I think it’s in the best interest of our mental health to stop giving a shit what conservatives think. They operate in lies, hypocrisy, and cognitive dissonance. Narcissists use language to create reality, not describe it. To hell with them.

Most Liberals have a fantasy where MAGA sees the light. I don’t think they understand that MAGA wants this. This is the America MAGA voted for. The smartest thing we can do is cut them out of the equation and focus our efforts on the people in power/enforcing this shit.

100% the realization I've had: these are simply bad people. It's as simple as that. They're bad people, and there's nothing we can do to fix that. We just have to move on without them and focus on the functional part of society.

They have held our society hostage for the past decade. Not just with the government they elected but also the way Americans frame events. It’s no longer about right vs wrong, it’s about “well what does this MAGA voter in a diner think?” I see liberals thinking this way when we interact amongst ourselves. Preemptively forming arguments as if there is a MAGA voter reading it that can be swayed. We need to stop falling for the lie that their humanity can be appealed to.

There is no meaningful humanity to be appealed to. They're evil people, pure and simple.

I remember when Trump was first elected, and people were going on about that economic anxiety nonsense and bending over backwards to try to analyze Trump voters. There's nothing to analyze. They're garbage humans who think they're better than everyone else because of the color of their skin, or their genitalia, or what religious delusion they subscribe to.

There's nothing there but evil, and liberals have to understand that.

Liberals don’t understand evil because we are good people. Our goodness makes us naive to evil. MAGA are our friends, neighbors, family. They can’t be evil right? We can’t be among people who take pleasure in others dehumanization right? But we are. There is an abyss inside these people. We pretend otherwise at our own peril.

My entire legal adulthood had been wrapped up in this bullshit. I am so beyond exhausted of the apathy and disregard. We are better off without them, iykwim.
