Unfortunately for our entertainment, her Facebook profile has been entirely purged of her MAGA history.

Transcript:

I'm officially unemployed. Today I was RIF'd from the government. It's such a surreal and humbling moment; one that I knew was coming but secretly thought and wished would never happen. I started working for SBA in 2010 during my senior year of college. I came in as an emergency hire and was placed on the student career experience program. I worked in accounts payable for 14 years before moving to contracting in October. I worked remotely since 2017 when I was placed on a reasonable accommodation after shattering my kneecap while walking into work. I worked countless hours from different hospitals I was inpatient in from 2017-2023. I relied on work to get me through many difficult times in my life while I was alone in the hospital or angry at the universe. It kept me mentally sane for many years and gave me a purpose in life. I took a lot of pride over the team I managed and the work that we produced. I wouldn't change one thing about my federal career and hope one day I can continue it.

For now, it is time to figure out what is next for me. To all my fellow government workers, I want to say it's been a privilege being able to work with you. The government is full of a lot of highly intelligent and hard working individuals. I know that we will all be ok after the dust has settled and make a game plan for what is next. I have met so many great people in the government and hope the best for everyone!

For everyone that knows someone in the federal workforce, please check in on them. This is a scary and sad time for most of us and we are not ok at the moment and are faced with some scary unknown challenges that we have not faced before.

I have found that 'apolitical' and 'moderate' actually means 'conservative, but doesn't want to have to defend their position or look bad.'

Only those with detestable politics detest talking politics.

This is especially true in dating apps. Glad I only use those for entertainment now. 😂

Yeah she had no problem posting Trump supporting messages until she entered the Find Out stage.

Secretly thought and wished would never happen.

Secretly. Outwardly, though, apparently they were all "Woooo! Fire me, bitches! I can't wait for this to happen, let's do this!!"

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago

lol get fucked, you stupid bitch. You brought this completely on yourself. Also, using your job as a crutch to get through life is pathetic as hell.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

Hope she suffers greatly.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago

Absolutely zero fucks to give.

Exactly this

I view this as positive change. Why do you think she'd delete all those posts? If someone changes their mind about Trump, or realizes they've made a mistake, you need to respect them and celebrate them. Rubbing it in their face or trying to make them feel like shit is not going to accomplish anything productive

[–] [email protected] -5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Nah no one needs to do shit “snowflake” what are you some SJW? You woke? You acting like some DEI libtard hire with that response.

No I don’t think I’ll be nice to the ones I know were maga. Actions have consequences and I intend to make sure they face some.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

...are you sure you're not one of them? You sound pretty ignorant and angry...

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's not admitting a mistake, it's trying to cover it up.

Admitting her mistake would be...admitting her mistake...and maybe going shoulder to shoulder with the activists protecting trans kids, immigrant families, and other disenfranchised groups.

The Nazis that burned the records and evidence of the concentration camps didn't feel remorse, they just didn't want to get caught for what they know they did.

If any Nazi wants my forgiveness they can earn it by bringing me ten Nazi skulls. That whould show me that they truly understand the harm they have caused.

Anything less is just lip service.

I appreciate your empathy and attempt at a positive change. However, keep in mind this is /c/leopardsatemyface. People are here specifically to see faces getting eaten.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 days ago

I view it as them being a coward and trying to hide in shame. Their post didn’t really come off as learning any lesson other than surprise that they got bit too when they meant to just hurt other people with their vote

Rubbing it in their face or trying to make them feel like shit is not going to accomplish anything productive

This approach is the primary cause of everything getting worse. Didn't punish the south enough for the civil war, so we got James Crow laws and other horrible shit thrown at black people to this day. Didn't punish Nixon, pretended everything was fine with all the other shit stains instead of holding them accountable.

No, this lady should be vilified for what she did. Letting her hide it just means that she can act like she is in it with everyone else when she lit the house on fire. All these MAGA supporters need to be shamed in public permanently.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Consequences for actions and being held accountable are the only ways a person, or country, can heal.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Villified? No. We have a sound and tried mechanism for that.

She should be shamed.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Maybe it’s time to start giving them something they can’t take off/down

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I vote this!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

"And when you go home, are you gonna take those posts down?"

"..."

"Yeah, that's what I thought. And that is something I just cannot abide."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I don't think they're saying to completely forgive them. It's just that them changing their mind is a positive change that should be acknowledged and celebrated. People can change for the better. Some people would still support Trump even when it hurts them.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

Sounds like they were smart enough to realize how stupid they looked. That’s not the same at all.

It’s A Cult. They will vote the same way again.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I haven't seen anything to indicate she's changed her mind. Not one "I was wrong", no "I regret my vote", nothing but whining about what's happened to her.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

it’s not about changing their minds, it’s about rubbing their faces in it

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

It is about making an example of terrible people instead of giving them a free pass.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If anyone knows how to access non-public deleted Facebook posts, please let me know. I would love to share some of her past posts and pics of her and her husband wearing MAGA hats.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

There's no reason to dox them. Your point is valid without invading their privacy.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Never intended to dox anyone. I've made sure to black out her husband and her name from all 3 posts. I personally was a big fan of the old Herman Cain Award-style of posting emojis over pictures so you could still see what was going on without including personal details.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What do you call 9 people sitting at a table with 1 Nazi? 10 Nazis.

No sympathy. No quarter.
