Reading between the lines, ol' Bob here seems to think that only MAGA are people. Destroying the libs' lives is perfectly fine.
That's what they all think. They're violent, hateful, and disgusting people. I'm wondering how long before Nazi hat wearing motherfuckers start getting attacked in public as a matter of self defense.

Crystal Minton, who inadvertently became the ideological core of the MAGA movement. She said the quiet part out loud.
I like what the left wants is universal healthcare, a social safety net, housing for everyone, just stuff where we’d love it if everybody had access to it. The only people who need to be “hurt” are the straight-up actual criminals who seem to otherwise dodge every consequence and those people are extremely rich assholes who have a lot of power and use it all for pure evil and none of them are regular people.
But then the right comes along and it’s always “how can we bring the most cruel, crude punishment to this margainalized group of poor people?” and it’s just, like…fucking really?
I think a whole lot of it is racism, xenophobia, etc...even if government-as-a-weapon is an inexact thing, and those voting for qons know it, they still hope it will harm the out-group even more.
I've been wondering the same thing.
him also misunderstanding what the "wrecking ball" does?
Exactly. In what universe is a wrecking ball used to build something?
Same with chainsaws - some of the dipshits are still employing this myth that fElon and his Incel Clown Posse were going to be applying sound principles to improving efficiency in some kind of surgical fashion (instead of the smash-n-grab that it really is).
Meanwhile, fElon is literally swinging around a chainsaw for his slack-jawed yokel admirers. Even on metaphors, this is a huge failure. What kind of surgery is done with a FUCKING CHAINSAW?
Even the most dogmatic redcap adherents cannot make that make sense to each other.
