We have a long road ahead of us. While I think criminals who wreaked havoc on this country over the last 4 years should be prosecuted in full, it’s equally important in order to create the world we want on the other side of this that we try to dwell with compassion in our hearts.

Haven't got extra compassion laying around, sorry. Too much spent on those who deserve it.

We’ll make sure they get a blanket, a pillow, and three yummy squares a day at the license plate factory. #compassion

I'll reserve my compassion for all those they have harmed, they deserve the compassion of the noose.

The compassionate thing to do for this country would be to push progressive policies to wipe out the GOP and prosecute those who were complicit in a coup attempt. Ain't nothing moral about smiling to autocrats, bigots and racists. Have care for suffering marginalized people's ❤

Compassion and accountability are not mutually exclusive.

You can’t actually point to buildings that were burned down, nor can you point to murderers like Kyle Rittenhouse among the protesters. Spraying paint on walls does not compare to separating children from parents at the border.

I agree with that. We should remember that after Watergate, Haldeman and Ehrlichman and Mitchell and Dean all served prison time. Ford pre-pardoned Nixon but the rest of them went to jail.
