(6,401 posts)That's why, no matter who is ahead in Congress, no progress can be made. Progress only happens when compromise can be made. Neither side is happy, but neither side is totally written off, either. Up until Bill Clinton, IMO, we still had the ability to compromise in this country. But it seems like no matter how many of "them" were caught propositioning men in bathrooms with their "wide stance" or caught in illicit gay affairs, or charged and arrested for pedophilia... that one "cigar" from a democratic president pushed them over the edge. Add that to the audacity of electing a black president, and they fully lost their minds, their souls, their humanity. The irony never crossed their minds.
There is so much to hate them for... what they do, what they think, their overt delight in cruelty. But the thing I hate them for the most is what they did to me. It wasn't until they despoiled our Capitol on Jan 6, that I discovered what hate truly was, and how it felt inside me. Up until then, I may not have liked something or someone... sometimes, very vocally... but it wasn't until this maga coup that I learned that real hate lives inside me, too. It's shaken me to my core; it's taken away not only my love of life but the peace of my spiritual practices. For all their overt backward xtianity, they made me an atheist. I can never forgive them for taking away what peace I found in this world, nor for what they made me. And woe be unto them when enough of us feel like this and take to action, because we have no illusions of death anymore... and it's all beholding to them. (IMNSHO)
