Comment on Common Ground
chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 6 days agoWhere do you draw the line? Let’s start at telling others what they can do with their bodies. Let’s start at denying US Citizens the right to be in the country. Shit, pick something off of the Project 2025 list and draw that line.
I’ve been wrong about things in my life, too. For instance, I ordered Taco Bell a few days ago and it wasn’t great. I didn’t suddenly feel like abolishing gay rights, though. I’m being glib. It’s OK to be wrong. You have to admit it, and then SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE REPAIRING THE DAMAGE YOU’VE DONE. All this “uwu, sowwy” bullshit that comes out of the mouths of the “reformed” is worth less than what I left in the bowl after the Taco Bell. Actions are all I care about. Fix your mistake, fuck your apology.

That is a viable path to redemption. In fact I think spending one’s life repairing damage done is only the minimum expectation.
Also to be clear, I’m talking about common voters, rank-and-file conservatives. Public figures on the other hand, especially those active in the current administration, must be imprisoned, and many of them for life, if only to demonstrate to the world the severity of their crimes against humanity.
