I take small umbrage with the idea that you cannot support LGBTQ people and vote in a way that doesn’t support your personal beliefs.
I don’t care.
You cannot vote to make someone’s life measurably worse, and claim to support them.
That’s not my “personal beliefs”, this is people’s lives and wellbeing.
We are all of us paradoxical and hypocritical.
That is fair. And that is why I pity this person. And why I’m not talking about Leopards Eating People’s Faces. This person was clearly troubled.
That doesn’t change what I’m saying though. I’m not trying to morally judge this individual with what I’m saying. All I am saying is that the net effect of the actions of someone who votes Republican, is not supportive of LGBT people, regardless of their personal beliefs.
Maybe they weren’t pro-republican they were anti-democrat. I don’t fucking know.
That’s worse. You understand how that’s worse, right?
This one person could have been very pro-trans and yet still support the Republican agenda in every other way.
Human rights are pretty much a deal-breaker. Or at least they should be.
Plus, we don’t know if they were pro-trans or LGBTQ, all that we know is that they were not publically anti-trans.
You have misinterpreted my comment. I’m not trying to judge this person.
I’m making a general statement that it is not possible to support a demographic while simultaneously voting to take away their legal recognitions and protections.
