I wonder who you think I mean?

I want us to learn to distinguish between people who voted for Trump and MAGA Republicans who have used Trump voters to enact all of this suffering.

Please. May we use this moment to clear a path *back* to sanity - not further isolation.

I’m not saying you have to invite them into your home. And I believe accountability is a part of care. BUT PLEASE do not celebrate the suffering of your fellow working class or poor humans like they deserve it. None of us NONE of us deserve this.

When we talk about how the elites are dividing us against each other *this is part of it!*

If we’re ever to have any hope of bringing them into our coalition, I just need you to understand that their suffering is still *human suffering* brought on by the oligarchy. When you preach on class solidarity, it must include Trump voters who have a chance to learn now.

You are not alone. No one is alone.

There is no “they.” There is no such thing as “them.”

Community requires love, and love is hard work.

People have been used and lied to. Of course they will be mistrustful. Be worthy of their trust.

You don’t have to fight every battle all the time - this is why community is vital. We share the load.

These are all funded by federal grants collected from YOU THE TAXPAYER. If you believe your money is well spent at non-profits that house, feed, and educate your neighbors, please make sure the people who represent you know what you think.

I'm talking about your schools, your libraries, your homeless shelters and food pantries, your DV/SA victim services agencies, your disability and senior services organizations, your public health departments.

I needed to see this this morning. Thank you.
