From here it seems like you’re throwing judgments and accusations at me to justify your own hatred.

No, I'm throwing judgements and accusations at you because they are accurate statements about the results of your beliefs.

I guarantee you and the guy with a maga hat on top of his klan hood have more in common than either of you do with any politician or billionaire

I don't give a shit what we have in common. What we don't have in common is being a bigoted piece of shit and that's not a divide I'm willing to cross.

Amplifying that suffering, picking it up as a weapon and inflicting what has been inflicted on you on another, is far more fundamental a capitulation than helping someone in need you don’t feel “deserves” it.

Capitulation to what? I'm talking about reality, not whatever made up bullshit you have going on in your head that you're using to argue that magas deserve the compassion they are actively doing everything in their power to take away from everyone else.

Arrogant confidence in dismissing one another as "piece of shit" is in this context unfortunately the most relevant part of your commonality. I was speaking of capitulation to hatred itself, of course. I'm not making up hatred, or the peace that I wish you. Please be well

Please, explain to me how fascist, racist, sexist, pedophile felon supporting bigots could possibly not be pieces of shit.

I don't think I can. I'm sorry.
