So that gives his supporters an excuse to be boorish jackasses. It's a shit cycle.

But it might be a good idea to avoid being crappy to people who fell for the Russo-Trump propaganda and now regret it. Same with people in the left who fell for the Russian mind twisting operation and voted Green or blue or purple. We need a blowout. That doesn't mean agreeing to right wing policies and people. Just not throwing away the chance that our positions might actually attract people who realize they screwed up badly in 2016.if we don't make them feel they're lower than dirt.

Rick Wilson, you have every right.

These are not "civil" people we are dealing with. They made it personal with me too, causing great personal harm to me and I also will never forgive or forget. There has never been one apology or attempt at making amends. As far as I'm concerned, they are scum and a scourge on the human race.
