Nnno. No. See, as much as I agree that they're wildly mislead and that does absolve them of some of the malice, the only way they'll ever change is to face the reality of what their actions result in.
What about their families? Their children? People who had nothing to do with any of this and are just along for the ride? Wishing harm on red states and counties is cringe.
I'm simply glad they're getting exactly what they asked for. "Less harm" was an option, and they knew that. They chose otherwise.
They did not know that, obviously, or they would have voted differently.
Nobody was unwillingly unaware of what the GOP wants/does. They chose to insulate themselves in right wing media, they chose to ignore the literal millions of people telling them what Trump wants to do, they chose to ignore Trump saying what he wants to do, they chose to ignore Project 2025 which was plastered everywhere for months prior to the election.
There is no more benefit of the doubt for these people until they fucking admit what theyve done, and they don't seem to be willing to do so. So fuck them.
