    As a leftist, I’m on board with this sentiment. But as an ex-right-winger, I know this would exclude me from my current community. We should allow space for growth and reconciliation, but if you still support Trump and the Republicans at this point, fuck you.

      I agree, but if you voted for him the last election it becomes harder for me. The first one, ya you wanted to stick it to status quo. I get it, not support it. Hillary did suck. The second time it is hard but at least Biden one. But after all the shit, lies, rape, epstein, COVID, fraud, impeachments, obvious corruption…and still support him. That’s tough. It is like a Nazi in 1946. Redemption at that point will be hard earned only.

      Growth. Something anyone that’s still a Trump supporter, or in my opinion still were during the 2024 election, are incapable of. He was already a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist during the 2024 election. Anyone that voted for him in that election is a trashcan garbage piece of trash.

      Reconciliation. Something anyone still supporting him is in no way interested in.

      You can’t reach people that don’t want to be reached. And at this point they don’t deserve the effort.

        Yup.

        I forget where I learned this, but about 30% of Germans supported hitler until his cold blooded killing of hitler.

        There are people who cannot be reached, and should be shunned by society.

          Those numbers were still that high even well into the 1950s. Even after Germany had been invaded, conquered, and literally divided in two, even after millions of German deaths. A good portion of the German population never gave up on Hitler.
