Nah, he had access to the same information as the rest of us, but his obsession with Trump was more important to him than his family. He worked hard to earn his death, and his family should resent him for the rest of their lives for abandoning them.
And so should you. If Trump had started rounding up and murdering immigrants and dissidents, he would have cheered for it. Don't deny it, he literally died for Trump. He was a bad and stupid person, who died because of his own poor choices.
It’s wild. Americans being unwilling to enact even SOCIAL consequences on MAGA garbage is exactly why they are where they are. These people need to be cut off without a second thought.
I'm glad no one you cared about died because they got suckered into following a cult. I'm glad you don't have to wonder if they'll get hurt because they've been brainwashed. I'm glad you don't have to wonder who fed them such poisonous lies, and fight to try and cure it.
Cool. Very noble and high minded, aren’t you?.
People like you are the reason the US is where it is.
Yes... too many people with empathy and beliefs rooted in complex first hand experience. That's why the U.S. is where it is...
Definitely nothing to do with people jumping to conclusion driven by black and white thinking
Cool. You live in your grey area where Nazis have some good qualities and maybe you can reach them if you overlook the fact that they’re absolute garbage. That’s definitely stopped fascists before.
I don't want to accuse you of pulling something out of your ass just to box me into a false dichotomy, but I also don't recall typing any of that?
Okay, so you just typed some non sequitur and expected that nobody would assume you were responding to the substance of the discussion taking place? Rad.
No, I was responding to the discussion about losing a loved one who was brainwashed. Based on the full discussion it's unclear if he even supported Trump or was just brainwashed by homeopathic and or antivax propaganda, which is not exclusive to one political party.
You're getting oddly defensive about this though. Tubular. 🤙🏄♀️
Pretty fucked up your making fun of someone who lost a loved one. Completely ignorant to think something like that couldn't happen to you, unless you don't have loved ones, dick.
When maga stop wanting me dead I'll start caring when they die.
Preach.
I’m not making fun of anyone, I’m criticizing someone. For the things they’re saying.
Does experiencing grief (even for science-denying fascist enablers) equal immunity from criticism where you’re from?
Never said that but keep shadowboxing comments online to feel good about yourself you fukin loser
Don't you know that the US and Canada are twins? Don't you see that your country is going the exact same way ours is? Those are your friends and family who are reading the same trash, maybe wedging its way into the same cracks in their logic that killed someone I loved.
If it hasn't happened, it will. And I hope when it does, you try to save them too.
Yes, I know that your inaction is likely to make this our problem eventually too.
And when it does, any “friends and family” espousing that garbage gets cut off AT BEST. If they’re fortunate, they’ll get to keep all their teeth. And if they decide that conspiracy theories are more attractive than, you know, staying alive, good riddance.
Looking through your comment history, you seem to make a career out of blaming and mocking victims. I have to wonder who hurt you so badly that you spend all day hurting other people. How does using your trauma like it's a keyboard assault weapon help your cause?
MAGA aren't victims. They're the perpetrators. Fuck's sake, these ignorant bigots have agency.
“Victims.”
You’re confusing laziness and complacency with helplessness.
Who hurt you? lol
Really? You met him?
He kissed your head and grinned when you talked about your favorite superheroes? He picked you up and swung you around on his arms with his own kids, singing songs about monkeys in trees?
He held you when you cried? He held your mother when she cried?
You make a lot of assumptions for some faceless ass on the deep dark depths of the internet.
Hitler loved dogs and children. He also slaughtered millions of them.
I didn't know your uncle personally, but I know he was a MAGA who was so dug in that he literally put his obsession for Trump ahead of his love for his family, and died for it, abandoning his 4 kids. Anyone who puts their politics or religion ahead of their love for their own children is a sociopathic loser.
What else do I need to know about him? Nothing he possibly did is going to redeem him for being an unapologetic MAGA sociopath to the very end.
You and people like you are the reason maga rose to power to begin with. But go ahead, Keep posting about your moral superiority online, I'm sure that will fix everything.
You're an asshole
Calling someone you've never met a sociopath while demonstrating a complete lack of empathy is certainly ironic.
Health conspiracies predate trump and will continue long after him.
They weren't always right coded either. The granola health nuts were left leaning conspiracy nuts for decades.
Lot of assumptions. First and foremost that he liked Trump.
I could make a lot of assumptions about you.
