Oh, we will all feel it. We already are. It's already hurt my family. Shit, the chances of my daughter ever living in this country again are low as hell, and that breaks my goddamned heart. We will ALL suffer because petty, vengeful morons with a fucking room-temp IQ decided it was more important to be performative and choose a path based on it hurting other people than to choose a path that might help all of us.
Thus, my hatred of them will burn for eternity. The harm they have done can never be undone.
And the only way they grasp it is when that harm comes to them. They are incapable of acknowledging that other human beings exist. Fuck 'em.
Also, I literally just got an email from the chair of the Travis County Democratic Party urging all of us to donate to our local food banks.
NO. DO NOT DO THIS. The American people learn only through this pain. Relieving the pain creates the illusion that we are not being gravely harmed. No. This has to hurt. A LOT. And yes, there will be collateral pain -- people who opposed this will suffer (see my point above -- everyone is already suffering). We need the fever to get hotter, not be controlled. The GQP has injected our society with a deadly disease. We need to not mask it with ibuprofen and shit. No, it needs to hurt. Then maybe -- MAYBE -- we'll actually go seek a cure for the disease.
