I'm not a trump supporter and many of the people who work at the mill won't be.
Why are you calling it a sub? Bringing your Reddit zero sum mindset over here, I see.
It's great that they had to sell the mill sure, but the person saying that he hopes it goes further and the mill closes and everyone loses their jobs, is a objectively terrible person and has a terrible take. Downvote me all you want, if you support saying that the mill should close just to spite people who don't even own the mill anymore, you're not a good person and you're definitely not better than the trash who vote for trump.
I love how you’re attacking a person for a comment about a sawmill they didn’t shut down, and a president they didn’t vote for. All while completely ignoring the two parties in this article that have any true fault.
Apologists like you, are just as bad as the supporters, since you share the insatiable drive to find some other party to blame.
Also this is lemmy, if you were so into semantics, you would have thought about your comments a little more carefully. People who throw around the “you belong on Reddit” insult are just as pathetic as the trolls that are still over on Reddit. They have a slew of “communities “ if that’s what you prefer; for apologists. Why not check it out?
i wasn't attacking you personally, nor did i anywhere imply that you are a trump voter. so you should check yourself before you start accusing people of the "reddit mindset" while throwing around ad hominems.
the question of whether these people should lose their jobs-- well, if that's what it takes to make people realize what an unmitigated disaster trump is, then yes. absolutely. if that doesn't work, where do we go from there? martial law? security checkpoints? "papers, please"? we've already got american citizens not only losing their jobs, but being kidnapped and thrown into unmarked vans and deported to 3rd world countries they've never even been to.
so to reiterate my main point: fuck trump, and fuck trump voters. i'm glad they're suffering
