no, people who don't believe in the bible generally don't love the man who literally signed the bible as if he were Jesus himself. I'm an atheist myself but I have standards. Donald Trump is a horrible misogynist.

so not only are u a bitter, ignorant, narrow-minded, bland, miserable creature. you're deliberately so, taking pride in making spiteful, obtuse comments regarding things u don't have the slightest little bit of knowledge about. mhm okay gotcha. what a sad and embarrassing life, being so affected by strangers who don't even know u exist, and their choices. constantly projecting ur own hateful self-loathing onto everyone around u in rancorous desperation to drag everyone into ur gloom. my condolences but nobody agrees. u are alone in this statement, just like u are alone in this world. pathetic, pitiful and completely intolerable

Where I used to live, in a city of more than a million people, there was a homeless population that mostly wandered around aimlessly downtown. I'm not sure that turning people with severe mental illness loose to fend for themselves is kinder than putting them in a hospital. At least they'd be fed, clothed, and sleeping in a bed instead of under a stairwell in a parking garage. I'm not sure what the answer is, but there must be something between the two extremes that would be better for them.

Hey Pandas, Which Thing Annoys You The Most About Having Mental Illness?

The stigma of taking medications to keep from being suicidally depressed, and "merely" depressed instead. "Oh. You take pills..." And the sneering judgment is just like little knives in my soul.
