    This thread really shows the biggest crime Trump has committed so far: dividing the country.

    For all the rethoric in this (and thousands of other threads) were people from both sides say the other side should die, everyone seems to forget that they’re talking about their families, their friends, their neighbours. Anyone in doubt about how a civil war actually looks like should maybe ask Yugoslavia how well that worked out for them. Yeah i know, it no longer exists.

    How many innocent civilians were murdered?

    One should also think about what will happen to the US when other countries (hello China, hello Russia) will take advantage of the US being in a civil war. Land grabbing, US land grabbing and hell, WWIII aren’t off the table.

    To be clear, I’m veryuch against Trump, against the religious extremists and their takeover of the US government, but people on both sides need to calm down and look at their leaders. Right wing leadership is fucking evil and as far as I am concerned can all burn in a fire, but were talking about a fairly small group that pushes all this.

    Stop fantasizing about murdering everyone following right wing media, most of them have been brainwashed, are dumb, or just plain angry and once all this is over, they’ll still be your family, they’ll still be your neighbor, they’ll still be your friends, they’ll still be there, and you can’t murder them all, that is not how anything works.

    Start working on bridging the gap, start working today on reaching out and pulling those angry fixkers back into the fold. Show them we’re not the enemy.

    Their leadership, again, is a different story.
