Hey everyone this is a shameless plug but I’m starting a YouTube channel and it would really help if I could get some people watching my stuff while the channel grows.
You mean, you will not work together with anyone, who thinks differently than you. And you dare to call yourself a democrat, I guess….
Why do you think your worldview is the right one, by the way?
“I won’t work towards oppressing other people’s human rights”
“Omg, people can’t even have a different opinion than you”.
This isn’t Pistachio Ice cream vs Salted Caramel Rory, this is systemic human oppression. This isn’t Which Season of Orange Is The New Black Do You Like Most or Which Member Of One Direction Is The Cutest, it is the lives and deaths of innocent people and being on the one that chooses to think of ALL human life as valuable may not be the “right worldview” to you. But many of us will choose our fellow humans every day rather than the erratic whims of a fascist cheetoh who has no idea what he is doing and literally tweets national security information from a personal Twitter account.
I want to talk for a moment about the infamous Trump Happy New Year tweet. We’re all familiar with it. It went like this:
“Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don’t know what to do. Love!”
The general reaction could best be summed up as, “What an asshole!” But I’m glad he tweeted this, because it really clarifies things. Trump views everyone who didn’t and/or doesn’t support him as a conquered enemy. This ought to put to rest any talk of Trump “uniting the country” or “giving him a chance.” In fact, you know what, Donald?
If you are going to treat me like a conquered enemy, then I have to assume I am now living in an occupied country. And that means that from me, you get:
* no benefit of the doubt
* no cooperation
* no respect
and
* no legitimacy.
That tweet frees us all from any remaining scruples any of us might have had about rejecting his legitimacy and authority. You can’t be someone’s “enemy” and be their president at the same time.
Thank you for putting into words what was skeeving me the fuck out about that tweet, in a manner more eloquent than the “dear non-faith-specific God, he sounds like a literal supervillain out of central casting” that was springing to mind.
