    The difference between black people, Jewish people, or transgender people and conservatives is that you choose to be an asshole conservative. You don’t choose to be black, (ethnically) Jewish, or transgender.

    And comparing the systematic abuse those groups have suffered under to the complete lack of abuse conservatives haven’t suffered is honestly disgusting. The conservatives helped cause that abuse. Don’t compared the abused to their abusers.

      If you think that I am here defending conservative point of view, you have entirely missed the point.

      I am arguing against a point of view that judges individuals by the groups they belong to rather than their personal actions, to the point where EVEN IF THEY REPENT AND CHANGE THEIR POSITION, they are still subhuman and are only doing it for some selfish motive and cannot ever gain humanity again.

      I think many Democrats would rather that conservatives would DIE than that individuals would change their heart. And I think that’s really sad.

        If they want to change their positions, great! Fantastic! Love it!

        Just don’t expect me to immediately believe you. Or to immediately embrace you because you suddenly care now that it affects you and your family.

        And that still doesn’t make comparing people with a chosen political position with groups that have experienced actual physical harm and systemic abuse not absolutely disgusting amounts of BS.
