Trump supporters are “howling, bloodthirsty ghouls” and should be hurt? Welcome to the new America.

I have somehow wandered into the Twilight Zone. A very disturbing article appeared in my Medium feed today. I have no idea why such a morbidly unsettling story would get so much exposure, but Medium SENT it to me, so I’m compelled to ask some questions.

Questions that beg for answers . . . what is haunted, horrifying?

The author, we’ll simply call “Johnathan” says he is still haunted by what he endured during the Trump administration. Endured? He confesses: “Nothing is more horrifying” to him. Horrifying? You might be wondering if he had ever heard of the Kent State massacre. Is he talking about the undisclosed black officer who murdered innocent, unarmed Ashli Babbett? Could he have blocked those horrors from his memory? Mr. Rigsby tells us “…the sight of an angry mob storming the US capitol” has affected him profoundly. That’s evident.

Could the author (Who is a ride share driver) have missed witnessing the horrendous BLM and Antifa riots, when Washington D.C. was set on fire? Is it possible he missed the angry mobs storming the White House and setting fire to police cars, small shops and a dozen Federal Buildings including the historic St. John’s Church? Did he not hear them chanting “Burn it down, burn it all down” and “Death to America”. Would it be clear to most observers that he either missed, or is denying 200 days of Antifa thugs, BLM and Biden supporters burning cars, looting businesses, causing millions and millions of dollars of damage? (Some so violent and disturbing that YouTube has to hide them behind an adult sign-in wall?) Is he ignoring months of unimpeded left-wing violence in the streets, injuring or killing citizens and police officers? Do you think he could just ignore black BLM/Antifa thugs pouring paint over a helpless elderly woman, or beating a Korean shop owner, then looting and torching his store, beating up innocent bystanders? Did he miss the video of Biden supporters beating an elderly man bloody with a crowbar for supporting Trump? Is he telling us that none of these “sights” bother him as bad as January 6? He never mentions any of hundreds of these horrors in his emotional disquisition.

Can all-consuming hate for Trump supporters mask the horrors of Biden’s first hundred days?

How can Rigsby even pretend to believe Joe Biden’s claim that “January 6 is the worst threat to America since the Civil War”? We’ve seen a hundred thousand illegals punished and exploited for political purposes since January. The surge of immigrants brought enough COVID-19 to kill 32 border workers and infect more than 8,000! In the first 90 days of the Biden administration, more Fentanyl was captured at the border than ALL of 2020. That’s just what they captured. How about technology? Are Big Media and Big Tech too obsessed with politics to protect us from hackers? Is the Biden administration so obsessed with protesters they neglect protecting our grid? Will Biden allow us to be hacked by our mortal enemies? Did he see Biden appointees mount a purely satanical witch hunt for conservatives and patriots, while doing nothing about the China creep, and the Russian cyber invasion?

Did the author fall prey to the conspiracy theory that Trump and conservatives caused the pandemic? Is he in denial of solid facts and overwhelming evidence that COVID-19 originated in the Chinese Wuhan Lab? Could the pandemic have affected Jonathan Rigsby’s mind as much as it seems? What do you say to someone who writes :

“Every time I stop in traffic and see a Trump sticker on the car in front of me, I’m not struck by a sense that we have a disagreement over the details of policies. This isn’t a question of whether the top tax rate should be 38.4% or 41.2%. Instead, I’m consumed by a feeling that this person would be indifferent to my violent death.”

Consumed by a bumper sticker? Are these the words of a sane person?

“The people who spent years cheering for cruelty must take the first steps, because I will not move a single inch towards them in compromise until they can show me that they are worthy of respect.”

Who cheered for cruelty? What do you think black people think when Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to line up with their cartel in Kente Cloth? Who cheered for cruelty, except for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris who ignore the crisis at the Southern Border? Who promoted cruelty by opening the borders to the cartels, gangs and all manner of terrorists? Who armed the Taliban? Who stranded hundreds of Americans behind enemy lines in Afghanistan? Who has blood on their hands? Not Donald Trump, that’s for sure.

How would you feel if he attacked you…

“If you support this movement of howling, bloodthirsty ghouls, you are a bad person. If that opinion of your beliefs is offensive to you, good. I want it to hurt you, because you are a bad person.”

What did he say? Trump supporters are a movement of “howling, bloodthirsty ghouls” and if you’re a member, then you’re a bad person? Who is the bad person? That Medium writer wants to “hurt you, because you are a bad person!”

Enough.

Johnathan’s glad I’m offended, but it didn’t hurt me. It gave me sadness and pity for him and the tens of millions suffering from the same psychosis. To me, it’s a true shame that big media, big tech and big government politics have had such an affect on so many millions of people. Many people are truly sick and I surely hope they can heal and come back to reality. I know this illness is far spread, and we probably have no idea how far it has spread — or how it will affect the future. It’s a shame, a pity, and a danger to our democracy!

As a public service, I will not link to his article. If you really want to read it, (as 1,700 others already have) you can Google it.
