Not every Trump supporter is garbage. Yes, obviously the Nazis and Proud Boy types are. And yeah, if you accept the cruelty, hate, questionable allegiance to the Constitution, sexism, xenophobia, and stuff just because you think he has some coherent policy you like...you're a garbage too. Of course the folks who see him as a means to their religious ends are trash as well. But once you separate those shitheads out, there's probably a couple truly stupid people who just don't know any better.
They didn't really get their feelings hurt. It's just classic bullying techniques. I hit you; you hit me; now I get to hit you harder because I'm so offended.
republicans: Fuck democrats* (for having the gall to have policies that don't oppress gays and mexicans)
normal people: fuck republicans* (for: lying about covid, j6, gerrymandering and voter purging and all their other cases of sabotaging democracy, stopping any attempts to end mass and school shootings, stopping any attempts to make healthcare affordable for avg citizen, cozying up to literal nazis, regressing women's rights back 60 years, continually trying to kill worker's rights etcetcetc)
they expect to be the only ones not bound by rules of....decency ? so much so they brand it as their own identity "fuck your feelings", the thing that flabbergast them is "how dare they use our thing!"
Their entire process is that they are gonna sling mud believing it'll never be slung back and when it is they want to cry. It does make perfect sense to do that because you won't believe that the side that claims the "high road" will do that, but a lot of us are tired of it and think the retaliation should be swift and double.
We have a bit of a similar situation with our right wingers here. They're being dickheads on purpose, and they make fun of safe spaces and such, but oh boy do they cry and whine when someone says/does something back.
Really demonstrates the bully mentality they have. They're totally accustomed to slinging all the attacks and insults they want, secure in the knowledge that everyone else is mature and civil enough to not engage. The moment they get even the tiniest bit of pushback, they squeal like a stuck pig.
Haha, I looked it up and they're crying about how inappropriate it is, meanwhile their candidate literally said he wants to kill his political opponents with the use of the army...
I genuinely cannot imagine a single person who would even hear "Trump supporters are garbage people" and decide "I'm gonna become a Trump support!" if they weren't one already. At best this is giving the people who were gonna vote Trump but call themselves centrists an excuse to jump up and loudly proclaim themselves Trump supporters and pretend like it's because of Biden instead of the racism/misogyny/whatever they actually like.

All Republicans belong in prison, and Their friends and family should pay for their incarceration. Not the taxpayers

It's been the Republicans party line for decades: treat us the way we treat others? How dare you?!

The entire basis of hierarchical thinking is a desire to be the social betters of others and treated favourably in as many ways as possible.

The fuck your feelings crowd sure doesn't like when you hurt their feelings.
TheZommie
the complete phrase is "fuck your feelings, mine are precious and must be protected at all costs" but they just shorten it to fuck your feelings.

Hey Republicans,

Republicans are the bully, Democrats are the kid who gets in trouble for fighting back while the bully is unpunished.

Republicans are quite literally the party of high school bullies. It's all they know.

Love that he tweeted that he meant "supporter's" with the apostrophe. Biden version of What, no you misheard, I said "Let's go Brandon".

Ah. The tenderest of butts have been chapped by their own approach and 'respect'. Love how strong the "fuck your feelings" crownd is.

People hate being treated they way they treat others.

And that’s why they want to keep women, people of color, minorities, LGBTQ subjugated. They’re afraid of getting what they give
