Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Ehh... it all depends on how negatively they viewed the person. Sure, empathy is automatic, but so is blinding rage. These piles of shit are ACTIVELY destroying the country and ACTIVELY trying to scapegoat trans people while ACTIVELY brainwashing everyone they can against good policy. They are the epitomy of deplorable.
Was he a human? Yes. Though he's a vile, disgusting piece of shit of a human. It's like watching a murderer on death row. Sure, I don't think anyone should be proud that they're gleeful, but I can understand why their brain goes to happy thoughts instead of being overpowered by empathy.
I'd probably be in your guys' boat a bit grossed out at it if I wasn't an old fuck already used to seeing gross stuff. Largely from wanting to be a doc at one point in the past, but I noped the fuck out when I realized I'd have to do ER time and deal with people being gravely injured who most probably don't deserve it.
