(624 posts)The one with "one more time" at the bottom? Sadly, that's exactly how I feel about it. Touch my earned benefits just one more time...but I'm not handy with memes or I'd make one and post on FB. Funny, I just though of this earlier today and logged on to find this post.
I agree with your sentiments. I have really poured it on them throughout this campaign on FB, blocked quite a few, argued with untold numbers, alienated friends and family alike. Don't care. Every word I uttered turned out to be true so far, and there has been no shortage of material to work with.
I finally wore them all down, and the ones who are left just let me be me. Thank God. Though I did notice yesterday one of my extended family members made a swipe I just know was intended at me, but on their own page. I just ignored it, for the sake of peace, but took note. Sadly, the Trumpkins are in a bad place, so they have nowhere to go now but start lashing out. I truly hope to serve them up the treasonous shit sandwich they so richly deserve.
Beyond that, these asshole Republicans who have wrought every bit of misery on real, living Americans to satisfy the business community are finding out a few things. Paul Ryan is Reagan 2.0 or actually worse. I'm not giving another dime or inch. I'm speaking out. To my friends, to my community, to my neighbors. To my elected officials. I call them. I write them. I answer their surveys (just did one the other day).
It is truly different this time.
