Funny how he thinks he never physically hurt someone when he funding turned off by him at USAID literally fed starving babies. He thinks bc he doesn’t lay hands on someone directly he isn’t responsible for the harm he causes. Thats why tried to defend dictators and blame their public servants.

Do we ever get any of them deprogrammed? We can’t erase people’s hate by shaming or ignoring them. We do that by connecting with them on some level (builds trust) and then educating them.

Things have not been normal lol. We fought and I have cut the hard core MAGA family members out but some are reasonable people who’ve been brainwashed and yes…they have hate. Unfortunately that gets exacerbated by the brainwashing. We still need to connect with those who are reachable. Otherwise how

This is why left and right fight so much. I’m just as enraged as you but I sat with my open minded Trump supporter family recently and spoke politics with them. They are nervous now. Sometimes we need to sit with these people to spread our message. Some are unreachable, not all. We need as many ppl

I’m starting to wonder if these Christian nationalists actually believe in God or not. I feel like if they did believe in God and heaven, then they would walk with Jesus, but the fact is they don’t. So it makes me wonder if they actually believe in their Lord and Savior or if it’s all just for show.

Watched the Fox interview with Zelensky and cried. He’s talking about human rights and Brett Beyer focuses on money, even after Zelensky explains the money. People are dying and Zelensky is right Russia won’t stop at Ukraine. An ocean didn’t save us from WWII and we didn’t have drone warfare then.
