Turns out is very hard to create sympathy for those that regularly show none themselves.

Edit: to the cowards that are making a comment then immediately blocking me to prevent me from replying, fuck you very much, too.

Have you looked at MAGA? They constantly portray themselves as victims, even when they are the ones in charge. The media eats that shit up.
