I don’t usually pay attention to whichever instance I’ve drifted into from all, so if you see me in a weird place, that’s why!

    Fuck this.

    Let’s be real bare bones about this.

    In Tennessee, 2 million people voted for Trump.

    1 million voted for Harris.

    The vibe is, “Those 1 million people can’t fix their situation so they should be just as fucked as the other 2.”

    And that’s wrong. It’s wrong to condemn whole swaths of humanity based on where they live, but even if you’re dick enough to say “FAFO” when real humans suffer, you shouldn’t be willing to throw your own allies under the bus based on arbitrary lines on the ground.

    And I’m a first responder, don’t talk to me about compassion fatigue, it’s not an excuse not to help someone who needs it.
