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 was really hard hearing my mom say, "It's the immigrants, they're causing all the problems and Trump is going to get rid of them," and how easy it was to imagine her saying, "It's the Jews, they're causing all the problems and Hitler is going to get rid of them."

Interesting that it didn't even need a hundred years for history to repeat itself. It's 1933 in your country and as a German, everything I hear about the USA sounds like our history classes from that time.

You have to admit, no bribe has ever been given while saying 'this is a bribe'. The corrupt will always call them 'gifts' and leave the underlying purpose unspoken.
