    We are justifiably angry at Republicans like this because they are enthusiastically a part of the boot that we are being crushed beneath. However, there is a distinction between wanting to be free of the boot, and wanting to be the boot.

    It feels cathartic to be mean to people like this, and let’s be real, this level of unkindness is but a fraction of the cruelty they inflict upon us. However, this path does not lead to justice. I don’t want to be like them — not even a little bit.

      you are who you associate yourself with. if you associate with pedophiles and rapists, you will be mistaken to be a pedophile and rapist.
