    Can we really reach MAGA racists with memes like this? Where’s the conversation about actually helping them awaken?

      After ten years of maga, and thirty or so years of watching R point in exactly this direction with every conservative policy or position, and every argument I ever had that included being called a “bleeding heart” or worse, I’m just here to wait for us to get it over with already, and then warm my hands on the smoldering wreckage of our nation that remains when Trump is done wrecking it.

      Eventually I will die of old age while continuing to give no shits about maga or anything they have brought upon themselves while consigning the rest of us to the dystopian hell hole they cheered and voted for. The nation will still be recovering from Trump though, if we’re lucky.

      They’ve wrecked the lives of countless people with their slavish devotion to a candidate who embodies the worst of what US culture has ever had to offer. Some of those people are people I love and care about, but they are all people.

      And on top of it all - they still have no objection to where things are headed until it affects them personally.

      Fuck every last Trump voter. I’m very happy to let better, less jaded people than I am go the Andrew Johnson route. (not that I think it was a good idea the first time either) I don’t need or want any maga in my life.
