We have to try to forgive, or at least be civil with, the former trump acolytes otherwise we could push them further into trump's hate hole. Regardless of politics we as humans often make stupid mistakes from time to time.

One thing I learned from non-violent communication is that we are not responsible for their feelings. To worry that we might say something that can push them further down a rabbit hole is them weaponizing their emotions. We should treat them with greater civility than they showed here, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't tell them how odious their politics are.

It's ok to chuckle at them from our corner of the ininternet. Don't worry, they won't see it.

I strongly suspect someone has informed her that her screenshot is making the rounds, even if she hasn't visited this website specifically.

I don't know. We seem to be aware of their screed. I'm sure they're aware of ours.
