Washington Post: Donald Trump can be held civilly liable for the actions of the mob that attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, an appeals court ruled Friday in a long-awaited decision that could clear the way for lawsuits seeking financial damages from the former president.
Couldn’t have been that deep if they get detonated over a man like Trump
It sounds like you’re diminishing or don’t understand the level of polarity that this has created. My family are now Nazis. Not like a little bit. Not like an exaggeration. Like… “Restore power to the master race and eradicate everyone else”
These are not the people I grew up with. How do I break bread with these people? How do I share a table with enemies of democracy and the Constitution? How many screaming matches and fist fights (yes) do I get into calling them on their bullshit before I’m supposed to give up? How do I avoid taking about politics when they turn literally everything into a challenge or litmus test?
This is anecdotal, so take this all with a grain of salt, but there aren’t many people that I’ve talked to that don’t have a similar story. I just don’t think you’re giving enough credence to the damage that trump and the fascists are doing to the fabric of America.
No, my point is that Trump didn’t create these people. He didn’t somehow worm his way into their brains and force them to agree with fascist ideologies.
I’m sorry to say it but your family/chosen family chose their path, and it seems like they chose it over you. That’s all I meant by it couldn’t have been that deep, not that your side wasn’t deep. It seems like you were surrounded by bad people and just didn’t see it.
He has some hold over people and I’m serious. I’m not about policing my families thoughts and ideas but even if I were there the entire time to keep things in perspective there’s probably little I could have done.
They are still family but in the coming end times I’ll seriously reconsider ever trusting them with anything big or small.
I don’t believe that, I think that the same people who froth at the mouth over supporting Trump were always shitheads they just kept it under wraps. Trump gives them an excuse, he doesn’t control them. As evidenced by what happened on Jan. 6th.
