So you want to exclude people based on their political opinions ? How is it different from excluding Mexican immigrants from using your code ?
Trump supporters are persons you know, just like gay people, blacks or immigrants. What difference do you see between your attitude and the average Trump supporter's one ?
- seattle_spring 10y agoBeing Mexican is not a choice. Being black or being gay is not a choice. Associating and supporting someone who hates all of the above is a choice. See the difference now?
- steve_g 10y agoIs it really true that Donald Trump hates Mexicans, gay people, and black people? How do you know? That's a pretty strong accusation to make without very good evidence. This link below is a thoughtful review of some of the evidence. You are, of course, free to disagree. http://slatestarcodex.com/2016/11/16/you-are-still-crying-wolf/ http://slatestarcodex.com/2016/11/16/you-are-still-crying-wo...
- thiht 10y agoLet's say I'm a religious. It IS a choice. Is it OK to ban me from doing anything for this very reason?
- imaginenore 10y agoActually our beliefs are not a choice - they are a cumulative result of the arguments that the person has heard. If you don't believe it, try and like Trump. So you can choose to act like you like (or don't) something, but you can't choose to like (or not) something. So instead of creating better arguments in the support of your political beliefs, you're telling people to just pretend to be on your side.
