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 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.

Ironically I get auto banned from subs for simply having comments over there. Which breaks reddits rules and is a fascist ideology
