    “I only reluctantly support the guy saying he will be a dictator, therefore don’t lump me in with the people who happily support him.” 🤦🏻‍♂️

      Many of them claim they “have” to vote for donnie because, yadda yadda, LeftTooExtreme, LeftTooWoke, because of their 401K, gas prices, greedflation being called “inflation” (and blamed on Biden, WTAF), or some combo of these. They just don’t care if fascism is a risk, because they think they won’t be at risk or may even benefit from the fascism.

      What else to call this but a lack of empathy…

        Lack of foresight? Ignorance? Delusion that they will definitely be in the “in-group?”

      Whatever.

      Feel superior to Trump supporters. Know you’re right and they’re definitely wrong. Be morally superior to them because you have a connection to reality they definitely and obviously don’t have. Your logic over their intuition; your facts over their emotions, your reality over their delusion.

      When they vote for a fascist dictator that throws American democracy back to a state of nature because they feel marginalized and unheard and seek…well, they are…thanks to your bullshit stereotypes.

      Only the most morally degrading cowardice for liberals and conservatives alike.
