    You gotta remember, in America we’re not enemies, we’re friends, we’re neighbors."

    Then come over here and tell that to some of my neighbors who would want me dead if they knew certain things about me.

      This quote comes to mind:

      Nice people made the best Nazis. My mom grew up next to them. They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.” They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. You know who weren’t nice people? Resisters.

      ― Naomi Shulman

      It’s hard to have any sympathy for people who have spent their lives making it abundantly clear they’d kill you if they had the chance.

      In a nation where homes are how we expand our portfolio and not where we make our community, you are a danger to the investment.

      I’d probably want you dead too if I knew you were a sentient squirrel capable of time travel that wasn’t actively using it’s power to change our present for the better.

    It’s not an accusation. The word you are looking for is observation.

    Come on! A newspaper should hire people with better vocabularies!

        But when it comes from someone whose politics align with the paper they’ll just say it, it’s a small and effective rhetorical manipulation I’ve seen everywhere thanks to ground.news
