Anyone Care to Wager How Long It Will Take? [View all]

How long do you think it's going to take for the pitchforks to come out once...

1. the effect of havinbg lost Christmas bonuses really hits home.
2. they see what a 25% universal tariff does to inflation.
3. they to lose their healthcare and get priced out of the market for their medications.
4. their children no longer have IEP's or 504's or school lunches.
5. an entire segment of the workforce is deported and we're facing...
A) astronomical prices at the grocery store and food shortages.
B) construction coming to a grinding halt due to not having the workers.

Yeah, MAGAt's Fucked Around, and now, they are going to Find Out!

Most of us have MAGAt's in our families or among our friends, whether you continue interacting with them or not is entirely your choice. Each case is different. Some are redeemable; some are not. It's up to each one of us to discern what we're willing to put up with for our own mental and emotional health. Whatever you decide, no need for apologies.

I just want to send everyone on DU warm wishes and support for you to do what you need to for your own peace this holiday season.
