She was likely a victim of the maga extremism indoctrination and social media, this is a bit distasteful

    "Just following orders" is not an excuse no matter how it's veiled.

    She took part in a violent insurrection with the ultimate goal of overturning an election and destroying democracy.

    She had every opportunity to no being a cesspool of bigotry, racism and fascist supporter. Instead she chose at every option to continue her path.

    idk how else to downplay supporting trump at this point.

    public shaming is the last line of defense we have against these types of people since polite conversation clearly doesn't work once you put the red hat on. what alternatives do you suggest? 🙂

    Youre not going to convince a fascist not to be a fascist by making them feel bad about it. If that was possible, there'd be no communists.

    Organising in your community, your workplace, and looking after yourself is what i think our friend was getting at

    You're so right, she obviously doesn't deserve to be derided, we should show her love and support because she died, it wasn't her fault she was indoctrinated like this.

    For good measure, let's posthumously pardon the Nazis that murdered hundreds or thousands of people and were later killed when their camps were taken. They were just victims of the Nazi extremism indoctrination and media, it's a bit distasteful that people still slander them /s

    The sexualisation and humiliation of a person who cant object or consent is whats getting me.

    people will excuse themselves of a lot when they don't like someone.

    I abaolutely do not care that she died, and her politics cant be handwaved away with 'she was indoctrinated', which would also equate to her having no agency. She knew what she was doing.
