“Over on Gab this prominent Trump supporter--247 k followers, RT'd by Trump back when that was a thing--is celebrating the Myanmar coup as a model.”

I sent a Christmas present back, because we need the money, and I was losing sleep over it. He works so damned hard, all the time, never gets a vacation, no holiday pay or sick pay. You don’t get to call anything that he does, or his attitude, into question. He is off limits here.

You still did not answer why you felt your dad had the god given right to work as a delivery driver, and still make a living in this covid times, while others were duty bound to be unemployed and stay at home and lose their livelyhood and live on unemployment begging the govt for $600 check.

I am going to call you all on that because you have absolutely zero sympathy for those who are facing financial destitution after having worked so hard for many years. You feel your dad can work, but others should just stay the eff home. Yes, I will call you on that.

People find it easier to attack each other than deal with the problems.

As another member mentioned, you do seem to get treated very harshly in here in comparison to others Teasel. But equally, you stand your ground, whereas others drift away (even me from time to time).

But you are completely right. NOTHING is worth your wellbeing. I am also at that crossroads, just not regarding GU.

As long as you come back when you feel better

P.S. Your dad sounds awesome, and he is lucky to have your love and support

You might want to take some time off, not just from GU, but from all the other news sites you are always parroting uncritically.

If I were in your shoes, I would ask myself why is it that I am suffering from such severe digestive issues as you have described in some of your posts, what is the symbolic meaning of me not being able to keep food down?

I would ask myself, am I properly digesting the information I am devouring?

That’s a slap/hug and it’s about as toxic as one can get

Also it’s right wing news sources which are delusional and propaganda

Teasel you are a dear, I support whatever decision you make

Of course, the best "help" you can give her is to egg her on and to blame GU for her illness. Which she has had for 12 years and which apparently keeps getting worse.

You and I have butted head repeatedly since last year over politics. Prior to that, we were never at odd.

I have some material that has helped me a lot, I would like to send it to you for your family and for your dad. Please DM me on FB.

This is a post from someone on the country, who voted for the people who have been detained:

This could have happened here, and you would be celebrating, because you live in your own reality. I listened to AOC talking about her personal experience on January 6th. She’s lucky to be alive, and so are others. She was running from Trump supporters and Q believers, who were hunting her. You don’t get to blame antifa - that’s the crap that comes from being immersed in one belief system, and not seeing the rest of us as human beings. I’m not the one who needs to grow up.
