I don’t have Muslim friends who preach for all out jihad and the destruction of American democracy.

I don’t have conservative friends who preach for all out insurrection and the destruction of American democracy.

Some choices aren’t difficult.

The point is to not be tolerant of intolerance…

I don’t agree with the fascist lifestyle. I think they should keep it behind closed doors. On another planet. Not this one.

The paradox of tolerance says if we tolerate intolerance, then intolerance will dominate. Or something.

There’s nothing a conservative hates more than being judged by who they are as people. They think that tolerance means being a complete moral vacuum and accepting any sort of malevolence and violence. This is because they see people being tolerant of PoC, queer people and non-Christians and they also see membership in those categories as moral failings.

It’s ok not tolerating intolerant people.

I have [a] conservative family.

To be conservative in 2024, you have to dismiss that some people in our community are miserable and every day we leave them to their fate is heinous.

In the US, a failure to vote [against] any given Republican (by voting [for] an opposing democrat) is another step towards autocracy and genocide. Every Republican in office is a force towards the Heritage Foundation’s 2025 project, by which they will unmake the meager democratic features and civil rights that remain in the US.

Conservatives believe, by the natural extrapolation of their positions and behavior, I have no right to exist. (Curiously, this includes my own father, who simultaneously facilitates political efforts seeking out my extinction while expressing a dissonant interest in my well-being. He doesn’t dare connect the two in his mind.)

I’d be fine with them if they weren’t constantly shoving it in our faces. Think about the children!

Isn’t Islam technically Conservative? I’m confused
