I remember all of the mass shootings during the 2010s. Fortunately things don't seem on the same destructive scale, but I think everyone needs to be reminded of something ...

and you are completing the cycle by continuing the partisan hate and anger instead of being positive and supporting the more independent minded. this is what partisanship is for: fighting. they're just better at it than you, so you lose and they win. the only way out is to opt out. or keep fighting and losing
Rep. Adam Kinzinger to Tucker Carlson: "You're a manipulative son of a bitch who abuses your viewers for your own personal profit." https://t.co/JXDzDwALWI
So laud and support her instead of trying to gin up more support for hating Wyoming Republicans. Your hatred is so obvious sometimes it screams, to me you seem to be little different than Jan. 6 Trump partisans who screamed for the lynching of Pence.
I’d rather people think nice things about people on the other side as there’s a much better chance of sincerity. But I’d sure take saying nice things as a place to start.
or just try being "interesting and informative" instead of confrontational:
Today, 58% of Republicans say they find talking politics with people they disagree with to be stressful, up 11 percentage points since 2019. Similarly, six-in-ten Democrats say they find such conversations stressful and frustrating, up from 53% in 2019. https://t.co/Kw6QaIiZqqpic.twitter.com/uCVYGfXz0o
and then there's "how about not judging by media' political stereotypes":
Setting off on a road trip around Appalachia, I wondered: my last-chance antebellum tour of MAGA-land before...a national crackup? Encountering nothing but the kindness of strangers, I was reminded that media bubbles are toxic and real life is therapeutic. https://t.co/ka49qXjJtT

cancelled, like Kathy Griffin was for a similar thing -
but that won't stop partisans from lauding what they did, reality is that partisans won't follow Orion's prescription
edit to add:

Republican partisan are trying to create an authoritarian government. They are suppressing votes and giving legislatures power to overturn elections.
Republicans are inciting violence with the Big Lie
They refuse to hold Paul Gosar accountable
They definitely are not following Orion's prescription

The Republican leadership has completed the cycle.
They are willing to ignore the Constitution
They are elected officials so they have the power to create an authoritarian government, I do not
BTW, when they take over, you lose too.

this wouldn't stop Americans from hating foreigners, but it would be a start:

Wyoming Republicans are telling us that Lynn Cheney is no longer a member of the GOP.

More reasons why I do not take you seriously
State legislatures led by Republicans are changing election laws so that Republicans will always win
Republicans are telling the 13 Republicans who voted for the infrastructure bill that they will have to pay a price
They are kicking Cheney and Kinzinger out of the party.
Republicans are refusing to testify before Congress
They believe that Trump won the election
You see all this and say that I am spewing hate by stating facts.
In your mind, stating the truth makes me no different than the terrorists who attacked on January 6th
You are not making a logical argument.

Yeah, Trump and friends helped cause this, but does that mean you have to do the same?
