Why NOT to vote Republican

Those who are so fast to label actions “hate “ think social media is actually real life. So far it is not thank goodness.

Pretty scary that the UK is prosecuting people for what they post on social media and quietly praying at abortion clinics. All are a bridge too far as is Minnesota’s plan.

I think it's more like people who are filled with love and compassion, yet derided for adhering to free thought, may be concerned that our state and federal governments are building an infrastructure similar to parts of Europe. Currently in the UK, people have been arrested for silently praying outside abortion clinics. It's apparently a short step from "hate speech" (as defined by authoritarians) and "hate thought", which must be punished by the power of the state.

How about working in the same building as a Planned Parenthood and having "Pro lifers" intimidating not only people trying to get medical help ( abortions were not performed at that particular office) but also patients going to see the dentist ( where I worked) How about Pro lifers calling in bomb threats at the same office, when we did sedation dentistry. The whole block of apartments, restaurants, a veterinary clinic and our building had to be evacated . Is that your idea of free speech? This was in the "Operation Rescue" in the Terry Randall era and his pack of flying monkeys. Have you any idea how scary that is?

Those experiences are terrible. I am sorry you experienced this.

I Support, everyone in carrying out their right to protest. That means staying on public property, holding signs, chanting, singing, but not impeding the movement of humans or traffic. Certainly bomb threats and real or threatened acts of violence go way beyond acts of free speech.

“hating certain people for existing” is a ridiculous overstatement showing you are neither honest nor sincere in discourse.

And ignoring that Alan called the bud light trans woman spokesperson an ugly man shows the same about you.

Ldahl’s kid would appreciate not being reduced to an ideological game piece by any species of culture warrior.

He'd probably also appreciate his father calling out people who call trans women ugly men for being the assholes they are. Feel free to ask him his thoughts on the subject and get back to us if I'm wrong.

Am I allowed to think Dylan Mullaney’s act is dumb and insulting to women without you telling me I hate Ms.Dylan for existing?

You can think whatever you want. How others like me think about you as a result is out of your control.

I agree. What’s that saying? “What others think of me is none of my business.”

I just wish you didn’t share your hatred of others so frequently.

I don't think I ever said Dylan Mulvaney was ugly, although I did express my thought that the character being portrayed seems to be a parody of women. I'm not sure how that translates to "hate" in your mind.
