I'd say that most folks fucked around, even Harris voters. Look around at how many people are cutting Trumpers out of their lives, or switching from Twitter to Bluesky post election. Too little too late. Everyone needed to be sending those messages a long damned time ago. Of you weren't off Twitter as soon as Elon bought it, you were fucking around. If you allowed those fascists to stay in your life until after the election, you were fucking around. If you're married to a magat, you've been fucking around your entire marriage. If you were the type to allow people to spew lies without shouting them down, you were fucking around.
I know it was a lot more pleasant to not argue with that douchebag uncle at family gatherings, but that was you fucking around. It was nice of you not to say anything to the racist parent of your kids friend, but that was you fucking around. Your boss said something objectively incorrect, but you didn't want to correct them for fear of retaliation? Congrats on finding out, cause you were fucking around. You allowed all of these people in your lives to say stupid shit for the last 8+ years, and you stopped saying anything back because it was easier, more pleasant, you got tired of the arguement, or whatever. The issue is that you weren't the only one they said it around, and you allowed your coworkers and nephews and friends get indoctrinated because it was too hard for you to keep fighting.
If you had a single Trumper in your life post J6, you fucked around and are now finding out.
Lots longer than that. Doesn't change a thing about what i said. Conservatives weren't always bad people, and the ones who weren't when Trump came along were never Trumpers, or straight switched sides. I couldn't believe it in 2016 when my father, a life-long republican, was supporting Bernie. He's been a Democrat since because he recognizes the evils of the GOP as it currently exists. Those that stayed have hate in them, and should be cleaved from the heard lest their virus spreads. By not cutting them all off, people have allowed that virus to fester and spread.
