    You have more compassion than I. But my mother has money and also falls for this shit. I’m basically ending my relationship with her for voting for the orange-bad again. Now she gets emails with headlines and article links to all the horrible shit they’re doing and me accusing her of being at fault.

      Just because you have compassion doesn’t mean you have to be a pushover. If that’s the only language she’ll understand, then you gotta do what you gotta do.

      Just remember that compassion for people is the opposite of the hatred that the republican party represents, but sometimes that compassion demands hard decisions.
