I used to hear right-wingers talking about "suffering under" Obama or Biden and I wonder just what that suffering consisted of or if it in any way could compare to the existential dread I feel on reading the news every morning.
I can remember praying with my grandmother for an end to Stalin. I no longer believe in the power of prayer but I can wish with all my heart . . .
Meanwhile I email my congressmen--pretty hopeless, as at least two of them are firmly in the cult and Tillis, though he's not seeking re-election and occasionally shows signs of remembering he once had balls, is still not free of MAGA.
May the Blue Wave come and wash away the orange stain on our country. (That's as close to prayer as I get,)

Many right-wingers are evangelicals, and they like to think that they are suffering for Jesus. It seems to validate them — to themselves anyway.
No not normal at all.
Our news must now be taken with a grain of salt/sanity. There are many around me too, neighbors, those I walk with in grocery stores, workers delivering goods, the religious zealots, who somehow support the crazies...and blindly miss seeing the next results of these fearful actions. I hope we may stop the destructive era that we are in.
