83. I feel like it doesn't matter, they've always been there

Mon Jun 1, 2026, 01:36 PM

I shoulda never moved back to the red area I'm from. But, family with special needs. So I've grown up with the rednecks who were happy to tell a ten year old girl atheist she's going to hell.
Now the maga crowd includes my own family. Even with special needs members, go figure. Forgive them? Hell, if they ever figure out how messed up they are, and what they've done, my forgiveness won't help much. They'll be crushed. But I don't expect it to happen to many of them. They'll just blame t-rump for lying to them and move on, as if the rest of us weren't screaming it the whole time. It's what they do. They have never cared what someone like me thinks. I just feel sorry for them being so damned foolish and easy to deceive. And I don't like them as people.
