a side is some enlightened choice, that by doing nothing you’re actually doing nothing. But nothing is farther from the truth. Doing nothing IS a choice. It’s a choice to stay quiet and silently accept evil. It’s a choice to stay quiet in the face of injustice, it’s a choice to NOT help the victim. Staying neutral always helps the bully.

    And we all know this. We learned this in kindergarten. Staying quiet always helps the bully. We knew this as kids, we witnessed it. Nobody gets to pretend they don’t understand this dynamic as a grown-up. It is a choice and they made it.













  • I just can’t imagine how hopeless these people must feel. It’s a fucking nightmare. You’re accused of something you haven’t done (not that anyone deserves this, even if they are criminals), there’s no way for you to even make anyone listen to you and you’re dumped in a prison in a foreign country with no hope of ever getting out? It’s just… jesus christ, the injustice of it all is simply heartbreaking.

    To think that millions of people are actually cheering for this is terrifying. If I were American, I’d be terrified. If “illegals” can’t have due process, then nobody has due process, because how are you going to prove you’re a citizen without due process? They can literally grab you off the street and send you to a concentration camp and there’s nothing you can do about it, because all they have to do is claim you’re illegal.

    I honestly don’t understand how all these people in power are even still alive.
