    The man is able to connect the dots of receiving lobbying money and advocating for a certain position. He should be able to connect the dots of civilians dying, and saying that’s bad. Lots of people who suffer from strokes learn to control themselves and their personality changes. Fetterman just isn’t one of them.

      We’re saying the same thing.

      An asshole is an asshole, it doesn’t matter what lead them down that path.

      Understanding why people are assholes is worth it because we learn how to deal with them, and maybe even prevent less people from becoming assholes later.

      Every society has X% of assholes, there’s never zero assholes, but it’s worth getting that number as low as possible.

      I think everyone agrees there’s more than there used to be, and would enjoy less assholes.

        I see what you’re saying. My mistake, I misinterpreted your comment. You’re honestly a better person than me that would see someone have this kind of stance and say “Let’s see where they’re coming from”. To me, it’s just another asshole that society should not even have to tolerate.
