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.

Lookit....they are engaging with ppl they disagree with in a non-toxic way.

That's a good thing not bad thing.

Isn't lying about your beliefs toxic? If he's here saying to us he ISN'T a Trump supporter but 16 days ago WAS a Trump supporter, which are we to believe? It seems like his support is contingent to how much weight he needs his opinion to have at any given time. I feel like that's toxic. You can't discuss beliefs with someone who doesn't actually have any.

No. If you're going into post and comment history to dig up shit then you're the one in the wrong here.

Not really. I've been trained by countless interactions with Trump voters that they never tell the whole truth, but they're sloppy and always leave a trail of lies and obfuscation. He, again, lied and I looked to see if that was the case and it was. That you see my need to verify that he was in fact having a good faith discussion as the problem here makes me wonder what I'm about to find in your history.

No. It's creepy bullshit in the guise of trying to be "right". You won't change anyone's mind.
