[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I listened to a speech by Meloni. She sounds amazing. She wants people to be proud of themselves and their culture.

That isnt fascism. We have pride parades, pride month, a pride flag. If you can be proud of your sexuality, you can be proud of other parts of your identity. She is right, people want to make you erase your identity and be told who you are. Shes right to encourage people to fully embrace their identities. [/quote]

Except the entire argument is based on a strawman. No one wants to take away her Christianity, motherhood, or feminine identity. She is saying “be proud” of these things because things she doesn’t agree with - secularism, child-free lifestyle, shifting gender and sexual identities - are “wicked” and need to be destroyed. She’s adopted a First Strike doctrine to restrict personal choice and liberties that, at its heart, is based on a series of lies.[/quote]

Unfortunately, I know people heavily involved in the ‘values’ that LGBTQ ‘inspires’. Hateful and nasty doesn’t even begin to describe it. There’s no room for tolerance of any kind because if you don’t keep up with the jargon du jour, you are bigoted, etc. This is not a tolerant group of people, sadly. It’s their way or the highway. I have always had a ‘you do you’ attitude, but I DO feel this movement does NOT. They want to be them and you have to go along with it all - their way or the highway. They think nothing of destroying lives and livelihoods over simple errors, especially if you are involved in education or entertainment. These aren’t values, this is a movement. What you are seeing in Italy is a backlash against that.[/quote]

Ok so what’s the “backlash” going to involve? State clearly what you intend to do to LBGTQ people and families. Stop beating around the bush like a coward.

Ps - don’t interact with LBGTQ folks if you don’t like their lifestyle. That’s all reactionary conservatives need to do. Instead, y’all are determined to resurrect the worst dregs of fascist ideology from history as part of your “backlash.” Why can’t you just be chill?[/quote]

Hilarious. As I stated, I have a ‘you do you’ attitude. I really don’t CARE what people do with their lives. I have a problem when someone tries to destroy someone else because they have a different set of values. This means, in my mind, if Christians, conservative Jews, etc. don’t want to adopt the LGBTQ lifestyle, or don’t feel they want to use the pronouns, they should not be forced to do so. On the other hand, if someone chooses not to verify the LGBTQ lifestyle in exactly the manner that LGBTQ want them to, it become all out war. Why can’t they just be chill and let people think individually?[/quote]

If I called you a pig to your face every time I spoke to you then you would just smile and nod, right? You do you and all.

But of course you wouldn’t put up with being disrespected like that in real life. [/quote]

I do all the time. And I smile and nod. Why engage with idiocy?[/quote]

Define all the time. You have someone in your life who harasses you daily and you just smile without complaint? And is it someone in a position of authority over you?[/quote]

As a conservative in the DC area, it’s not unusual to be harassed. I don’t hide that I’m a conservative. Given the amount of leftists in this area, and the amount of intolerance, yes, it can be on a daily basis. My spouse is a leftist. I don’t’ know if that constitutes power over me, but suffice it to say he thinks less of me than the other way around, because I don’t think politics fully defines someone. [/quote]

Please give examples of how you are "harassed" for being a conservative.[/quote]
