I'm seeing a lot of differing opinions from the #LGBTQ Mastodon community about Pat Robertson dying.
While I certainly have no sympathy for the man, I find it absolutely grotesque how many people are going out of their way to celebrate his death.
Relief and indifference are acceptable responses. But if a human being dying elates you, you might be due for some serious introspection, because that seems to me to be the first step down a very dark path.
To dehumanize our enemies is to become them.
@adriennelacava Killing and celebrating death aren't the only ways to purge evil. They're not even in the top 5.
@adriennelacava You'd be very fucking wrong, so take your self-righteous projections and assumptions elsewhere.
@LouisIngenthron Maybe your thinking is too lofty to get the feeling. But I’m curious, what did you do to purge the world of Pat Robinson during all these decades? Or the mindset of hatred he cast, the harm he caused? I suspect you didn’t intervene to shut him up or somehow dismantle his empire… Thoughts and prayers? Wait, were you one of his believers?? 🫢 Oops.
Still no guilt.
