"Civility is the mode of engagement that is often demanded in political discourse; it is the price of admission to important political conversation, its adherents would have us believe; no civility, no service. But civility — this idea that there is a perfect, polite way to communicate about sociopolitical differences — is a fantasy"
There used to be. When I was growing up in the 90s, I had Democrat and Republican friends and family. It was just not discussed and we all respected one another. When John McCain and Mittens Romney were running, I respected them but obviously disagreed with their views. Obviously, as a WASP who is not part of the Rainbow Community, I can understand how many people had an issue with both men and their belief system. They even defended President Obama when the toothless losers in some square state called him "A Muslim Kenyan terrorist". Even in their debates, they were aggressive but respectful. But, neither one had a shot against this brilliant, young star of the Democratic Party. He was violently disrespected by the other side because they couldn't wrap their head around this incredible, bright, Black man being the leader of the Country. The secret service later said he had a lot more protection due to the racism and death threats he constantly received. Those people were all Republicans, of course. That is when the civility ended. Change is super hard for White straight men, apparently.
Then came the worst thing to happen to America, ever. As my beautiful President Joey Robinette said "You are the worst President in the history of this Country", and of course won in a fair and free election. Sadly, the Dogfaced Pedophile convinced half of America that it was "rigged" and "fixed" despite every single court throwing his lawsuits out. Everyone in America with common sense and critical thinking skills knew the election was not rigged, in any capacity. We knew he wanted the Democrats kidnapped, hurt, and murdered on January 6th. "Trump sent us!". Yes, he did. He wanted to inflict harm and/or death on every single one of his co-workers, including his Vice President who has since spoken out on how abhorrent and disgusting his former boss truly was. I am proud of him for doing that. America has become divided, angry, more violent and frankly, dumber, with him in charge. My sweet Joey wanted unity, the Rapist wanted division and cruelty, that was his entire campaign. The decline of America has been hard for those of us who love and live in this great Nation. When I told people in 2015 that he was a sociopath who would ruin America, no one believed me. Now, more and more people are catching on. Sometimes it takes people a minute, but I’m surprised at how long it took for people to say “I was wrong, he is terrible for America”.
I give no grace, sympathy, or forgiveness for anyone who voted for him. Not even the people who are losing half their families to ICE. You made your f*cking bed, lie in it. President Obama and President Biden’s accomplishments are incredible and speak for themselves. They were true leaders and everyone I know misses the true leadership and actual adults in Washington. This is temporary and will end, of course, but getting there is torturous for the intelligent, good people in America and for the majority of us here.
There is no civility because a cult leader decided he was still mad at the meanies and decided to take it out on the American people. He has ruined this Country, and I hope he leaves this Earth soon, in a violent way or natural. It truly doesn’t matter to me, but due to him taking food out of people’s mouths, there are more and more people daily who want to hurt him. I hope they succeed. When my 90 year old Grandmother (the sweetest woman at church) says "Honey, he's about as sharp as a marble and as handsome as an elephant seal.", you know he's the living worst.
So yeah……you can clearly see by my ridiculous rambling statement….there is zero civility left in America today
