there is no way around that. it is truth.

now, though i am registered republican, i DO NOT vote for evil, nihilistic monsters. therefore i DO NOT vote republican. one can be in a party and not support its current leadership.

to vote republican is to either a) willfully be an evil, nihilistic monster, or b) thoughtlessly empower evil, nihilistic monsters.

this truth is inescapable.

however, pride blinds. at some point one can no longer hide behind the defense of being merely thoughtless. a decision on case by case basis at the point of revelation, but once revealed it speaks to the character of the person.

eventually delusion falls to revelation. then judgment comes. thus self-delusion is no escape.
