If I have any Trump supporting acquaintances ever show a sliver of remorse to me, I'm going to bury them in ridicule. I know it's not effective and is counter productive, but I can say this knowing 1. It's never going to happen and 2. Idgaf and I'm taking my shots when I get them, because fuck these people all to Hell. I've already cut out a brother, I will happily burn these connections.
Nah, don’t mock the remorseful it’ll dig them in. Mock the unrepentant
It’s frustrating, but you’re right.
I know. I work surrounded by trumpers while being a semi passing trans woman. I hate them. I want to rage at them. And also I need to stomach my emotions because I’m the minority here. I’ve known my fair share of hillbillies, and I’m the only trans person they’ll ever know. So yeah I’ll have to act the model and they get to vice signal in front of me all day long and it isn’t fair and I hope that when we die we have to stand before a god and defend our actions.
But yeah I have to be willing to accept remorse and forgive those who repent and change. But I don’t know how I can ever trust them after what they’ve decided to put me and my people through. People like me will die because their feelings got hurt. And that’s not even something new.
Oh honey, I’m so sorry.
