31. We have spent some 40+ years reaching out to them (in all their various iterations),

taking the high road, told to try empathizing with them, we just didn't understand their concerns. And what have we gotten in return? Being mocked and demonized for being kind, decent, law abiding citizens who love this country. Well, no more. I, for one, am done. It's time to get down and dirty. It's time to insist those maga idiots who voted for t and hate America so much they love dictators around the world rather than America either start attempting to reach out to us (but prepare to be looked on with distrust and rebuffed), or move to one of those dictator loving countries they seem to admire so much.
I am polite to them if I have to interact with them at work, but off work- no.
They can go rot in whatever hell they believe in for all I care.
