you can't be bigoted against white conservatives /s believe me, the liberals and progressives I work with in the tech industry are just as bigoted if not worse than anyone I met growing up in the midwest. They outright dehumanize the "other" ie conservatives with complete blindness to the hypocrisy.

Really? They beat up conservatives and vote for laws to prevent them from getting married or health care?

  I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but mobs of liberal activists assaulted Trump supporters in San Jose after a rally. Trump is openly supportive of LGBTQIA+++ people, was the first Republican presidential nominee to be, and was supportive of them long before Hillary and Obama were. Healthcare does not automatically equate to socialized healthcare, and it is ignorant and arrogant to make a blanket characterization that voting for a Republican is a vote against "healthcare", whatever that's supposed to mean.

    >but mobs of liberal activists assaulted Trump supporters in San Jose after a rally. Trump supporters were assaulted, that much is factual. The notion that they were a) liberal b) activists, is not a notion you can support with facts.

        You're running off on tangential points about absolutely nothing. Your original point was that your professional colleagues were bigoted against white conservatives. Now you're talking about politically-motivated violence in general and your critique of the courts and the mainstream media. Did you get everything off of your chest yet? Did you or your alternate account have any other grievances that you wanted list?
