    I’m never looking at mine ever again. And we’re in freaking Australia. I hate how far the rot spreads, but, sometimes it’s just better to cut loose and move on.

      Let me get downvoted for this.

      Time heals.

      Time can heal all wounds.

      Forgiveness is one of the most powerful acts we can perform human to human.

      Yes, it shows all the hate in all around us, however. Don’t underestimate the mountains of psychological research and manipulation that went into all these million dollar propaganda enterprises like Fox News, Cambridge Analytica, the Murdochs, etc.

      They are victims of mass manipulation. It is far better to look at them as if they are severe drug addicts than to write them off completely.

      Hope this helps someone. It helped me.

          First, nice day one comment. Welcome to Lemmy.

          Second, by not distinguishing between Nazis and Nazi supporters (ie victims of propaganda) you would have had to cull over half of the German population in 1944.

          Third, never give an actual Nazi the near painless exit from Earth by just shooting them. They at least deserve a ceremonial public guillotine party.

        I don’t disagree with you, but there are wounds that time alone cannot heal. Same goes for drug addicts.

        They can make amends, but I won’t forget.

        Forgivness comes after acknowledging your wrongs, taking responsibility, apologizing, and making amends. You don’t get to keep being a POS while everyone ignores it and welcomes you into the fold.
