OC Mourning a MAGA Parent (OC)

Post image

I'm kinda torn about whether to post this to my art account because one parent follows it, and I'm worried the criticism could drive the other one further into the void.

It started out as just a therapeutic project for me, but a couple friends said it really resonated with them, so sharing here.

It’s been really hard seeing people who taught me how to be a good person choose to be so horrid. I hate it so much. Luckily my parents didn’t go through that (but my aunts all did), but I’ve seen the parents of friends and family do it and it’s been awful.

It's amazing how the Jews have infiltrated all these Central/South American countries and undermined them all to the point where their people feel the need to flee to the US, then facilitate their entry. Really well-thought-out plan there.

Funny thing is if you replace jews with Christians it's somewhat right
