This type of thinking is called being honest and objective. The type of thinking you’re doing is called magical thinking. Where you believe that what’s happening can be wished away by pretending it’s not as prevalent as it truly is.

I don’t believe I’m doing magical thinking, I just try to stay true to what is right in my mind. And pinpointing the death of one on the collective of another when that exact mindset fuels nothing but more hate and rage doesn’t seem right to me.

Like I said

CASE AND POINT ā˜šŸ¼

What exactly did you say? Are you blaming it on me because I support single payer healthcare? Are you blaming it on my neighbor who supports the EPA? Are you blaming it on my mailman who supports same sex marriage?

Are you blaming it on Liz Cheney for calling out autocratic behavior?

So is calling Hitler behavior Hitler behavior.

You can’t say ā€œthe other side is an existential threat causing mayhem and murderā€ and then get upset at them for saying mean things about your side

Do I need to Bert and Ernie this for everybody?
