Invade Mexico, invade greenland, rename the gulf..... hello... he's bonkers, what the fuck are we doing letting this shit back in power....
- Well, you see. We let those willfully ignorant fucks in the bible belt vote for some reason.
  
  I've never seen a more vibrant walking, talking example of the need for the 25th amendment.
  
  I low key wonder if that's the Republican plan. Just 25th amendment him and let Vance takeover. Vance pardons Trump who goes on Fox News weekly to yell about Mexicans or whatever.
  
  We'll have a Theilocracy then.
- They'll 25th amendment him throw Vance in and we'll be a fascist oligarchy before March Madness.
  Not that we're miles away now.
- You are radicalizing your former allies and neighbors, that is what you are doing.
  
  You
  lol get fucked with that
  
  You said we, this is a normal response that isn’t super accusatory or aggressive. It just sounds it because you’re interpreting it as directed towards you the individual, but it’s for “you all,” which is the standard way to respond to a comment in the first person plural
  
  In my original comment, I specify. He's bonkers is referring to Trump, the actor of those referred to actions.
  In your reply, you state 'YOU', as if the people against this / and? the people pushing it are responsible for that radicalization, and I take no responsibility for that shitstain's actions against our allies.
  You could have easily been more clear by stating 'conservatives' or Trump supporters or - if you meant a blanket indictment - you idiots who didn't punish the insurrection / pay taxes to a corrupt system of governing etc., hence my dismissal of your reply.
  Vague aspersions cast without insight generally get that response.
  
  Thanks for taking the time to re-reply, even after your initial zinger got modded away just to demonstrate to the people that even when the average American says WE, they just mean.... ME.
  Not much I can do to make my point more clearly than that.
  chefs kiss
  
  life's full of fun ironies, if we can find ways to appreciate them. a hard lift sometimes.
  best of luck!
  
  quod erat demonstrandum
  
  ipso facto vis-a-vis
  shut the fuck up
