Of course they do. Have you heard how many gays, trans people, brown people, Muslims, foreigners, and women :crosses himself: they have to include in the voter rolls and allow to give a voice to? Democracy is DEI!!!
No, that's not education. It's punishment. You desire Schadenfreude, so you want them to feel bad for having done something you didn't like.
Gotta agree with Dann, here. I don't want them to suffer for the sake of laughing at them. I want them to have what alchys call that Moment of Clarity, and they should damn well feel stupid and betrayed. But we should not be happy to piss on their graves like their leader is happy to do, because we are better than that.
You're right, I won't be happy to piss on his grave. I will be happy to dance, piss AND ◊◊◊◊ on his grave!
Thoughts and tariffs.
Why do you imagine they will ever realize that? They had four years of trump in power and decided they were fine with giving him another four. US voters have consistently voted for the Republicans time and again even when it was plainly against their interest to do so. Attempts to pander to them by the Democrats have persistently failed so maybe a good hard metaphorical slap in the face is all that's left to do. No more sympathy, no more trying to win them round just straight up tell them 'you ◊◊◊◊◊◊ around and found out' when they come crying about how things have gone so wrong for them.
They knew what they voted for, and most of the buyer's remose seems to be about leopards eating the wrong peoples' faces. No sympathy.
Ok. Their feelings can and should be hurt, and in spades. They should feel the full force of the consequences of their decisions, no argument. But for those that have a change of heart, and put their children's benefit above their own ◊◊◊◊◊◊ up sense of being patriots or whatever they think they were, welcome them to Team Pro-America, sez me. People can change. Sometimes they just gotta take one on the chin themselves.
No. ◊◊◊◊ them. They are unforgiven. Period!
Every day there's a new atrocity. ◊◊◊◊ them.
I for one am willing to give people a chance who indicate *actual* remorse and learning. Whining and venting about inconvenient consequences is not the same thing as repentance. For now, I'll wait and see how many of the five stages these guys go through before they cycle back to denial as opposed to progressing to acceptance.
If they REALLY want to benefit themselves and their children, they should emigrate to Canada, or Mexico, or some other first world country that is not at war with two-thirds of its own citizens. Because no matter how sorry they are now, in today's America, they won't be accepted and they won't succeed at repatriation.
Better yet they get on Mush's rockets to Mars.
That's pretty much the same as staying in the USA. A couple of years of sensory deprivation, weightlessness and separation from friends and family without any chance of rescue. Accompanied by the reasonable probability of a very lonely death that nobody else will be able to prevent.
Not expecting Canada to be welcoming yanks of any flavor right about now. Nor Greenland. Nor Mexic. Nor most Central American ◊◊◊◊ hole countries, as i believe they like to refer to them as. Maybe Argentina is nice?
