      Yeh it’s going to be every voter and non voter getting drafted so it’s really not a rational thing to wish for angry or otherwise.

      The mentality where you think people “deserve” things, I think it’s just irrational. If your goal in politics is to do best by all, then you’re working against your goal. If that’s not your goal, then it should be. Wishing harm on anyone is literally a last resort when there is no preferable option and where more good comes out of that harm than bad - otherwise it’s an ethical negative. It’s alarming to me how few people seem to have thought through that logic.

      Nah, if the US starts a world war it will suck for literally everyone, not just those voters. You’re likely to be drafted too, regardless of where you live.

        I’m past concern and moved into acceptance. Spent my life working in community affairs and human rights and always voted with everyone’s well being in mind, and since I have no control over the current situation, I accept whatever as long as I get to watch his voters eat shit. I’m tired of caring. It’s gotten us nowhere. My “liberal” coworkers still ignore boycotts and voting. My black and Mexicano bosses tout Trumpisms. My “liberal” family keeps ignoring the coup. I’m done caring. It’s clear we are getting what we deserve as a nation. I am sure you feel differently, and that’s also valid. But, for me? I’m here for the chaos, atp.
