A small business owner who voted for Donald Trump recently posted a video on TikTok, pleading for help as crushing tariffs on China threatened to bankrupt his operation, which imports alloy wheels. His call for support, however, drew little sympathy from some fellow Americans.
“Votes have consequences,” he was told, with many comments from Twitter/X users relishing the notion that another MAGA voter was suffering because of their political choice. The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship.
Here’s a scenario. Imagine there’s a cop, who just had a divorce.
That cop will, later today, respond to a schizophrenic person in distress. The cop is armed.
You get the opportunity to tell that cop one thing before they go to respond to that call.
You can either say:
Or you can say:
Which of these responses is more likely to lead to a disabled person getting fucking murdered by an angry cop?
You’re showing greater sympathy for murderpigs now than you ever will for the left.
ok
Your previous comment advocated bootlicking.
no
Just tell the perfect holy officer what he wants to hear and he won’t murder you. If he does, it’s your fault.
not what i said
How is it any different at all? The officer isn’t the bad guy in your hypothetical. The guy being shot is. Just like when a fascist reacts to Renee Good’s murder with “well if she had just followed his orders she’d still be alive!”
Exactly like that in every last way.
you didn’t answer my question, you’re so focused on being right that you can’t see how wrong you are about pretty much everything you write.
