Sorry, I know this is totally inflammatory, but if the Fediverse isn't a place where I can express this, then I don't know where is...
My perspective on things has changed. I want to encourage those who have been "reasonable", like me, up until this point, to be "unreasonable", if you are having similar feelings. I guess you could say that the actions of Republican's and Trumpists have "radicalized" me in a perhaps unhealthy way. I see no more daylight. If there are still any Republicans or people who voted for Trump for whatever crazy reason and don't regret the decision, then shame on them, shun them, disown them. No more "reaching across the isle" for these people. At some point, I contend, it is black and white, democratic or fascist. Please don't continue business as usual during the holidays or for whatever event. Call these Republicans and Trumpists out, wherever you come in contact with them in your social circles, if they have not changed their mind at this point. There is no excuse. No more apologies. I know that's probably not going to heal anyth

I know that's probably not going to heal anything, but I've been watching this game for 50 years, and there is no "working with" or placating the extreme right. It's time to let them know, strongly, everywhere.
