I dunno if that's true and it's something I'll never understand because I was a dumb conservative generally until my early 20s but when deregulation and poo poo collapsed the economy it made me start questioning everything else I believed.

I was a huge libertarian idiot in high school then when I went into college I suffered a mental snap crackle pop and broke down and realized the only support structures I had were my family and without them I’d have been dead and it made me think maybe folks in that situation that don’t have family able and willing to care for them shouldn’t be left to die in the gutter

Was there some kind of airborne libertarian virus going around in 2008-10? I had the exact same mindset until my mom went on disability and I was like 'oooh poo poo, bad things can happen to us'.

lol NPR just ran a :discourse: segment about chuds who called the coronavirus a hoax and then died from it and how mean "the libs" were to their family and friends and how bad that was

don't deliberately spread misinformation that can kill people maybe?

Looking back I should have wore a mask in the beginning but I didn’t and perhaps I’m paying the price for it now but I know that if it was me that gave it to my wife I know that she forgives me and I know that God forgives me

I'm sure the libs making fun of them was worse than the death. Truly it would be a greater sin to put such evil people back in power, they must continue to support trump in these trying times.

What a great way to avoid any negative feelings or self responsibility. “I know my wife forgives me...”

gently caress you. “If my wife didn’t have a tube obstructing her ability to talk I’m sure she would say that she forgives me, that I’m the best husband ever, and I have always been right about every argument, and also I’m good in bed”

I don’t know why, but this one just rubbed me the wrong way. gently caress this guy.

anyway, it looks like this dude is sadly going to get better but on the plus side his wife is hosed. hopefully there's a chance of relapse and the virus comes out on top, but we'll see

i'm glad he's finally come around, but i'm not as willing to be magnanimous since it looks like he still supports trump so :shrug:

i'm not sure why the wife should be punished for this. maybe she is a chud but we can definitely, only, for sure know that the husband is a chud.

i want to believe they seemed more sympathetic to the chuds because that was the only way to get them on the show, but more than likely they're really angry at the lack of :decorum:

There's a reason very few countries have politicized "believing in the virus"

Most other countries have functional electoral systems where there's more to politics than making a specific other side lose.

And if it sounds like I'm blaming first-past-the-post voting for mass casualties then, yeah, I think I am

Chuds have put themselves in a situation where they "win" when people don't die from covid which means they will "lose". And since they are losing they are going to go insane and very shooty.

"Motherfucking, what's that big dragon shit? That orange motherfucker. Charizard."

Many conservatives got so used to lampooning the “tolerant left” and painting everyone to the left of them as naive, weepy, bleeding hearts that they are legitimately surprised and confused when they discover that a lot of leftists loving detest them, want them dead, and will laugh at them while they die.
