Trump voters are such pieces of shit. The sooner they end up in his camps and drafted to die, the better.

I think the wise thing altogether is to avoid putting people in camps.

Yeh it's going to be every voter and non voter getting drafted so it's really not a rational thing to wish for angry or otherwise.

The mentality where you think people "deserve" things, I think it's just irrational. If your goal in politics is to do best by all, then you're working against your goal. If that's not your goal, then it should be. Wishing harm on anyone is literally a last resort when there is no preferable option and where more good comes out of that harm than bad - otherwise it's an ethical negative. It's alarming to me how few people seem to have thought through that logic.

I'm not a pacifist. Save your sermon?

It's not a hobby. It's not subjective. Something is either good or bad, in total (some real number value on that axis, to be specific). The kind of thing you said is literally a cop-out of confronting that. The need to put some "ist"/"ism" label on it just avoids dealing with the question entirely. That's not the definition of pacifism, what I said is the framework to situationally decide whether pacifism or something else is more ethical.

You would know.

Nah, if the US starts a world war it will suck for literally everyone, not just those voters. You're likely to be drafted too, regardless of where you live.

I'm past concern and moved into acceptance. Spent my life working in community affairs and human rights and always voted with everyone's well being in mind, and since I have no control over the current situation, I accept whatever as long as I get to watch his voters eat shit. I'm tired of caring. It's gotten us nowhere. My "liberal" coworkers still ignore boycotts and voting. My black and Mexicano bosses tout Trumpisms. My "liberal" family keeps ignoring the coup. I'm done caring. It's clear we are getting what we deserve as a nation. I am sure you feel differently, and that's also valid. But, for me? I'm here for the chaos, atp.

Yeah, we saw similar with the whole US COVID-19 experience, everyone suffers for their choices.
