This is what’s baffling about watching all this happen, like this is a really basic concept that most adults know. You should understand that this will not save you and will only encourage them.
And its not even the first time they've done this with Trump. Libs tripped over themselves to express how horrified they were of the assassination attempt on Trump only for Trump to shit on them like always. But its just libs being libs. They're quick to shed tears for fascists, not so much for the oppressed.
It’s lawyers and actuaries. They don’t understand this about bullies, they can only think in terms of probabilities and legal liability.
I genuinely don't understand it and can only surmise that these were the spineless kids who never once stood up for themselves, telling themselves that they just had to keep their heads down and do the homework, and in the adult world it would be different (the adult world is not different)
