For fuck's sake. Are you trying to say it's just a couple low level staffers responsible for all that? The entire Trump administration from the top down is all in on everything on that list.
You might want to skip the personal attacks given the level of basic reasoning you've exhibited thus far in the comments.
They've wronged be personally by doing all that shit in my name as leaders of the country and government that I am a citizen of. Just because I haven't been put in handcuffs doesn't mean I'm ok with it happening to other people who have done nothing wrong.
Tell that to the assholes deporting US citizen children with cancer or the doge idiots who cut whole departments only to go back and beg people to come back.
I not ok with all the messed up stuff they're doing either. I think it's grim, but I think a lot of people go mentally ill because they believe they're completely helpless. I've been in that mindspace before, things stabilize once I told myself that I care, but not enough to go insane for it.
I have multiple other things I also find interesting, I don't want to needlessly crucify myself for a cause. It feels like stranding the people and the things I love.
You'd struggle to straighten things out when your brain is making dark scribbles.
Not sure if you get where I'm coming from.
