    I ran into someone like this on Lemmy just yesterday. They said that “we” deserve to suffer if Trump gets elected. I said that I was guessing they weren’t queer or a person of color. They were not. Therefore they were not part of “we.” ‘Innocent people that are definitely not me deserve to suffer so that America gets what it deserves’ is a really fucking galling attitude.

      Paraphrasing Contrapoints: you only get to ‘watch the world burn’ when you have the privilege of not being on fire.
