    I don’t believe the gullible deserve to be conned, it’s just usually their fate. But I’m damn sure that since I didn’t help you get conned and tried to prevent it from happening, I don’t fucking deserve to watch my country fall apart. But I would be mildly curious to hear what, in concrete terms, these jackasses think Bonespurs is actually “doing for this country.”

      From what I get from his ramblings he wants other people to be hurt for his benefits, and by other people he means blacks, LGBTQ, immigrants, etc. and somehow harming them is somehow making his life better.

        Some people weirdly seem to think of other people’s suffering as a kind of vengeance. I think that’s the mental gyration that benefits them - not suffering feels like their reward for not being bad like those other people, but to get that reward the other people have to suffer so there’s a contrast.
