You gotta see it from their POV.  They've probably spent considerable time trying to convince themselves and others that we -weren't- a bunch of racist twatwaffles.  Turns out they were wrong about that, lol.
I've felt twinges before, like reading accounts of the Trail of Tears, and watching things like 12 years a slave.  However, I wasn't even alive back the, so what could I do about it?  No real reason for me to feel guilty.

I live in a place where I am literally surrounded by white Trump supporters, and what did I do when my kid didn't want to trick or treat at houses that had Trump signs?  I told her they are good people, too, tolerance and understanding, blah blah blah.
Seems like I tolerated this right into office.

These people aren't living on foodstamps, they own their homes and get by fine.  They just wanted to throw a grenade at Washington, and I let it happen.
