Had some idiot almost run me over with his car. While I was on the sidewalk. Bellowed at him, and waited for the walk signal. Shit biscuit sat there and went 'wah wah wah' and mumbled like a mental patient till I got across the road (I was grinning at him, made sure I wasn't going to get pinned).
Yeah I don't know what MAGA people folks are around, but I'm not seeing any of this in my family or my area of the country. They love Trump and vote R no matter what. Their beliefs haven't changed, nothing has changed. They literally don't even know anything bad he or the GOP have done. If you confront them with anything, they dismiss it. If it's so irrefutable (like gas prices) they can't dismiss it, they'll change the subject. They don't care. I've heard *zero* criticism of Trump from them.
one of them last week said to me that trump might be the worst president we've ever had. i said he'd still vote for him. he said yeah. i dont know what to do.
The best thing you can do is to ignore them. They’re stuck on Trump as a form of blackmail. Do what I say or I’ll burn it all down. If we all stop paying attention they’ll wear themselves out.
The opposite of empathy is disgust and distain, and repulsion. If there is a single word for all in one I don’t know it yet. I saw someone say hate but that’s a bit different, that’s the opposite of acceptance.
Some did. Took it as proof covid was a leftist plot because it seemed to target predominently magas. Ofcourse, this was just a minority, there are extremists and extremely dumb people on all sides.
So it was easier for them to arrive at "engineered virus" rather than vaccines work. I don't know how some of you cope given what you're sharing your country with. Then again, I do believe the stupid was engineered.

I work with some who will quote you a bunch of total nonsense in his favor that didn't happen.

In a "I ain't got no dick' muscle car, yet.
daianaaaa
Can someone explain the meme?

“So, if he were to run again but his opponent was a boring, non-white woman, who would you vote for?”
DocFunkenstein
Don't kid yourselves.
They're still going to vote (R) all down the ballot. Religiously so.
TZO2k15
And if we voted with the same certainty and unity, we would not be in this mess...
TripleDane
oh they absolutely will - married into a conservative family

Because they’d still vote for him

Then there’s all the assholes who couldn’t be bothered to vote: it wouldn’t have made a difference…

There’s nothing to do, you can’t force people to make good decisions

Smack him upside the head.

great idea except this is an old man who is a lawyer, so... might need to go back to the drawing board
hairytrigga
Tell him there's a wasp on his head then smack him.

No sympathy. This is what they voted for.

Is it possible to do negative sympathy?
misanthropicbob
Yeah, they have to SHOW sympathy to get it out of negatives. So they're screwed.

Isn't that what hate is? I mean you'd wish them ill rather than well if you hate them, right?
NonstopRampage
As an aside, I wish we'd stop confusing their bigotry with hate. Hate isn't an evil thing. We SHOULD hate these vile monstrous wretches.
HandFireWeapon
Absolutely true, hatred of people hurting others is love for those that are hurt.

WorkerLurker
To expand there is good hate (Nazis, pedophiles, rapists), and bad acceptance (same examples)
vidmagnuson
Ire. Not quite hate, definitely more than simple disapproval.
WorkerLurker
Except you can be repulsed without anger
Clockworkdancerobot
Like how many were during the early days of Covid. Not masking, not distancing, not staying home.
WoTLert
And then blaming the 'radicul left' for engineering a virus that killed predominantly conservatives.

I don't even know if you're joking or not.
