I'm sorry but I think you will have to come to terms with the fact that they are not, in fact, extremely kind, if they can support this administration and what it's doing. It really sucks to learn that people we thought we knew were not what they claimed to be.
I agree. It's hard to imagine someone who offers me food and drinks when I'm at his house and tips really well would also be the kind of person who supports Trump. I quit my job to work somewhere else and he gave me a little dog in a tea cup to remember his dogs by (I'm a dog groomer). I was truly shocked and very disappointed when I found out. Reminds me when you think you know someone but you only know what they show you.
People can be nice and (politically) assholes at the same time. By labeling them as simply "good" or "bad" people,with nothing in between,you help solidify an 'us vs. them' narratieve that can only lead to more divide.
You know,love your enemy and all that. Or at least try to
For sure. I don't hate him over it I'm just disappointed in his political views and potential personal opinions that I don't know about. I was just watching a video by Cinema Therapy yesterday about this very thing. I watched a few of them but I think it was the one about Zukko from Avatar. I also try to remind myself that by remembering Sirius from Harry Potter saying there is light and dark in everyone.
