I see so many Democrats complaining about the rapid degradation of public discourse. They fail to realize that they have been the principal catalyst. Calling your fellow American citizens sexist, racist, xenophobic, fascist, “actual” nazis, etc isn’t something people used to do back when people spoke to each other with basic dignity.
Just because people would rather keep their freedoms than go along with some crackpot authoritarian measure a leftist came up with while smoking pot with their Leninist buddies, doesn’t make them a ___insert horrible label___. Despite all the self-righteous pandering, their language amounts to nothing more than constant insult and violent innuendo. So, please don’t claim you were blind sided; or you could keep lying.
You can believe what you want, the problem is that social conservatives codify the laws to suit their morals. There shouldn't be a debate about whether or not trans-people should be able to use public bathrooms as they feel comfortable, but Group A wants to meet with people from Group B to make laws about Group C without their input or consent.
If social conservatives didn't make miscegenation laws then people might not think social conservatism is racist in nature, one of many examples to choose from.
Notice how nobody has outed conservatives who aren't racial in their beliefs, an example being George Will, a conservative who is principled and believes in low taxes and limited government. It is the conservatives that have followed the King Birther that have embraced White Identity Politics who are being called what they resemble. There is an old saying...if the shoe fits. George Bush, a Christian and someone who believes that god loves all people hasn't been called a racist or fascist, for anything he has done that the left has hated, even trying to oppress gay couples with the federal government through DOMA (another example of a Group A and a Group B making laws to hurt Group C without consent, input, or consultation from Group C) because it was done with respects to Christianity.
The conservatives who want the police to have the right to kill blacks with no accountability, check Hispanics for papers and lock em up, wanna put the gays back in their place, etc, are actually what people say they are.
Again nobody is calling principled conservatives racist and fascist. Plenty of conservatives have come through this unscathed, and then there are other conservatives who believe black lives don't matter, and they are making themselves heard.
The price for these people not being in the closet is being labeled appropriately :/
Trust me, if the GOP was about low taxes and limited government I might vote for them at this point. I pay a staggering amount of taxes now
