being wrong in ways that kill people, naturally, is polite

I like to repost my mother-in-law's posts about how she 100% guaranteed Russia wouldn't invade Ukraine. (From 3 months before the start of the Ukraine war.)

Is your aunt dead or does she get to live with the shame and ridicule? If she is dead, then this a definitely a way harder flex than if she isn't.

I deleted my Facebook because I would be going scorched Earth on everyone, mostly family, in my friends list. I don't associate with most of them IRL, but at least I haven't put in writing my true feeling about them and people that think like them. My thoughts are abundantly clear on Lemmy behind the veil of anonymity.
