7. "You put your family in that position"? So the family DESERVES to suffer?

Trump put many women in a bad position when he sexually assaulted them. I guess they deserve to be punished.

My neighbor was put in a bad position when his house was robbed and vandalized. I reckon he deserves to suffer.

The American people were put in a bad position when COVID killed more than a million of us while the Emperor fiddled. I guess they deserve what they got.

Daddy's an abusive, drunken asshole. So his children should be punished?

A hurricane hits Louisianna and thousands lose their homes, their communities. Does this mean they need the government to step in and punish them?

A corporation lays off ten thousand workers even though they are enjoying record profits. Should the government punish those workers?

Is this right? Is this what they think? That the victims of someone else's actions, the victims of circumstances, need to be punished? That our government should, instead of helping victims, punish them further?

What kind of perverse sense of justice is this? If something happens to you that you have no way of controlling, then you are legally responsible and should be held liable under the law?

What the hell planet do these freaks come from? And why do so many American citizens support them?
