Almost no one's mind was ever changed via social media debate. You go on ahead and get frustrated and rage post and tell people "how wrong you are!" Your righteous anger might be slaked by doing so, but it won't matter unless you are counseling actual candidates.

I voted for Kamala Harris, someone who was "not as bad" as Trump, but still a pissy choice.
There's nothing I can do about this right now as there is nothing you can do about this.
Any emotional exasperation is wasted right now. I prefer to not give a shit about things I can't change. That's sane.

I could not possibly care less in this situation, not that what I care about matters at all when it comes to national policy.
Further, you care so much, but you also likely have zero ability to change it, so what's the point? Online rage for rage's sake?

We are still miles away from an authoritarian dictatorship. Further, it's unlikely that Trump can win again in 2028 unless the Supreme Court intervenes, which is a possibility. However, Trump is getting older and older and is more likely to die from natural causes if nothing else each year.

Some people are good investors and savers or inherited their wealth… and are responsible with it. Good for them.

I guess folks are just unthinkingly accepting that 600,000 claim.

Maybe those drug runners will start rethinking their strategy and perhaps halt shipments altogether. Either way, to me, fewer drug runners is a good thing.
And you know how much yours and my opinions matters? They don't, so we can disagree and nothing changes.

You know how NOT authoritarian the USA is right now? How far we are from being a dictatorship? I can type this...
"Donald Trump is the worst President and can come suck my cock."
...and armed men in vehicles will not be showing up to "black bag" me.

I understand exactly how it all works, probably better than you do.
And yet I still want the government to take less taxes from me and celebrate when it does so for anyone.

Shove your "reality check" up your own ass.
You know that there are insane people on both extremes, right? We're not just talking about people who take actual violent action against others, but people who want to suppress free speech, and even want to police thought, like on social media.

A page on the University of Colorado Boulder's website under its 'Pride Office' claims that misgendering people can be considered an act of violence.

I support lowering taxes anywhere for anyone as much as possible, so yeah, even for the rich if that's what it comes to.

Much of the "care" that appears on social media is performative at best, considering that 99.999% of people on social media ALSO have no control over this and wield zero influence. It's nearly all virtue signaling bullshit.

I did not say 600,000 was a lie. I said that I find that claim to be untrustworthy and likely false.
Further, it's far simpler to not care about things happening far, far away than it is to care about them, especially since there's nothing I can do about any of it.

I refuse to "feed bad" because of some policy over which I have zero control and from which I have zero benefit, but has potentially caused some problems for some people on the other side of the world.

You are still believing the claim that 600,000 children died as a result of our change in policy. There is every reason to be entirely skeptical of the claim.
I know how the progressive tax schedule works and I was right, barring any number of tax credits or deductions because... damn.
