The only force more powerful than hate is love. The hatred Trump harnessed for political purposes will still exist even when he leaves the WH. The way to overwhelm it is to love people enough that you fundamentally lessen the pain of the economic desperation they are feeling now.

It's easier to love one another when we are feeling secure. Let's establish a #UBI so we are all feeling a little more secure. #BasicIncome now please, because we need to love one another more now than we ever did before.

Imagine if you will, spouting comic book slogans as though they were actual policies in this tale of adolescence from the Twilight Zone

For the trumpers I know, it’s not economic pain at all. They’re doing perfectly fine and F everyone else cuz they did it “on their own”. I quite welcome a quiet holiday. 🙂

I’m on board completely with helping them with their pain. Healthcare, education, economic security. But don’t ask me to pretend that their Trumpist beliefs are acceptable.

You can't love the racism out of someone. That's not how it works. Another reason why I can't wait for UBI. Because once the "economic desperation" is gone, some of you will finally see that the racism doesn't just go with it. Then we can maybe address the real issues.

It’s called tough love. What you champion as “love” is really just indifference to the reality of morality/absolutes. Trump loves our country, and to defend/protect it requires him to call out enemies and that makes weak people uncomfortable...discomfort doesn’t make him wrong.

A little late with your message, aren’t you? Where were you during the last 4 years when all the hatred was being hurled toward Conservatism and President Trump? Also don’t remember seeing you call out rioters, looters and violence. Either live it everyday or sit down!
