It probably sucks being trapped in a red state while having empathy.

Hopefully, enough of them gather and enact tangible change.

Otherwise nothing will change.

We try. We get shot & forgotten.

It definitely does suck very incredibly bad. I think there are things non-Southerners can do to help too of course but it’s more indirect.

You can replace "south" with "US" and it's just as true.

[–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

honestly very correct. someone else pointed out that even the worst of us states were only 70/30 maga.

call me a bleeding heart lib but i don’t celebrate the suffering of 10 people just because 7 of them asked for it. 🙃

The ones who voted for it, however...

I adovacte for their survival, recovery, repentance, and penance in proportion to the weight of their crimes.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

Sounds reasonable.

That's what we did after the Civil War, and look where that got us. 🤌🏼

~~Not even true lol~~ (You were alive immediately after the civil war wow!) Yeah and sadly slave owners literally received reparations when there should have been Nurembergs.

Ah, if only the MAGAts could read.

Why? So they could say you wish liberal cuck?"

~~Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like someone grunted those words into your mouth over and over and over so you could dribble them out after from the corners of that sycophantic, yearning smile, no? 🤷🏼‍♂️~~

NM. My bad. Misread. 😜

It's clearly not full of them though. It's full of human scum who do horrible shit on a daily basis and actively harm everyone in the process.

[–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 13 points 6 days ago

i think some people interpret “full of” differently and that’s a fair gripe to have with this post

as i said in the body text, feel free to swap in “has a lot of” if that’s more familiar language to you :)
