A co-worker accused me of “Trump derangement syndrome”, and I just started spitting out a list of “Yeah! Kinda like how US troops had Osama bin Laden derangement syndrome! Or how 1930s Jews had Hitler derangement syndrome! Or how Oklahoma City had Timothy McVey derangement syndrome! Or how Union forces had slavery derangement syndrome! …ya starting to understand how fucking stupid that sounds?”
…and no, it didn’t shut him up, he just deflected to another topic, but that’s about as close as you can get to progress when debating these fucking morons.

Conservatives don’t seem to understand that many of us “libtards” are better equipped to “swim” than they are.
We’re wealthier, better educated, healthier, tend to have more stable careers etc.
They’re free to harm themselves, but they hurt other vulnerable people too, and that’s what I cannot stand

in their fantasy world, they have the guns to take the resources when everything breaks down.

So what do they imagine they’re going to do after they shoot everyone and they’ve already eaten through their 1 year of Infowars freeze-dried ApocalypseChow? Are they going to pick up a shovel, plant a garden, and tend to it before dying an early death from preventable disease?
Couldn’t they just skip the mass starvation and early death and just go right to the garden step and be happier?

Probably comes with the incorrect assumption that the “libtards” don’t have guns.

This has been their plan all along. A Christofascist state run by plutocrats and getting “rich” on slave labor.
