    There’s a lot of conservatives seemingly gearing up for war saying shit like “The left doesn’t understand what they’ve unleashed.”

    Conservatives get to kill who they want and the moment someone kills one of them they want to murder the left.

    (At least that’s what the bot-like conservative social media looks like.)

      Don’t take to much stock into it. I’m beginning to realize what it is about trump and the people who are seemingly nuts for him.

      They are attention seekers.

      Plain and simple. They are products of the “look at this small curated snibbit of my life! Isn’t it great! Don’t you wish you were me‽”

      And I’m finding out that that is a percentage of my countrymen, I am thoroughly uncomfortable with.

      They are children that never mentally progressed passed the “look what I can do!” phase of childhood.

      This is all performative for them.
