    And what IS my privilege internet stranger? I’m making a good faith argument on the internet that you disagree with, but I’m a stranger to you and you have no idea of what my daily life looks like or how much privilege I have or do not have.

    I appreciate the disagreement, but I don’t appreciate assumptions of what kind of fucking castle I live in or how isolated I am from current events or political violence.

    As a thought exercise: if he succeeded, doesn’t that only further incite the right, convince them that they are fighting the holy fight, and accelerate violence against the citizenry?

    I don’t like Trump either so I get the feeling behind the message, but I don’t see any universe where a successful assassination attempt is a net positive for the country. Seems like it only furthers division and probably leads to a worse place overall.

    Would love to know how I’m wrong though.
