i care about not financially supporting a person that is actively trying to disenfranchise me, why is that a difficult concept for some people? that not everyone is motivated exclusively by financial profit? is moral bankruptcy so pervasive that some people assume it is unanimous?
'They' - in this case - are those who are unable to empathize. People who only learn of other's struggles through visceral personal experience. Conservatives, in general, struggle with this class reasoning... Very much a 'if I don't experience it then it doesn't exist' kind of mentality. Frustrating and exhausting. A lack of imagination, a lack of empathy, they just are lacking in these regards.
Your comments are all in absolutes. As if this was the one thing that mattered to you, everything else is irrelevant. Don't most people make their decisions based on a balance of considerations? Dismissing half the world as nazi or fascist does not seem productive, it kinda makes you look like the insane one.
