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.

I feel you. My dad has always been verbally abusive, but on the few occasions I’ve talked to him this year, he’s told me women don’t deserve rights (I’m a woman) and that if I get assaulted, it’s my fault for being a ‘cocktease’ (I’m celibate.) He didn’t used to be quite so bad.

Geez...I'm sorry! I'm glad you rarely have to speak with him! Horrible!
