    People really enjoy discarding reality to make themselves feel better.

    The latest dense motherfucker moment is all people right now who think Trump’s conviction means he will go to prison and they won’t have to worry about voting in November.

    I’ve been called a nazi repeatedly for explaining that while the fantasy might make us all feel better, the reality is no judge on EARTH would condemn a geriatric, senile, ex-president to die in prison, to think nothing of the complications of things like Secret Service. “FuCk yOu FaSciSt!” they reply.

      A strange day when you get called a fascist for encouraging center and left wing turnout to an election.
