    Yeah, but then your father sends you a bunch of pro-bigotry, pro-fascist memes and you wonder if he’s actively trying to trigger you or if he honestly thinks he can convert you to his regressive way of thinking.

      That’s when you hit him back with hardcore gay porn. He’ll be too busy furiously masturbating and wallowing in guilt and shame to send you any more.

      Both. He wants violence on others, but wants you to be part of the in group doing it

      It’s an act of love and hatred. I don’t respect it, because I know the hatred will be turned on me soon enough, but you do have to try to understand it

      My mom would send me a dozen or more conspiracy theory links every day before I cut contact.

    Don’t want to take away the sweet nature of this post, but a person can also still be spamming lol.

      Spam is just too many pebbles. It only takes one pebble every few days to convey affection. More and perhaps you are spamming.

      My ex wife never liked it when I sent her memes, so I sent this to the person I’m sending memes back and forth with now. She seems to appreciate them a lot more.

      That has a lot of new generation not as rad as old generation energy. I have found the youth as dedicated and driven as anyone else, though naturally less knowledgeable as they are pretty new to whatever job.

      Some are incompetent, but some were incompetent in my cohort too, they don’t last long just like the ones in my cohort didn’t.
