[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My neighbor is the salt of the earth. He wouldn't hesitate to give you the shirt off his back. [/b] Plus, he's a Republican. And I don't mean the country club variety. We're talking full-on InfoWars wackadoodle. We enjoy having a beer together on occasion, and we don't discuss politics. [/quote] These are narratives that need to be dismantled. I'm sure he'll give you, the friend, the shirt. But, would he give it to an addict on the streets, an immigrant, a person who kneeled at their football game, a woman wearing a Nasty Woman shirt? Maybe some really would not exclude, but my guess is that most would. This entire OP is trying to reconcile this - but people are kind to those they know and those they approve of. When it comes to everyone else a sense of unease kicks in, so they protect who and what they know. [/quote] Exactly. He has limited definition of “neighbor”. [/quote]
