One year since the coup. My hatred and anger have not subsided, in fact I'm a ball of rage now

67. Tell it!

I have only one Trumpster in my family and she never mentions him or anything political at all really. I think she knows better.

She's hosting Thanksgiving this year and I always cook the turkey (on the BBQ grill) wherever we all are. I don't anticipate any political drama that day, but I know a lot of people here have to put up with listening to or confronting RW family members, remaining silent or just not having Thanksgiving with them altogether and that's sad.

I'm in my early 60's and I cannot remember a time when the country was this divided, even in the 60's and 70's which I remember fondly as a hopeful time in spite of whatever confrontations occurred.

We may have to look back to the Civil War to find a situation similar to this one in terms of hate and polarization.
