      Nnno. No. See, as much as I agree that they’re wildly mislead and that does absolve them of some of the malice, the only way they’ll ever change is to face the reality of what their actions result in.

        What about their families? Their children? People who had nothing to do with any of this and are just along for the ride? Wishing harm on red states and counties is cringe.

          What about my family, my children? Why is the onus of acceptance on me, a member of the group they revile, and not on the people who vocally want to put me in a camp? Sure I’m better than them, for example I don’t on a personal level wish most of them any ill, but “wanting them to see the result of their actions” isn’t exactly round them up and deport them!

          Fuck’s sake, get some perspective.

          I’m simply glad they’re getting exactly what they asked for. “Less harm” was an option, and they knew that. They chose otherwise.

            They did not know that, obviously, or they would have voted differently.

              Nobody was unwillingly unaware of what the GOP wants/does. They chose to insulate themselves in right wing media, they chose to ignore the literal millions of people telling them what Trump wants to do, they chose to ignore Trump saying what he wants to do, they chose to ignore Project 2025 which was plastered everywhere for months prior to the election.

              There is no more benefit of the doubt for these people until they fucking admit what theyve done, and they don’t seem to be willing to do so. So fuck them.

                The embarrassing thing is wishing harm on working class people instead of building solidarity

                  But… they wished the harm on themselves. That’s the whole point, that letting them suffer the consequences of their actions is the result of their own damned actions.

                    But they didn’t. Shelby County, TN, which is where this plant is, is a blue county that overwhelmingly voted against Trump and the Republicans. It was 36.42% Trump, 61.80% Harris in this county. Shelby county is majority black, and you’re over here giggling that these people are breathing in carcinogens from an AI data center. Hate poisons your mind.

      If you want to bend over and accept the consequences of the idiots that don’t give a shit about anyone but themselves, then that’s fine, but don’t lump the rest of us in.
