(736 posts)When the trumpers turn BLM in to Blue Lives Matter and refuse to admit that cops are killing black people for no reason, it's a line I just can't cross. Was George Floyd just a media-hyped event?
When the cameras went in to the detention centers at the border and we saw cages with a dozen kids in them with no parents in sight, was that just a media-hyped event? Should I be ok that their perspective is that we SHOULD separate kids from their parents?
Trumps thousands of lies. Is it all just a media-hyped event that I should get past?
When trump got us out of the Paris Climate Accord and rolled back regulations that protected our land, water and air, was that all just media-hyped and I should just go back to sleep?
When he did ZERO to lead the nation out of our Covid pandemic and 240K+ have died, is it really all just the media?
When my family and former friends support this stuff, how can I look the other way and NOT think less of them?
