Why do you feel the need to put me down like that? :(
Why do you feel a need to turn your attention to me and skipping over considering the validity of what I said? I told you as clearly as I know how that you accused me of blaming you in a post in which I said you were innocent of blame. Why didn't you address that. Why didn't you either deny or confirm that? And why did you seem to take it as a put down hypothetically suggested you might be childish when you had in the same post that you said I was blaming you, you actually did state you do think I am too old to grasp the concepts here. I mean you were just innocently stating facts, right, whereas I was somehow insulting. I mean, If my words hurt your feelings maybe it was because you got some glimmer of feeling that you were being an ass. Try to understand, you hate yourself and anything that suggests as much you will feel is an attack so long as you fail to confront where who your real worst critic is. I know it's a difficult concept to grasp.

So again, did you accuse me of blaming you in a post where I said you were not to blame? I mean that is possible I guess if you blame yourself because you do not deserve to be innocent of anything. Oh! Now wouldn't that be interesting.

What is your reaction?

My honest reaction? Don't give a fuck. They FAFO'd

Article doesn't say if he voted for Trump but if he didn't likely would have said so.



This excerpt from the article. It's not hard to understand, you voted Republican. It's just that simple. We all knew this was coming and we warned you over and over.


I don't like feeling this way but if you were willing to fuck over the country just to maintain power then so be it.

I'd bet one of my silver dollars that come election time, that lady will compulsively vote red again. It's in their blood, transfused by FOX and those alleged conservative AM radio talk show hosts and media clowns, whose only goal is to make bank by riding the coat tails of the likes of Trump. They're laughing their asses off taking their loads of conservative cash to their conservative owned banks that in turn finance their operations.

Cause you were talking to me - and then you said a mean thing? It's hard to see past that with a sense of objectivity once it's out there you know?

Of course she will. Trump and the Repukelicans will have convinced her that all the things wrong in the country, all the bad things that are affecting HER...and Biden's fault.

That’s not what I see. What I see is a person out of their depth trying to save face by feigning hurt feelings while smugly pretending to yourself that the things I say affect you not at all. In this way you continue to pretend irrelevance to the fact that you accused me of blaming you in a post where I said the exact opposite.

Your big mistake in my opinion is that you treat this as a competition. I lost long ago. The paradoxical nature of of truth is that when you lose you win. 🏆
I retired that way and won so much I have much to share but you can only have what you are willing to take. I pretty much know what that is. That’s ok.

Voters are adults who have agency and we should stop pretending that they don't. This person helped make the bed, so they can sadly wallow with us in what they helped to foist onto us.

The median voter is a festering pustule of idiocy but they actively made their bed so now they get to lay in it. People say that we should forgive those who voted for Trump but say they were “tricked” or whatever. Most of the time those same people in the same breath say Kamala was just as bad. Nah, get fucked dumbasses. There was a huge substantive difference you were either too stupid to comprehend or you’re lying to yourselves because of partisanship/culture war bullshit that’s infected your brains. If this ship is going down I’ll be calmly having a drink at the bar while you lament the fate you chose.

Yes but what will happen will happen exactly as it must happen and how you feel about it, your attitude toward it and the people involved will not change a thing. The only thing you have any chance to change is how much you decide you want to invest in negative emotions that will damage your health. I suggest alcohol as a stress reliever is not an optional solution. Within you there's a secret garden.

Not giving a fuck is not a negative emotion. It is no emotion. I'm not wishing any new ill will but anything that is a direct result of voting for Trump is on her.

Just a few minutes ago, before reading your post, I was feeling no emotion as to the temperature on the dark side of the moon. But thinking about it now it's really not something I would proudly announce to you that I don't give a fuck about unless you tried to tell me otherwise or somehow made an issue of it. Fuck is a word intended to convey strong emotions and not giving a fuck is intended not to relay a lack of emotion but intentional cold indifference ment to convey the sense that what you don't care about is beneath your dignity. What you are really saying is that I was made to feel a victim that nobody cared about our and that now it's your turn for me to dismiss you.

I know you because I can see you in me. Running from the truth doesn't change anything but keep you in a prison. You were always worth caring about and denial won't heal those wounds. Only love will. Caring is how love manifests.

Harming others out if one's own mental illness is not to be permitted. The use of force to stop bad people or bring them to justice should be done with maximum compassion and if compassion for a victim they are about to harm can be prevented in no other way than by lethal force that's what needs to be done. There can be no tolerance for those who act out or for those so full or rage they imagine threats others must kill. Truth is always a third way.
