I keep going back and forth on whether to post this or not but I’ve decided I don’t give a fuck about your feelings if this offends you.

If you vote for Trump, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If you vote for any of the bootlicking incumbent Republicans that allowed his administration’s treason, corruption, xenophobia, racism, science denial, gaslighting, narcissism, and general incompetence to go unchecked, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If your main source of “news” is Fox News, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If you think your opinion is just as valid as anybody else’s despite being contrary to basic incontrovertible facts and expertise, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If you think the COVID-19 pandemic is a hoax, or that it’s not a big deal if it kills hundreds of thousands of people, or you refuse to wear a mask in public because your ego can’t take someone telling you what to do, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If you think climate change is a big conspiracy or vaccines cause autism, you’re ignorant and an asshole.

If you think being LGBTQIA+ is a choice or an invalid part of one’s identity, you’re ignorant and an asshole.
