"I liked his policies, mainly his support for education and affordable housing, said Shirley Wong, 70, of Bensonhurst, referring to Mamdani. "He seems to listen to us."
But less than a year ago, Wong cast her ballot for Trump. She cited the influx of migrants in her neighborhood, as well as the cost of living under President Joe Biden. But now, Wong said she regretted voting for Trump, citing the Big Beautiful Bill's projected cuts to Medicaid
It's a reference to a silly story where the lesson is to not be a judgemental shithead just because someone else fucked up.
Yeah it's the bible. I don't care if God is real or not, nor your opinion on it. I also use references from the writings of Vonnegutt, the music Dolly Parton, and 90s anime.
Because you can get moral lessons from fiction. We do it all the time. My reference isn't even that deep. But somehow the ten word literary cudgel I bludgeoned you with still didn't make the point. It's a cautionary statement.
You are acting like the crowd of shitheals that wanted to stone a woman to death, just like in the biblical story. That's not a good look nor is it a good indication of your 'moral compass'. Sorry I thought you could infer that from my one sentence quote from a very well distributed piece of literature.
I never expressed any desire for harm to Shirley. I want guilt to eat her alive. You're also claiming she fucked up like it was an accident, and it wasn't. She's a shitty person and Idgaf if it's a bad look to express that out loud. If she were to come out and genuinely try to repent for her actions and express true remorse, I'd say she has learned something and hopefully will do better, but that's not what's happening.
