21. No, it's not OK

But how else do we get it through their thick fucking skulls that this is what they voted for? They voted for this kakistocracy. We can't count on the media to tell the truth. They have believed all the RW bullshit for too long. They need to understand they have been duped. It has to be visceral.

Petty? Yes. Vindictive? Yes. Will it hurt me? Sure. I Don't care anymore. My wife and I are in our 60's and will likely have to work for another decade in shitty jobs. No early retirement for us thanks in part to idiots who vote for corporate stooges. I've lived in red areas most of my life. I'm tired of hearing how bad liberals are while they reap the rewards of our work.

Edited to add. I suspect my attitude is also due to a feeling that it's going to get worse before it can get better. Rising insulin costs may be the tip of the iceberg. I'm scared for my daughters' future. I'm scared for my LGBTQ friends' future. Etc. I don't see a way out of this without a lot of pain.
