I think it's easy for people to disregard the values and life experience of those they don't know, and I think this is an example of that.
A perfect example is where your view falls apart is abortion. If one believes it's murder, then one believes the left leaning half of America is out to murder babies. If one genuinely believes that, and many people do, what then could Trump do that's worse? You look at the parties and see one that is ok murdering babies, and one that is not. That's what they see.
When you start throwing around absolutes based on personal moral values, you're ignoring that other people may have different values than you. You're classifying a bunch of people simply as nazi sympathizers when in reality they may just want to save babies.
- eyelidlessness 6y agoYou have no idea who I know or what my life experiences are. I’m from the people you’re talking about. I was one. I’m not in a silo. I’m the product of their upbringing. While they may believe abortion is murder, there’s cold video evidence of the nazis. It’s not a matter of opinion. They chose to stand along with nazis in their belief about when human life is human life. Not my fucking framework, and I don’t have to accept it as any more viable than the lives they mistakenly believe are.
- BobbyJo 6y agoWhere in my post did I comment did I claim to know you? Also, you're conflating evidence and belief. There is video evidence of nazis yes. There is also video evidence of abortions. You believe nazis are wrong. They believe abortions are wrong-er. I'm not saying you have to accept it as your framework, I'm just saying each of us have our ethical code, and which one is 'correct' is much fuzzier than your anger is fit to portray.
