I'd love to hear a reason for supporting Prop 8 that doesn't explicitly degrade homosexual relationships. I can't think of any and I would be uncomfortable working around Prop 8 supporters (esp if I was gay). What is this nuance you speak of? Why must all issues be treated the same? Some issues are more complex than others.

I can't see this as any more than allowing punishment for having certain political beliefs... > Why must all issues be treated the same? Some issues are more complex than others. These issues are complex, they are just oversimplified to binary "with or against", "good or bad" by activists.
- pj_mukh 10y agoThis is specifically not about religion or some kind of hatred for war-hawks. Both of which are choices and therefore more complex. You are still skirting the issue. Why would someone support Prop 8 without trying to enforce some level of heteronormativity on the people around them? Until, I see any way for someone to care about who else can or cannot get married without being bigoted, this issue remains pretty binary. Deal with everything on a case-by-case basis, is my point.
- Chris2048 10y ago> Why would someone support Prop 8 without trying to enforce some level of heteronormativity This is an appeal to ignorance. Quite simply, you don't know.
