I absolutely do not support racists, bigots, and fascists. Again, you stating they are doesn't make them so, just because you don't agree with what they say

I disagree.

They are given 6 months' paid Secret Service protection, & then President Biden extended hers even longer.

You have no idea how I feel or act. Stop assuming things of people you know nothing about.

You claiming someone is intolerant doesn't make them so, just because you disagree with them.

I agree with you on 1, but I disagree with you on 2. I don't agree that the implementation is racist, & I don't agree that what was voted for was racist. We can again agree to disagree on that.

No. The clickbait articles don't give you the entire story. Due process was already given by judges denying their asylum claims & ordering them to leave the country years earlier.

Again, no one is doing that. Clickbait articles don't tell the actual story.

Except that no one is trying to do that.

If it's actual hate, of course. But saying someone is racist, bigoted, or misogynistic because they don't see things the way you do doesn't make them so, e.g. Not wanting unchecked illegal immigration doesn't mean someone is racist, when they have no problem with legal immigration whatsoever.

I agree with you. The problem, though, is when people declare what other people's beliefs or intentions are based on who they vote for, when they know nothing about the person & haven't asked what the person actually believes. I appreciate the conversation with you, my friend.

We will just need to agree to disagree regarding guns, my friend.

1. Everyone does have access, due to the ACA being required if you have no other insurance
2. No
3. The rich already pay the majority of taxes. As of last year in the US, the top 1% pay 45.8% of taxes, the top 50% pay 97.7% & the bottom 50% pay a whopping 2.3%
4. Of course

1. Definitely
2. Not sure what you're referring to, but the only problem with not using money for politics is that presidential candidates need it to pay for the campaign trail
3. Russia, of course
4. No
5. There are plenty of gun regulations. Mental health & other issues need to be addressed

1. I can't easily explain this here, because I agree with both sides of this issue, & that's very hard to reconcile
2. Of course
3. Yes. History being taught should include everything that affects our country

Uh, no - YOU are acting like a total asshole & apparently incapable of having a civilized conversation. Take care.

I was limited to the number of characters I could use in my response. Good gracious!

No one threw a "seig heil," and if you actually believe that, then you are not willing or able to have a reasonable conversation. Take care.

About what specifically?

I don't know the specifics of that, which could be different than how it appears. Presidents Obama & Biden also deported a lot of illegal immigrants & yet many people are saying it's costing lives to send illegal immigrants back to their countries now, because President Trump is doing it.

Of course transgender people deserve support & gender-affirning healthcare. The question is at what age should that start. As there are thousands who regret having their privates cut off when they were just trying to figure out who they were as children, then we need to not make mistakes. That's all

But you saying they're hateful bigots & that they hate others doesn't make it so. That's the whole point. You need to ask people exactly how they think about something & not just assume what media and social media says they are thinking about something is accurate.

That is completely incorrect. VP Vance sent very nice posts & it seems that the only people who matched his energy were Conservatives. I saw one person who asked him a legitimate & respectful question. The rest (who aren't Conservatives) were just nasty.

I didn't do any of the sort, and all of you have been anything but polite company.

Except you claiming that anyone who doesn't think like you is intolerant is the problem. Have an actual meaningful conversation with someone & ask them what they actually think (not what the media & social media tells you they think)

I'm not hateful & have never been bigoted. You know nothing about me. Try having a meaningful conversation with someone & ask them what they actually think (not what the media & social media tells you they think)

Except you claiming that anyone who doesn't think like you is intolerant is the problem. Have an actual meaningful conversation with someone & ask them what they actually think.(not what the media & social media tells you they think).

I can't help my hairline, my friend. But thank you for the love.

No, you don't. You have no clue. And voting for someone does not equal agreeing on everything they say or do.

I was just curious about what people post on here. But I found that, even though Bluesky is touted to be so loving & tolerant, when anyone posts something someone disagrees with, people are just as nasty as they are on X. So, I just don't come here very often.
