We don’t deserve trump and the shitty republicans that pushed him to the top, no…. But the people that shat on everyone else in a fit of rage by electing trump to be their avatar? Yeah. I think they do deserve it.
Bottom line
while i get the feeling (in general people voting to harm others ought to at very least endure first the harm they wish on others) but i don't think even nazis deserve concentration camp internment and genocide. if we've got a stick big enough to do that, we have a stick big enough to do better.
This is about a business owner losing his business due to the person he voted for. Not someone being genocided. So I have no clue why you are bringing that in
because someone losing their business is on the smaller end of visible repercussions we've already seen
He campaigned on doing the whole idiotic tarrif thing that crashed and burned in his first term. It was one of the only actual policy positions he stood by without his vague non answer bullshit.
This guy who voted for him, having seen him campaign, and should have known it would hurt his business. Guy specifically voted for the guy who campaigned on ruining his business. Yeah he deserves this.
You trying to divert the topic to something no one else is talking, does nothing.
small businesses often get away much more shit than a larger one does, because theres no media attention on how unethical some small businesses operate.
Elaborate?
Oft doth the lesser tradesman escape with manifold misdeeds, forasmuch as no watchful eye of the public nor herald of the press attendeth his dealings, and the unseemly courses of such humble shops go unmarked.
So true
Y’know, 15 years ago we tried tolerance. This is what it got us. No, I’m afraid tolerance is no longer a viable option.
Tolerance requires the recipient to be grateful for the tolerance. These people see tolerance as a weakness to be ruthlessly exploited.
We tried tolerance, it didn't work. We can't make that mistake again. We need to pivot to a strategy the MAGAs will understand and respect, which is crushing them mercilessly. They are evil, treasonous, corrupt pedophiles, and will require a strong boot on their throats for a generation or two, until they learn their lesson once and for all.
there's a whole lot of other options besides tolerance and genocide. not being an expert in the subject, i couldn't list all of them
You're the only one talking about genocide
We aren't even punishing them. Their own choices are quite literally doing this to themselves. I'm just enjoying the show.
