(5,379 posts)The only reason most of them are remorseful is because they are just realizing they are going to get screwed right along with the rest of us.
They were all fine and dandy with the Nazis until they realized immigrants, people of color, women who believe in equal rights, and LGBTQI weren't the only ones who were going to suffer.
Not one of them can say they didn't know precisely who Trump and his thugs were. It was spelled out for them in terms someone with only a basic grade school education could understand, but they chose to ignore it because "owning the libs," was more important to them. They voted for him of their own free will, so whatever bad happens to them now is of their own making not ours. We tried to warn them and they gave us the finger.
So I feel the same amount of empathy for them as the majority of them feel for us which is 0. If there are any of them who are willing to actually apologize to all those they wanted to see harmed, actually mean it, and are willing to step up to at least try and reverse some of the damage that's different.
To the ones who only are just whining because they got hoisted on their own petard. They can go eat orange shit.
