You’re right about the events you mention. I guess I was thinking more about the pervasive attitude now, promoted by Trump. I don’t recall one man having this much influence in the past. All JMO.

He is absolutely unique in his ugly message and the reach of it, I agree. To our shame, imo.

His own public behaviour has given people permission to bring out their ugly in full display.
Has enabled the secret bigots to be public bigots.
Has enabled the secret anarchists to be public anarchists.
Has enabled the secret tantrumers to become public tantrumers.
Has enabled the secret liars to be public liars.
Because if he can get away with it, so can they.

Personally, I don’t think it’s always been this mean-spirited and violent on this scale. I think it’s unprecedented.

JMO
@Lilibet Totally agree.
I have never seen, heard nor read about so much hatred for others in my life. People are all on edge it seems 24/7 and even the common courtesies are few and far between.
Everybody's exhausted from the constant barrage of unnecessary conflict and vitriol coming from all directions.
We are all just people longing for a sense of community and safety to raise our children and live our lives.
I am not sure why it has to be so hard

Being called a “Libtard” by my own family members because I think criminals who crime should be held accountable has been a nightmare.

Trump fomented hatred and division “the likes of which have never been seen”.

We will never recover.

I never even knew which of my friends were Republicans or Democrats till 45 came along. I never knew I could be actively disliked for hanging on to my core values and principles. I’m the one who doesnt go to Church, yet I find myself acting more Christ like than the ones that do.

This.

I follow the wise credo of never discussing religion, politics or money with family or friends.

However, I cannot tell you how many times in the last 7 years I have bitten my tongue and refused to be baited by people whom I love who are full-on MAGA and have no filters when ridiculing me for being vaccinated or voting blue.

I don’t put political stickers on my car or signs outside my house because I have a very real fear of vandalism. (I live in the reddest of red) Holidays with family have become unbearable.

My husband and I may stay home this Christmas-it’s that bad.

I’m sorry. (((Hugs))) I know I really miss being able to just celebrate holidays with family and eat too much and laugh and have fun. We haven’t had that in years.

This. You’ve nailed it! Sadly.

And then there’s Special Prosecutor Jack Smith, a strongly principled adult. Not involved in this case, but a heartening contrast to Trump.

And it's spread to other countries.

A once normal thing like getting a flu shot which I mentioned at a local hobby group was met with pitying eyes and a lecture on "falling for what I've been told" and finding my information from the "wrong" place.

By that they meant the ABC, our national broadcaster.

By the way according to them, Covid is a hoax.
Out of the blue on another day, someone whispered to me that climate change is a hoax.

And yes it seems the worst of them are Trump fans.
They have really hard hearted views on everything.


I edited this to say I find they have quite bizarre views.

@SkyBoomer @Stunned @TootsieFootsie

Hugs to you all, and thank you for standing strong. I have had similar experiences with being instantly flooded with hate for "simple" things such as getting vaccinated against Covid or standing with my loved ones who are LGBTQ+. It's exhausting but it's good to be reminded that others are out there standing for truth, love, justice and peace. It makes me feel like there may just be hope yet. IMO

I am also so sorry to hear that Ms. Willis and others are continuing to face threats, for simply doing their jobs. MOO

That reminds me of 2 of my friends.... I did not know they were that dumb... LOL! :D

The politics post-2016 have broken up relationships in my sibling group. It's hard to believe we grew up in the same household.

When I first typed my post, that was my thought. But then I thought of attacks against African Americans in our lifetimes, bombings of houses of worship, assassinations of leaders like MLK. Hate-flled attacks on LGBTQ are nothing new.

Something about the mean-spirited atmosphere does feel new. I guess we were taught, true or not, that Americans valued the "mixed pot" of different people agreeing to respect democracy, and now it seems like the message is "other Americans are the enemy."

I am concerned about D.A. Willis and staff in Fulton County and I am VERY concerned that people will decline from pursuing careers in pubic service and we'll be left with the dregs. :(

jmo
This, exactly. If you ask any of my friends within the LGBTQ community, specifically my trans friends, they can tell you just how violent and mean-spirited other Americans can be, unfortunately. MOO
This is just that feeling but on a wider scale.
