    I developed a pretty strong sense of apathy for most of the people around me, who either won’t vote or vote for whatever Fox News tells them too.

    That being said, I’m fearful for the friends I have that feel they will need to hide who they are just to go about their lives.

      Man I feel you there. The apathy is real. I feel for those who are innocent who are really going to be hurt by this. I’ve stopped caring about anyone who voted for it. You’re on the lower income but can’t afford food? Too bad he’s coming for food stamps. Bootstraps. Grandma needs Medicaid but voted red? Sorry grandma, better get a job.

      For all those who truly voted to try to save these things, my heart goes out to them. The rest though, it’s going to be painful.

      The ironic thing is that they did it all to own the libs. The thing is though, the vast majority of “libs” I see push for these programs for others, not themselves. But these people can’t even comprehend that we want to help people and assume we want free stuff. All the while it’s them that we were probably helping the most. It’s absolutely asinine
